  2. Now this is a well run organization! It's only fitting that it meet at the Viking.

  3. Could your committee come talk to our Board about running an effective meeting? Some of our meetings are ridiculously long. And the topics are never this exciting. Sure we talk about how to get millions of dollars for bike and pedestrian projects, but never anything as important as where to drink beer when the meeting is over.

  4. Tips for running effective committee meetings:

    Small committees function better than large committees. An ideal committee size is one member. (Unless that one member happens to be a lawyer, in which case zero members may be more productive.)

    It helps if committee members have an urgent need to pee.

    Coin flipping and dice rolling should be seen as rational decision-making and budget-setting tools.

    Beyond that, I got nothing.

  5. If you say Viking really fast it sounds like bike-hang.

  6. The best meeting advice? Never allow chairs, or any other sitting devices, into the meeting room. Least that's what someone once told me.
