The Psi Phi donation to Habitat for Humanity was $20.01.

No Report Committee:

Anti-Joel will not be able to deliver this report next semester, as he will be taking a class that will probably extend into our meeting time.
Bryce gives tonight's report: "Yabba-dabba-dabba, k-k-k-k-k-k-k..."; the latter statement apparently is from Space Ghost Coast to Coast.
Joel notes that hot chocolate is good.

Communications Officer:

Constable:

Grand Nagus:

The Nagus will not be stealing from the treasury *this* week.
The current balance is $464.26.
In the spirit of capitalism, the Nagus is selling the balance of his time to Landon.
Landon says that War of Shadows and Haange will be played at B-Con.
Bryce says that anyone who wants to buy fudge from Circle K can contact him.
Laura talks about buying a wooden flamingo for Homecoming. Carl motions to buy one, but the motion is put off for new business.
Joel gets kicked.

Chief of Operations:

First Officer:

No report, as the First Officer is apparently conspicuously absent. {Editor's note: It's OK; she was studying.}

Captain:

"Letters" is sung by the club.
Mail:
- A note from Student Senate, reminding us of the "Speak Up" campaign on November 29
- A letter from T.E.A.M. Bradley for a leadership retreat in January
The Douglas Adams QotW is from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: "The best way to get a drink out of a Vogon is to stick a finger down his throat."

Carl motions to buy a flamingo for $25.
A short skirmish breaks out between Laura and Carl and Joel and Landon over embezzling.
The motion stalemates 6-6, with 2 abstentions.
We decide to table the motion until next meeting, when we can find out toward what the money would be going.
It is hereby noted that there will be no meeting next week, November 21, due to Thanksgiving break.
It is also hereby noted that the SBAM is completely assembled and laminated.
