Opening:
The regular meeting of MERL was called to order at 5:09 p.m. on May 5, 2010 by HB40.
Attending:
HB40 (hereinafter referred to as eddie's bitch)
edmontonsubbie (herinafter referred to as eddie)
Anonymous Pooner 1 (hereinafter referred to as AP1)
Anonymous Pooner 2 (hereinafter referred to as AP2)
Approval of Minutes
The minutes of the previous meeting were motioned by AP2 to be accepted. Attempts to second the motion failed as eddie was unable to produce a copy of same. Motion denied amidst incoherent mumblings by eddie about a dog eating his paperwork. Minutes declared as "lost" by AP1, seconded by HB40.
Open Issues
None. See above.
New Business
1. Actual Purpose and Meaning of MERL - It was agreed by all attending that none of us have even the slightest idea of what MERL stands for. It was finally "light went off" type pointed out by eddie that MERL stands for Men's Equal Right's Liberation as coined by HB40 way back when. General agreement ensued and the acronym stands as noted. Discussion of member pins/badges ensued but failed to find a member willing to invest the time required. Discussion tabled.
2. What do you do for a living? - After the initial shock of such an impertinent question, the following was revealed. HB40 - mercenary. AP1 - resident Doctor of Oncology at Boston Medical College. AP2 - City of Edmonton bylaw enforcement officer. eddie - trust fund baby.
3. Meeting frequency, location, and rotation of chair & minutes - After strenuous discussion, it was agreed that the meetings would be held every Tuesday at the usual secret clubhouse location. The chair falls to whoever is foolish enough to pick up the holy gavel and bang it down once to convene. Minutes fall to whomever has a pen/pencil/pad. Discussion of passwords and secret handshakes ensued but failed to come to any sort of agreement. To be blunt, the chairman seemed distracted...and it wasn't the waitress...
4. New members - it was unanimously agreed....why the fuck not? So, come one come all. eddie pointed out, but...this is a men's club....no girls....unanimously overruled. AP1 also motioned at this time to adopt a secret MERL signal that will convey to eddie (or others) when it is time to shut the hell up. The STFUER (shut the fuck up eye roll) was adopted by a majority, eddie being the only dissenting voice. A triple STFUER did the job. Motion passed.
5. Best Fuck Ever? - a few names come out but, ultimately, it is confusing. Members varied from one moment to the next. It is agreed and noted that the lovely ladies are all unique and we are lucky to have the opportunity to meet/know them. eddie offers up..."but, I never really fuck them...at the best of times, I get fucked by them"....he is greeted with another triple STFUER.
6. Agenda for Next Meeting - none established. It is generally agreed that we are a bit of an aimless lot and, besides, eddie's dog would only eat the paper anyway. Carried unanimously.
7. Guest Speaker - Zip.
8. Adjournment - It was moved by AP1, seconded by AP2 to adjourn. HB rushed out the door to his next encounter. eddie continued to draw flowers on the page and making like he was actually recording this shit.
In summary, it was a delightfully interesting time. Thank you to all attendees.
kindest,
eddie.
