ROBOT PRESENTS A GRINDHOUSE MINUTES DOUBLE FEATURE EVENT:
MINUTES 2/6/08: DEATHPROOF
MINUTES 2/13/08: THAT OTHER ONE. YOU KNOW, THE ONE WITH THE ZOMBIES, I
THINK, AND THERE’S THAT WOMAN WITH THE MACHINE GUN FOR A LEG. YOU KNOW WHO
I’M TALKING ABOUT. SHE USED TO BE ON, WHAT WAS IT, CHARMED? I THINK SHE
REPLACED SHANNON DOHERTY. YOU KNOW WHO I’M TALKING ABOUT, RIGHT? YEAH.

ROBOT MINUTES FOR 2/6/08: DEATHPROOF
Mad River Room 8 PM

Leticia wanted to let it be written in the minutes and known throughout
ROBOT that she was actually on time for the start of this meeting. This is
a day that will be long remembered throughout ROBOT lore, though not quite
as funny as the one where Leticia was “thinking about ROBOT”.

Side Poll! Two mythical creatures who are actually totally real (no
seriously, my cousin, he knows this guy who like, totally SAW Nessie in
the river, man) square off: El Chupacabra vs. The Loch Ness Monster.
Supporters of El Chupacabra wanted to let everyone know that it quite
literally sucks (sorry to spoil the ending, but this may be why it lost).
Another (the first?) plus was that El Chupacabra successfully invaded
Canada, making it more successful than the entire U.S. in that regard.*
Nessie supporters gave their strongest praise for the fabled Loch Ness
Monster: it was apparently eaten by a whale (spoiler warning: Nessie lost
too. Surprised?) The Loch Ness Monster is, however, very non-photogenic,
and El Chupacabra is apparently easily confused with dead dogs. Both
creatures frighten Leticia. The final tally:
El Chupacabra: 13
Loch Ness: 16
Wookiee: 26
The Wookiee carried the day again, presumably because Wookiees don’t suck
and I don’t think one’s ever been eaten by a whale before.
Fun Wookiee Fact: This is the first ROBOT meeting ever where the word
“Wookiee” was correctly spelled (two e’s at the end) in the side poll.
Past generations of ROBOT hang their heads in shame at this greivous
error.
Fun Minutes Fact: I managed to slip a second Star Wars reference into the
previous paragraph, and that makes me happy.
*Fun History Fact: U.S. Unsuccessfully Invades Canada:

I didn’t catch what time we called the meeting to order, but really, do
the meetings ever really manage to get to order?

ROBOT ROLL Call: Awww yeah.

Approval of Agenda: Really?

Approval of Minutes: ROBOT approved of the previous week’s meeting. Future
generations will look back at this moment as a huge mistake.

Sound System Requests: NO! THERE WE NO SOUND SYSTEM REQUESTS THIS MEETING!
WINK.
