Subject:  SWILnews, # 6 (I am not a SWILnews I am a freemason!!!)

Just thought we'd get in one more SWILnews to cheer your emptying mailboxes
and start the break with an official fanfare:

SPRING  BREAK OFFICIAL FANFARE:     Bleat!!!   (nice goat!!!)

     The Grotesque (who at this hour of the morning is probably in some
bizzare form of sleep-deprived semi-conciousness which I'm sure he'd be
just thrilled to relate to you over lunch)  has mentioned that we don't
actually have a budget for all of this movie renting we've been doing and
that consequently one slightly sonambulant non-member has been picking up
the tab for all of this.   After some debate, it was decided that each SWIL
non-member  will  contribute $1.00 to the semester's rental fund if he, she
or it can spare it.  A couple of people have offered to put in for anyone
that can't although that might simply have been the hawaiian blue kicking
in and making the masses giddy.  In any case, put in a dollar if you can
and don't operate heavy machinery after drinking hawaiian blue.  On the
subject of financial finagling, Larry assured us that this year's budget
(which will include a video fund) is being submitted today.  What's left
after it goes through the Budget Committee will be announced in a few
weeks.  

"You dress like a woman, you stupid haggis!"

     Yes, _Highlander_ was shown in Kirby to much fanfare ["bleat!!!"
_NICE_ goat!!! -L]  and announced with many spiffy signs  --thank you
Jere7my.   Plans for post-break movies include _Sleeper_  and others which
we should really work into a schedule that we can post in the weekley news
or something.  Literature is going to obtain a more recent Kirby Schedule
so that we can plan double features and such.   By the way, you want to be
entertained while walking through Parrish, read the Public Relations board.
 There's a society column on it which contains an article on an annual
haggis festival attached to the alum's picture they were posting.  (good
way to get your PDC's - it's Pretty Darn Cool.) 

   Jere7my informs us that Mike Jitlov's appearence here is doubtful,
seeing as how  Forum for Free Speech gave us $75.00 to bring him.  * sigh*
["BLEAT!!!"  _DOWN_ goat!  -L]  Besh was at College Bowl this weekend so
reunion discussions have been tabled until after break.  A list of who's
coming will be sent out soon.  Oh, and to any of you who have T-shirt
designs, send them in , voting will take place the meeting after break. 
Ditto to BEM submissions, get them in.

  We are currently waiting for a key for George.   Tedddd is giving us the
key and suggests that we keep it at Ben West to be signed out.  Charles is
negotiating thisbecause it's pretty lame to keep the key at Ben West if we
have a locker for it.  Tedddd is giving us the key on condition that we
share the room with  the people who do RA interviews and such (the acronym
escapes me).  This may prove tricky as they moved George into the sound
machine to conduct the RA interviews.   Charles is also talking to Teddd 
about keeping people from moving George.  Until then we have Schrodinger's
Geroge C. Hurliman Memorial Library  Memorial Library : there's a 50
percent chance of it being in the correct room. [and a slightly smaller
chance of there being a dead cat in the typewriter -L]  

  Michael Brus was dismembered after reading off ten reasons why he should
be, mostly having to do with injuries sustained by being Todd West's
roomate.  We are placing the mutilated pieces on Dave Sobel's pillow.  
Unfortunately, Todd West and Mike Scott will have to make it to another
three meetings before such an honor is granted to them.  

  Non-Swil business included the news that Luke was down for services and
that Dan Wells is happily on his way to Malaysia.  Jere7my will annnounce
what he is showing after break... "BLEAT!" ... after break.
Larry , Blue, Robert, Geoff, Don and others performed a stirring
re-enactment on the table of the banquet scene from last week's Babylon 5. 
Consensus:  they are cute, in an annoying sort of way.  Have a good break,
everyone.
