After rummaging around in my garage, I found that I was indeed passed the torch for the Dull Mens Club. So here we go. There will be a meeting of the DMC next Thursday, December 15th, at 7 p.m. at Scholz Garden. If weather will allow, it will be outside, otherwise, it will be inside. I called ahead, and they claimed that they would be open. I was considering some place more interesting, but then I realized that wouldn't be dull enough. Be there and be square.

Some more information about the DMC, and the meeting place: The Dull Mens Club is where dull men and (wo)men come together to rediscover dullness. To join the DMC, you must be dull, you must be a (hu)man, and you must show up at the meeting. That's all. Scholz Garden is at 1607 San Jacinto.

Wonderful idea, but how will we be able to spot each other at Scholtz's? I'm afraid we'll all be so dull, we won't even notice each other! --Jay-and-I'm-sure-you'll-want-to-see-all-3,789,431-slides-I-took-during- my-vacation-hey-where-did-everybody-go-Terk

Let's see. Um, takes one to know one? Everyone will be able to sense the overwhelming aura of dullness? I can make up a really dull banner. Maybe I should pull out the old 9-pin printer to make it.

Re: Dull Mens Club to meet at Schultz's on Thursday?
Might be a bad idea... the Lonestar Mensa group meets there then.
It may be difficult to determine which are the dull men, and which are the
dull mensans. Of course, you can always ask what the mass of the earth
is...
if you get a blank stare, you are at the Dull Mens Club.
Easier method: buy our table a pitcher of beer. We are far less dull
once intoxicated (dissecting beer cans, calculating the volume of
waitresses, and the like).
Even easier: any table with a brass owl (not so dull a story) is the
mensa table.
