Official Censure

IT is hereby agreed, after deliberate and thoughtful consideration, that Casey Thompson be officially censured for engaging in conduct unbecoming of a Meatloaf Sandwich Club Member and that he be burdened with the attendant shame, guilt, and public scorn associated with said censure. Said censure is deemed necessary to protect not only the integrity of the club members but also the reputation of the Meatloaf Sandwich Club as a beacon of meatloaf excellence to our co-workers, our blog audience, and, indeed, the entire world. The Meatloaf Sandwich Club has ever prided itself on its exclusivity and rigidity to the highest standards of conduct. Thus, it is with a heavy heart that the following actions must be laid bare to the world:

1) That on January 16, 2008, Casey Thompson did knowingly and willingly purchase the luncheon buffet at The Cookery, a restaurant of known ill-repute.

2) That after perusing the offerings of said lunch buffet and recognizing that meatloaf was part of said offering, he knowingly and willingly purchased the luncheon buffet.

3) That on his initial plate of foodstuffs from said buffet, he knowingly and willingly placed said meatloaf.

4) That on his second plate of foodstuffs from said buffet, he knowingly and willingly placed said meatloaf, even after ingesting his first piece meatloaf and finding it to be of poor quality.

5) That Casey Thompson knowingly and willingly ate all of said meatloaf.

6) That Casey Thompson was well aware of the Meatloaf Sandwich Club’s strong and vitriolic stance against the existence of and ingesting of inferior/mass made/commercial meatloaf.

IT is the decided decision of the other four members of the Meatloaf Sandwich Club that said behavior by Casey Thompson constitutes a willful and despicable violation of the code of honor heretofore agreed upon by all members of the Meatloaf Sandwich Club and is an insult to the integrity of the club, its members, and his own personal sense of worth. It is therefore decreed that Casey Thompson be officially censured for engaging in conduct unbecoming of a Meatloaf Sandwich Club Member.

Agreed upon unanimously this 17th day of January, 2008, by Tony Breidenbach, Chance Simington, Roger Nelson, and Dan Gordon.
