OTF's Blue Publication May 2007
Oh, what to say about the Senate these days? A quote from a song comes to mind; "there was arguments, scraps, some killings perhaps". Usually employed by me to describe the more quiet tea-parties I've attended, it fits the Senate rather well this month. We have argued quite a bit. I always say that's a good sign, though, and circumstantial evidence agree with me, possibly because it's too afraid to do anything else. But hey, we even got some work done, can't be that bad.
Most of this work has centred on the celebrations for 30 years of Star Wars, more details thereof in the possibly bloody aftermath next month. We did already have a Trivia, surprisingly won by Hobbie - only because I wasn't there, of course. Stupid dial-up. Shut up, it's not an excuse, it's a genuine reason. Anyway. We've also updated the website to some extent, and are working on the remainder now. It's a somewhat slow process, but since I'm one of the main people involved in it, that shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. Aside from that we've been mainly involved in sneaking upon Hobbie unawares and writing "I am the Walrus" on his forehead in permanent marker. The best so far was KypD, she got as far as the "h", it took him ages to get it off and you can still see it in the right lighting. Hah.
And lastly, a public service announcement. I just want to stress that if there's anything you want to see in the CCC or the Star Wars genre at OTF in general, let us know. If you have ideas for events or other changes and gimmicks you'd like to see implemented, tell us. We are, after all, here for the members of the Star Wars genre, that's the whole point. No, it's not the free champagne, honestly. I don't like champagne anyway, yuck.
Clear skies!
