The agents are complaining (again) about our name. They say that Hugotontheonbiquiffinarians takes up too much space on the secret message forms. I'm thinking that maybe we should just become the Bifs. And then there's the secret handshake; forty-five seconds is too long for the 21st century. Just think of all the buses that have been missed because the driver would not wait until the handshake was completed. Perhaps we should just try a wave and a wink. The special general meeting coming up soon. Can we put this on the agenda?

sure-But I like the long name and who in their right mind would want to teach the squirrels how to wave and wink?

Quiffs would be more elegant.

If you can't take the time for a simple, 45-second handshake, I'm not sure if you belong here.

Would you mind speaking to the bus driver?

>4 suitable1: Membership demands sacrifices, big and small. For example, tolerating the squirrels.

They are always whining about something.

It is my understanding that, according to the bylaws, additions to the secret agenda are forbidden.

As is knowledge of the secret agenda.

As is any acknowledgement of the existance of bylaws...

Further shortening of the name would be ill advised, as Hugotontheonbiquiffinarians is, as you are all aware, already a shortened abbreviation of the long form.
