Vincent House Minutes 2/8

  • Special announcement from Dance Marathon! April 25th you can dance for 12 hours and raise money for the Children's Place (a charity for families affected by HIV/AIDS). There are prizes! dm.uchicago.edu or at Reynolds Weds. from 10am-3pm. $15 registration fee, $120 to raise.
  • Laura: way to go with auction! Great auctioneering and food and buying. But don't rest on your proverbial laurels because this Saturday is BJ IRON CHEF. With a $30 budget, we will prepare a 3-5 course meal on a theme picked by Josh. If you're interested (and you totally should be), email Laura. Last minute showing up is okay too...donuts to be provided at 9 on Saturday.
  • Final broomball game (unless we make playoffs) on Thursday, followed by the perenially popular fire and smores extravaganza in the lounge, followed by Movie Night (The Man Who Knew Too Little) at 10pm.
  • Tuesday is V-Day study break. Bring yourself and no date (or, okay, bring a date, but don't gloat) to enjoy treats.
  • Avi: Watchmen movie in 3 weeks at Navy Pier imax. It will be awesomer than anything, so look forward to a house trip, probably Friday.
  • Anees: Saturday is KSO Show, called something which he forgot, but it's about love. Watch Dorian and your RA fight people. Felipe, who went last year against his will, said it was actually great. Laura further remarked that it is the best cultural show she's ever seen ever. 10 bucks for all-"u"-can-eat Korean food and good times...buy tix from Anees or Dorian.
  • All ur mix CDs are belong to Anees for his trip to Madison. Give him music to get him pumped for his interview.
  • A $5/person subsidy was voted in for the Fogo de Chao trip.
  • We earned over 800 bucks at the service auction! Ehnice. But this is money that we all still owe, so pay up. Cash or check to Avi/Laura or Mickey. Emails will come when entries have been tabulated, and then you will have a week to pay. Kneecaps may be broken if you delay.
  • The Large Roosters had an epic encounter in basketball that lead to what appeared to be a crushing loss...until the other team pulled a technical foul and we made both our free throws and WON.
  • In a related story, our asses were handed to us in Broomball, despite Nadji scoring a goal. Soccer suffered a debatably unfair loss.
  • Survey on SCC to come.
  • Workshops go up next week: Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and a free preview on Wednesday. Come see Berenice and enjoy dead baby jokes.
  • Nadji is going to Steppenwolf on Wednesday to see "Art", a great play by a playwright of ambiguous nationality. Student tickets are 10 or 15 bucks.
  • We voted to subsidize registration fees up to $30 for Relay for Life.

QotW: "Better than mangoes, even" If you don't get the reference, you probably don't want to know.
Vinnie: Tyler, Ben, Eli, Felipe, Gay Threesome, and Mother Nature/Greenhouse gases
Weenie: Filipp Makoveev for being a bit of a creeper
