MMD By-laws

Charlie on Laws - Wed, July 16 2008

Submitted for approval on this 16th day of July, 2008. *ahem* clears throat

Number 1: ETB's motto of 'if you don't hike to pee, one of us you cannot be' is our official motto

Number 2: What happens at MMD, stays at MMD

Number 3: We must uphold our values and exhibit good moral character when in public. No sniffing unless permitted.

Number 4: We must refrain from catcalls or any behavior which demeans the ladies. They deserve our respect.

Number 5: Officers of the MMD are to be elected in a closed ballot voting session to be held annually. The following offices and cabinet positions are available. Please submit nominations!

Chairman of the Board
Treasurer for Happy Tails Ale
BCB Treats Treasurer
Poop Control (I nominate Kirby of course!)
Social Chair
Squirrel Patrol
Deck Monster Guard (the one at Kirby's house- danger danger!)
New Member Initiation

And finally, last but not least
Number 6: All sweaters, scarves, headgear, boots, costumes and other paraphernalia is to be brought to the Deck Monster Guard for sacrifice to the Deck Monster. Ceremony is top secret and ritual must be kept private at all costs, members only!

Respectfully submitted,
Charlie

Addendum: our initiation for new members is that the applicant must exhibit the ability to toot and belch simultaneously, as in the example brought forth by founding member Charlie (see previous post regarding milk consumption).

I humbly accept the nomination for new member chairman/barksperson and will gladly share duties with Star Hunter. Are we going to need someone to patrol for TURTLES?

Whoa, with regard to by law #4 regarding "catcalls", should the language be changed so it doesn't offend the feline population and get the CCLU (cat civil liberties union) on our backs? I know the DCLU (dog clu) may get called on us for discriminating again the BFF brood, so we gotta be careful with the official language, guys. How about "heckling" instead of "catcalls"?

I humbly accept nomination for social chair w/ Buddy. Buddy, as hounds we need to represent! I say we get started right away on a camping/rafting trip where we can effectively burn your sponge bob sweater and my hillbilly red bandana. This could also be a monthly MMD business trip. That way we can write off the expenses :)

Sorry Man--I didn't figure you needed a second. There's really no other choice for Poop Conisseur.

EXcellent idea! As Legal Counsel and Entertainment Coordinator, you will be the perfect resource for advising us on just how far we can go before breaking any laws. *wink*

It has become clear I may need to amend my hike to pee rule as due to illness, age and height, we seem to have some problems. I too have fallen over when I was little. Let me think on it--Charlie Corgi, help me out here. Anyone got any ideas?

Hey buddy!! I was wondering when you'd sign up! This MMD has become quite the 'in' thing, if I do say so myself! Guys are lined up around the block, just waiting to be accepted as members. Dude, you are so in. As COTB, I can get all corgis in regardless of hiking ability. BARK
