Weekly Cartel Update - Apr. 14

The full cartel membership was in attendance this week. The meeting had been moved up to Friday since some members had family commitments on the Saturday - something to do with Easter I believe. The meeting was filled with much emotion as D and LED almost got into a cat fight about which movie to see - as if they had a choice - they seem to forget that every week Dr. DandyCube chooses the restaurant and I choose the movie. This is the way it has always been - a tradition of sorts. Speaking of tradition - the tradition of presenting a Salt & Pepper set was continued with the presentation of two cute little dogs. Here we see the lovely Charlene holding the dogs. There were a few tense moments as well when Tanya mistakenly assumed that one of the cartel members had insulted her - something to do with her hips. Though an apology was quickly offered, Tanya is still considering whether or not to accept same.

OK OK - I can not let this lie continue any further. Although the female members had sworn us ( the truthful, upstanding, tradition upholding male members ) to secrecy, I can no longer abide by the deceit imposed upon us by the female members of the cartel. As one of the originating members I must put my foot down and demand the truth be told. In truth, we did not present a Salt & Pepper set to the staff at Wild Wing. The two cute little dogs are nothing more than ornamental decorations with absolutely no holes in their cute little fire helmet heads for the dispensing of salt & pepper. LED had told us that she would supply the salt & pepper set for this week but when she brought them out we all realized that they were not salt & pepper shakers. Of course Dr. DC and I wanted to tell the truth and apologize immediately to the staff for our error but the female members initiated a plan to dupe the poor unsuspecting staff. As you can see here, D is using a pen to draw in the 'holes' to make it appear as if the dogs are a salt & pepper set.

I must apologize on behalf of the entire cartel for this horrid deception. As the originators of the cartel, I and Dr. DC must make amends. We must right the wrong. We can not allow the 125 week tradition we have established to die simply because of a mistake compounded by outright deception. We will not allow the females to destroy what we have built! The legacy (see pictures below) must live!

I sense that two of the members are as pure as the driven snow, or should I say, salt. While TWO are as black as pepper on an over-done steak.

A truly innocent mistake was made and you sold me down the river HBB.
The wrong shall be righted...I beg forgiveness from the Cartel and from the Wild Wing staff...I beg for mercy.
