Big meeting to address constitutional items.
Other highlights from the meeting:
Kelly tried to steal a fry from Ray. He hit her. She screamed. Violence is never
the answer!
“College hill names are exceptional public history like.”—Ray
Ray is violent.
Neal was late due to a Suessapallossa party; he made it up to the group by handing out Dr. Seuss cat in the hat coloring pages.
Andrea legitimately hates Ray, Ray loves Andrea. Should his wife be told?
