St. Patrick’s Day. http://www.fitssff.org/2012/03/open-game-day-edition-2012-now-feat-st-patricks-day/ http://www.fitssff.org/2012/03/open-game-day-edition-2012-now-feat-st-patricks-day/#comments Sat, 17 Mar 2012 12:27:57 +0000 Greg Lovell http://www.fitssff.org/?p=94 Star Date: 3023494023085 March 17 2012 234-912347π

First bit o’ information:
Open game day, 4th floor Crawford 1 till whenever the flip we feel like leaving.  Be there or be square. ◘

Also, it’s St. Patrick’s Day (or St. Paddy’s day for those who don’t like full names).  Enjoy your beer and exotic other beer.  Also, Red Dragon Inn will be played today, it must.  It’s required.

Other things of note going on:

1. Relay for Life next weekend. If you plan to help, Kareem was calling for assistance to show up on Sunday the 18th (tomorrow) at about 4 pm (?).  Also, submit time traveling ideas (cough Tardis cough) to him for our tent as well.

2. Also, HVZ has been moved till some point mid April.  Saddening I know.  All the 500234.3 times I’ve told you it was after Spring Break were exotic lies.  MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Gonna throw these images in a few of my posts - be sure to check alt text-

Anyways, I’ll be posting information up here from time to time, so anyone who’s interested, jump back now and again and hopefully, I have the non-laziness to keep it up to date for you guys.   Also, don’t forget to show up for the meeting tomorrow!

P.S.  we have 16,642 comments on our wordpress page.   I’ve fairly certain 16,600 of these are spam messages.   Oh yes, the 4th one is a message saying something like, “Buy X brand cigarettes” about 50 times.   Subliminal messaging doesn’t work when we can see it…. I think…
