CLOSING - we closed at 4pm, can you believe it? A 2hour meeting. That must be a
record.
Anyhoo, that's it today. Next meeting is on SUNDAY NOVEMBER 16th at 3pm.
Oh, don't forget about the web page stuff, and write what you were assigned to
write. It's
due at the next meeting, so Miller has something to do. I've decided that writing
up the minutes
after each meeting is my way of contributing to the web page writing. Miller, you
can post the minutes
if you wish.
Once again, direct all complaints to Miller, as he nominated me for this lovely
job. And don't heckle me for any
mistakes like you heckled poor Neal for his mistake.
See you all later,
MONICA
ps. someone took my phone list, so if I could get one at the next meeting....
