Cunningham is now over. He returns to his lair, stumbling, to weep and snivel as he remembers his evening at the controls of the\u00a0BOC\u2019s communication apparatus. Oh great and slimy W.T, oh king of diminutive shorebirds, you are but a substitute in this honorable office, but a decent one, and you are much appreciated. Hear that small rumble, deep in Lake Andrews? Walk along the cluster of reeds by the small monolith sculpture, stumble past the curve along the shore that picks up the trash when the wind blows west at the base of amphitheater. In the mudflat by a culvert, an assemblage of a thousand sand worms, turn their bodies inside out over and over again, a disemboweled applause for your service. The sand worms honoring you, the sand worms\u2014your only fans.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Announcements\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Secret Satan is next week&#8230; meeting attendees placed their names in a hat.

His music is described as inspired by \u201cski culture.\u201d \u201cWhat does this mean?\u201d coughed the humble secretary. Others nodded in agreement, somewhat thrown by the ambiguous reference to resort towns and petroleum based polymers.\u00a0Nonetheless, I am sure the show will be awesome\u2014I spent many a night this summer, worn and bruised from my air conditioned office job, entertained for hours by the synthesizers of this once bearded minor god of keyboards.
