Meeting Minutes for the utterly absurd and pointless Committee of Utterly Pointless Projects.
Attendees: 1. Dr. Reginald P. Bottomsworth, 2. Professor B. W. Flibberflibber, 3. The Honorable Chairperson, and 4. A mysterious stranger.
Agenda Item 1: "The Invention of a Machine that Prints Post-It Notes with the Words 'I'm Bored' on Them"
Decision: We will definitely not spend any actual time or resources on this project. Instead, we will just talk about it for 2 hours.
Agenda Item 2: "The Creation of a Database of all Known Types of Fjords in Norway"
Decision: We will commission a team of highly paid experts to spend 3 years and 1 million dollars studying the fjords. And then we will promptly forget about it.
Agenda Item 3: "The Development of a New Type of Jell-O That's Also Edible"
Decision: We will spend 1 million dollars on focus groups, market research, and product design. But we will not actually make the jell-O. Because that would be too practical.
