SGT. REPORT: The quiet crew of Scott Potucek and Chuck Peterson deftly maneuvered into position for the removal of cash from the pockets of the membership. Uncharacteristic fines were assessed for S. Eric being early to the meeting and Duke being late. The Community Service Committee was fined for mimicking the Dead Butt Society. Doug, Ward and Curtis were fined for ridiculing the Sgt. Steve C. was fined for the lack of a sign-up sheet. Dean B. was fined for taking a call during the introductions. Jim K. was fined for being on time. Cosmosphere trivia was the new fundraiser including a question that was asked about a planet that should never be named in mixed company. The remaining trivia involved: when Rhode Island declared its independence from Britain, where was Lincoln buried and what does Cinco de Mayo celebrate. Yes, the entire membership paid.
