DETENTION Saturday
ETA: Mun jst got horrible news and will be AFK for a bit. I'm sure you can tell this is a pretty loose detention. Just don't blow anything up. I'll be back later to release you. I'm back. Play this funny for me, ok? I need cheered up.
Visitors are welcome during LUNCH only.
The Danger Room has been programmed to resemble the press briefing room at the White House. On each chair is the student's name on an etched brass plaque. Make sure you only sit in the chair with your name on it.
At the ends of each rows are thick folders rubber banded to a large stack of books. Behind the lectern is a white pull down screen covering the seal of the United States of America.
CJ stands at the lectern, wearing her glasses. She looks up as the students enter the room and checks their name off the list.
Honor System, Gang. If YOU know you have detention, please serve it. Not all the teachers submitted information, or else there were late additions. Thanks.

Ok. It's Saturday. It's detention. I'm supposed to mention about your wicked, wicked ways...yeah, not going to do that. Work harder. Quit screwing around. In some misguided attempt to keep you all sane and alive I signed up for this gig, so let's make the best of a bad situation, and make CJ happy, ok? [She smiles]
All right gang, this is going to be as painless or as painful as you choose for it to be. I want you in groups of not more than four. You each have a different stack of information. These are reports that are sent to the government so we can decide what to give money to. We had an intern, Winnie, and she's read them all and briefed me on them.
Your detention, since most of you are here for not doing your homework, is to consolidate the information, come up with a coherant presentation, and then get up here and present your findings to the rest of us. If you do it well, single moms and garbagemen get to keep on making a living. If not, you damage the environment, poison the masses, and generally create hell on Earth and destroy our noble Democracy as we know it.
But first, we're going to watch a couple films to help orient you to politics as I know and love them.
[Walks to the back, flips off the lights, and starts an old fashioned reel projector. Footage of the Kennedy-Nixon debates flashes on the screen at the front of the room and the lights dim so they can watch.]
I will post sub threads for different detention activities through the day.

Re: Group 5
*looks at the paper and smiles widely*
Redesignating the subsidies somehow. Yeah. Stuff so the small farmers are less . . . frakked.
Re: Group 5
*reaches under the tables and squeezes Anders' knee*
Re: Group 5
*settles for drawing cute little stick-figure Cally and Anders and sliding the paper across the table*
Re: Group 5
*points at her notes*
Okay, so, Ethanol and improvement for the small farms. Anything else we should cover?
Re: Group 5
*grabs hold of Cally's hand under the table and squeezes it*

Re: Group 5
Re: Group 5
ridiculously cutelunch*Okay, so... what were we working on, again?
Re: Group 5
A way to sneak under the table so I can snuggle you silly?I think we were on wholesale corn syrup marketing.
Re: Group 5
though the snuggling sounds like way more fun.*looks through the papers* Huh... I don't have the info on that, is it in the stuff you got?
Re: Group 5
Oh, ick, look . . . it doesn't act like sugar. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/07/12/AR2005071200751.html)
*flips through the rest of his stack of papers
and tries not to think about licking corn syrup off Cally*Re: Group 5
*scribbles notes
and tries not to think about Anders licking corn syrup off of her*Re: Group 5
*is completely not spazzing out about the fact that OMG he was thinking about licking corn syrup off Cally*I dunno . . . I mean, look how much stuff it's in. Sodas, snacks, food, everything. Reduce the amount, maybe, but removing it is kind of extreme.
*really, really, really wants to lick corn syrup off Cally*Re: Group 5
*totally not flustered due to thoughts about Anders and corn syrup licking*Good point?
Re: Group 5
*not in the least losing his concentration due to thoughts of Cally and corn syrup and licking and getting the frak out of detention to go do that*Re: Group 5
and tries to block the happy happy mental images of corn syrup licking*Re: Group 5
that doesn't involve licking corn syrup off you. How do we demonstrate, uh, the way that the subsidies are a waste of money that could be used betterkind of the way we could be using this time to make out like bandits instead of being here?Re: Group 5
Definitely. Corn syrup licking is definitely one thing we won't do in public.So, how about... say how subsidies don't accomplish much in the long run, and funneling funds into related research and programs gets more done in the long run?
