Spring Showing #12

  Last showing of the Semester! Brain Reset!!  We have lots of goofy
  stuff for you, so be sure to make it.  It's a bunch of random stuff
  so I've just given you a general ordering.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Pizza

    This is the current plan for pizza, it might change on relatively
    short notice.

   We'll be using the same token-based pizza sales system we have
   been using for awhile: we'll sell tokens two episodes before
   intermission that you can exchange for slices during
   intermission. This week's pizza options are:

  $1.50     Plain cheese
  $2.00     Pepperoni
  $2.00     Hawaiian (ham + pineapple) (this week's feature flavor)

  Future weeks will feature:

  - Grilled Chicken
  - Hawaiian (ham + pineapple)
  - Hamburger
  - Sausage



-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pizza Ordering Procedure

   To bring you a more reliable pizza experience, we're going to be
   taking orders using a new procedure. Instead of taking a poll on
   the blackboard and then selling slices for cash, we'll sell
   tokens early in the evening which can be exchanged for slices
   during intermission. If there are extra slices, we'll sell tokens
   for them at intermission, but advance orders will get priority.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Library

   We still have the newish sampler from before.  These are fall series
   some of which we've played already. As always these are not intended
   to be playable in stand-alone DVD players: they're intended for
   computers, like our CD-Rs, but have a higher capacity. This week's
   sampler will contain:

   Kyou no 5 no 2              1
   Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka    1-2
   Toaru Majutsu no Index      1
   Macademi Wasshoi            1
   Shikabanehime Aka           1
   Chaos Head                  1
   Earl and Fairy              1
   Hyakko                      1
   Toradora                    1-2
   Casshern SINS               1
   Tales of the Abyss          1-2
   Ga-Rei-Zero                 1
   Yozakura Quartet            1
   Kemeko DX                   1
   Vampire Knight Guilty       1

   You can request one of these DVD+RWs in the normal way, but since
   we need to burn them in advance, supplies will be limited for
   requests made at the last minute. The discs are counted separately
   from the other limits on borrowing, but you should only ever have
   one out at once (we won't keep old ones circulating, since we want
   to reuse the discs).

   Look forward to a new sampler CD with winter shows soon.
