State Peace and Happiness Council Boycotts November

The Drama Foundry's Peace and Happiness Council has unanimously decided to boycott the month of November. It has been concluded that the month is inheritantly flawed and possibly evil.

The council decided that Numa Pompilius, one of the traditional kings of Rome, who originally decided to add 2 months to the Romulus (Roman) calendar was wrong. The council believes it is better to leave out the months of January and February of the calendar and create a nebulous happy time since it is cold as hell in Ohio and nothing really happens here this time of year anyway. Also, it was decided by the council that the name "November" derived from the Roman word Novem meaning nine (as in the ninth month) is inheritantly misleading since November is the eleventh month.

The possible evil inheritant in this month derives from the mass slaughter and consumption of turkeys during this time of year, the forced contact and interaction between the general public and annoying relatives from social rituals and holidays associated with this month, and the increase in televised sporting events that make scheduling meetings on Saturday afternoons impossible.

The Peace and Happiness Council asks you to just ignore this month and to focus on your writing or on practicing your acting skills.Do not dilly dally around waiting for us to schedule a meeting this month. Do not go outside, eat meals with relatives you hate, or watch T.V. If you would like to file a protest to the decision, you may do so. If you have material you would like to be read please submit to the yahoo.com email address: thedramafoundry

See you next month. (That is unless you have something ready to read right now.)
