Reviews:
Howeird reviewed a film festival in Morgan Hills, featuring an amazing
Lear, and was worth the drive & said 'Last Woman on Earth' didn't have
enough clothing removed and was fun
Lynn reviewed her job as suckitudeiness
Chris reviewed his menu as the artist is a future BASFAn & reviewed
season 8 of the Simpsons as the finest example of art ever done & that
'Twin Peaks' is still weird & all worth full price
Eric did a remote review for Joni as 'friends don't let friends fly US
Air' and to take Greyhound instead
Andy reviewed 'Torchwood' as still worth breaking the law for and it
looks like they're ramping up for a big climax & reviewed the Phaser
8550 dp color crayon-jet printer as screaming fast [30 pages a minutes
in color at basic resolution] with gorgeous output & definitely worth buying
[evil] Kevin reviewed his first ever Baycon staff meeting as Chris
Garcia has permission to chase him with sticks if he ever runs a meeting
that is half that long
Carole reviewed physical therapy as it sucks but is helping her move
much better
We auctioned off a bag of King for $0.75, other books for $2.50, $0.25,
a video for $0.25, magazines for $0.25 & a book and a ducky for $4.00
We adjourned at = 9:28 pm
And the rumor of the week was = 'we can all do better than that'
