GIS – Meeting notes December 12, 2006
The meeting was opened with a few glasses of wine and a welcome from Jay. Ben and Neil introduced the topic for the night – Modern Comedy. You Tube was the first topic point then leading into: Will Ferrell’s trilogy of comedic characters, Jackie Gleason, SNL, Bill Murray, Adam Sandler, and trends within SNL.
Mr. Nicholls explained the TV queue and how lawyers, scoundrels, and accountants run the show (no pun intended). The TV queue made even more sense when someone tossed around an example of David Spade’s success.
Anthony brought up his intentions of shooting/producing a comedy which led the discussion toward how the Good Idea Society should be a supportive crutch for members taking action in interests.
From something with substance we changed toward a lighter subject, farts. Flatulants, crop dusting, breaking wind, passing wind, butt coughs, southerly wind, morning thunder, cutting the cheese, stepping on a toad, cutting loose, air bubble, gassers, stinkers, air biscuits, low-flying ducks, barking spiders, rotten eggs, wet ones, poots, pump, trump, parp and biff, etc.
Full House and the formulaic properties of hit sitcoms.
The Daily Show with John Stewart, Colbert Report, etc.
We closed on the topic and informally discussed ideas for meetings and how the secretary should post meeting notes more promptly in the future!!
Next Meeting 01.09.07 Happy New Year!
Your favorite secretary <3 Jeff

excellent recap sir.
I just wanted to add that I dislike that "Borat" guy...I cannot recall the actor's name, but I don't care to as I feel his humour is bitter and based on "laughing at' rather than "laughing with or for". He's a jerk for making it his style, just because he can come up with these cool obscure "foreign" accents that afford us the opportunity to find humor in his stereotypical " cahracters"...what an asshole!
I wish I had spelled characters correctly....
