So are checks accepted for registration fees? I didn't see it anywhere on the site.

OK cool. I doubt I'll have to but it's nice to know just in case I can't get to the bank for whatever reason...

What will be going on at this meeting? I may have to take a pass given that there's a two-day thing going on that I need to hit in Tigard and I'll probably miss the first day in favor of Keep Portland Weird.

You guys make it hard to have a social life at school... But I'll try and be back for it... >_>

Pshaw!
Weekends are for road trips!
What are you spending your weeknights on, homework!?
What kind of college student are you? You do homework during your other classes and in the half hour before it's due!

Gosh I'm glad I'll get paid that weekend, otherwise I might not have the ten bucks. My budget has been harsh on me lately.

Will the board be able to announce who they've appointed to the other 4 positions at this meeting? I want to start working with the Facilities Liaison as soon as they are assigned.

I know you have been inconvenienced. I am prepared to compensate you. Shall we say one million American dollars?


They are increasing the staff reg rate from $10 to $1,000,000. Inflation's a bitch...

As of this post, most of the videos are up.

The last part of the meeting actually has a corrupted file for some reason so I can't get it online.
The last section is everything after DancingTofu's suggestions of a live concert series. I will see if I can grab a couple parts to get as much as possible up.

I'm sorry.

Meeting went pretty well.  By the way, I finally got around to having my foot looked at by a doctor and a fancy machine.  Turns out it's only badly sprained, no fractures.  Still waiting for confirmation of this from a radiologist though. :P

Jo and I hope to have the meeting minutes up by the end of the day, there is some debate as to what kind of format to make them viewable in, and what my webhost will and will not allow.  In the meantime, if there's any questions, feel free to PM me.

Hey all, Wes here. I missed meeting (stupid working, who needs a job.<) So I have in my garage the AL suit from FMA. That was left at Kumori-Con Lite. I will be posting info all around. If you know who this belongs to. Please pm me on here. I want this out of my garage!!!! If this is not called on. I might burn it or send it to circle 7 of hell, or give it up to auction at kc-09 or something. But PLEASE contact me if u own this item, or you know who this belongs to.

Thanks all!

The Al Suit was supposedly sold at kcon-lite, there was a girl who made it fixing it in the panel room when I left at six. I'm not sure who she sold it to.
