On the agenda for today - T-shirts and fundraisers.
Ben's not here so Aaron's running the show today.
T-shirts aren't ready yet; on Monday the designs were given to Tiffany. The idea is "a playground version of DGH". Lots of little details. Evan seems to be very willing to mention that PEOPLE ARE NOT AT THE MEETING WHERE ARE THEY
Neelam shows up just as Evan is saying that she's not here. The design is "DGH made out of things you would normally find on a playground, like slides and ladders and things like that. [...] No slogan [...] White on dark green, not sure if anyone has a problem with that." They haven't gotten it on the computer and cleaned up (that's Tiffany's part).
We have to come up with a gift to present to Mr. DelGiorno at the donor party being arranged.
"Is this seriously an idea?" "I don't even know what it is, but no." - Anna, in response to Tex's discussion of the DGH calendar. Tex then proceeds to make several amusing sexual puns referencing Chinese buns and DGH men. So yeah, this idea is pretty much DOA.
The house auction is also a good fundraiser, typically - people can auction off (non-sexual) services, products, pretty much anything. There are usually really good deals there, and you'd be surprised how much useless stuff people are wiling to buy to support the house too!
Tex's in-house poker tournament is on the Friday of reading period, December 4th. He'll start advertising for that soon. If it's popular enough, then it may turn into a quarterly thing. Anna isn't 100% comfortable doing it that reading period since it might impede upon quiet hours but they'll talk about it. This also can't be inter-house since we'd have to get the approval of the housing office and... well, they probably wouldn't be receptive to gambling.
Maybe a Smash Brothers tournament could be run as an inter-house event? We'd charge an entrance fee and could maybe award a plaque or trophies to the winners.
Sam: [Explanation of timed modes in Smash Bros. games]
Anna: Okay, well, Sam, you wanna run it?
Sam: Damn. Okay.
We'll probably schedule everything (poker tournament, auction, Christmas market, etc) in one weekend as part of a larger "House Activities Weekend".
The Box is, again, DOA. It comes up every house meeting and people very quickly move onto the next topic. Good night, sweet prince.
Tex wants to lead a house trip to see the Boondock Saints 2 sometime. Movie night in general hasn't been very successful; various reasons are proposed as to why it's not doing well. Obviously it's because Katie's movie choices suck.
Anna accuses Charles of lying. Because he does. A lot. Matt Southward sucks too. A lot.
Dan & Anna have not yet labeled their dishes; their dishes are KOS. Gentle reminder: label your dishes tonight or tomorrow because confiscation will start on Tuesday.
HOUSE MEETING
Anna is so angry at me help
No alcohol at the poker tournament?! Wow, what a lame event. $10 buy-in, half of the pot goes to the house, the other half goes to the top 3 (40-30-25). Wait, that doesn't add up to 100. Someone's skimming a little off the top.
Tex might be going to Boondock Saints 2 downtown this weekend at the AMC River East. The official day is Thursday, though they might be doing it, you know, actually on the weekend.
We should have a suggestion box in the lounge. That's going on the agenda next week. Also our movies suck so far.
