Template

Here's a little script template for everyone to work from. If you have a manner that works better for you, by all means use it. The important thing is getting the idea down, we can always refine the rest of it later.

The Anarchist Meeting

Bill the Anarchist (Stands at podium with a big Anarchist "A" behind him on a wall)
I'd like to welcome you all to the 37th annual Anarchist Roundup, our first speaker today is Anarchist Author Jacob Bones. Jacob....

Jacob
Thanks Bill. (Pulls some cards from his coat) I've prepared some thoughts for today...

Anarchist 1
(Interrupting) Prepared! That don't sound very anarchist to me!

Anarchist 2
He's one of them! Shoot him!

(Yelling and gun fire erupts killing speaker)

Another Anarchist
(Stands up on dais and tried to calm the crowd) Whoa everyone....Let's calm down a bit here, lets get some order?!

Anarchist 1
Order?! He's one of them too!

(More gun fire that eventually trails off)

(Bill carefully steps back in as he looks around nervously)

Bill
Well, ummm... that's enough for the speeches for today, thanks for coming…there are food tickets under your plates, the Molotov cocktails are complimentary.

New Year

I hope everyone had a happy new year and merry christmas (and also a happy kwanzaa). I am going to start hounding everyone once again to get some work done. I'd like to see up really up and running by the end of January. Emails are coming soon.

Ok Kids

Let's starting sending stuff. I may have a place for us to perform once we get up and running, but we need to get started. Send me what you've got and let's see where we can go from here.

Meetin' Time!

I trust everyone had a pleasant Thanksgiving. I hope you didn't. Incredibly bad holidays with families are always great fodder for humor. Let's try to meet Friday at seven again. Who can make it? Who can't? Let me know. Also, let's start sending me some stuff you've written so we can all share.

Happy Holidays... now get to work!

Hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving. Here's something to work on for next week. Put together one sketch. If you only come up with an idea, flesh it out as much as you can, but otherwise write out a complete sketch. When you finish, send it along to me and we'll go from there. Gary's already done this, but he can send more if he wants. Get to work everyone.

Meeting

Thanks to Chris and Dawn who made it on Friday. We had a good little get together and we managed to upset a righteous Oregonian who heard part of an ironic conversation and took it to be serious.

Apparently I am a culturally insensitve bastard because I suggested that the United States was right to shift the Indians from Oklahoma after we found oil there because it would have been overwhelming for the Indians to do all the exploring, and mining and refining and that the money would have soiled their simple lifestyle.

Next week I'll be proposing that we should be able to shoot crippled people at will because they are slowing down the nation as a whole from being as efficient as we could be.

Ok Then

So, if we shoot for something next Friday night, say 7, who could make it and who could not?

Minutes: Quiet Times

3pm: Arrived
3:01: Ordered hot chocolate...really good hot chocolate for $2
3:04-3:17 Waited
3:17-3:23 Cried
3:23-3:29 Continued crying while writing out minutes so I wouldn't forget
3:30 Tripped older man with cane, momentarily felt better
3:40 Went home

Meeting Today @ 3

Not sure how many of you will make it, but I'll post a summery of events when I get home to keep you all up to date. If you have any suggestions for me as to how we can make the process easier for any of you, email me or leave a comment.
