Well between stories of sexual encounters and drive in theatres I think we got some real great Admin done this episode. The Mirth Burner got a real go (0402 011 332), we are developing some Mirthandise (ideas welcome), and the Christmas Party is coming along (December 20), and we finally clearly detail our cafe/bar (BOB Bar in Google Maps, 240 Little Collins St, Melbourne). All of that is surely well worth the price of admission (free).
