I suggest you go home to West Chester this weekend and seriously contemplate the consequences of your conduct. Perhaps you could do something productive when you return Monday like instructing your drones to vote "aye" or "nay". If not, perhaps you could contemplate that razor blade sitting by the sink(remember, slitting lengthwise is more effective). Enjoy losing your leadership position a second time John.
