Does anybody second the motion "Banzai has no life" ?

[Macstar]

she gets it! Ahh yes, I am the club piniata lol, i'll be seeing you at the friday strata meeting then eh...where everyone basically bashes me in real life rather than online , all led by the might macstar...who reminds me of that boss guy from mad max 2, you know the old baldy wearing the leather with his little pet boy on the leash only the boy is nish in this instance.

I called a truce a few days ago which you haven't replied to yet (however there's a new insult so I get to "defend myself" again!):

Yep - Formal meeting protocol/rules: To 'second' is a formal way of saying you support a 'motion' (an idea) in a meeting.

The 'motion' is 'moved' by the person that came up with the idea, a 'seconder' supports it, and it is voted on by everyone at the meeting, and if there is enough support, it is 'carried' - so the group agree to carry out the motion/idea.

It's weird eh?

For example - Committee on the colour of the environment:

Person A: "I move that the sky is green!" (Mover of motion)

Chair of meeting: "Who will second that motion?"

Person B: "I second that the sky is green!" (Seconder of motion = supporter of person A's idea)

Chair: "All in favour please say 'aye'."

Lots of people all at the same time: "Aye, aye, aYe"

Chair: "All opposed?"

People: (just a few in this example - but could be many) "Nae!"

Chair: "Any abstentions?" (People who choose not to agree or disagree abstain)

Chair: "Motion carried, the sky is now green!"

If the 'Ayes' and the 'naes' sound the same, a count may be taken, some motions may be voted on in a secret ballot (pieces of paper put in a box)

There are more strange words to do with meetings too. All to do with making sure ideas have the necessary support of enough people.

It's all part of the alien language of administration and government.

I hope that makes sense??

[BANZAI]

FREE BBQ Sign-up Autosalon

[Hanne]

[SIZE="4"]
[SIZE="4"]*Hanne must be at the sign-up stand during the event. If we can convince Rie also that would be great as well (because it might be more approachiable when there is one or two girl who rides a bike)

Then someone would probly say "but motorbiking used to be men's hobby, hard for girls to get into blah blah" and then we go back to the beggining of this thread for never ending discussion....

SMC= Single Motorcyclists' Club?


PS yeah, I was there at the last sign up, from 8am! Agree that another sign up would be good, not only to get ladies but also all those who we missed last time/ have started riding since

Person A: "I move that the sky is green!" (Mover of motion)

Chair of meeting: "Who will second that motion?"

..

No. That's a Point of Information "Mr Chair, I rise on a point of information, the sky is green". It's a statement of existing fact (albeit an incorrect one, ).

The motion would have ot be something like "I move that this committee issue instructions that the sky be painted green with immediate effect"

And the chair should have asked if anyone wished to speak to the motion before putting it. (Lots of motions, no-one does wish to speak to them, they are lonely and unhappy motions, some probably go off and commit sucide)
