The 2007 National "Annual Gathering" is in Edmonton!
January 28th, 2007
Could this be any sweeter? Yes, that’s right - Mensa Canada is hosting thier Annual Gathering (AG) in Edmonton this summer! I will be able to observe the mating rituals and social interactions of ubernerds in their natural habitat - a hotel conference room!

Here is a list of the nerdy presentations scheduled for the Mensa Canada Annual Gathering (honestly, I couldn’t make this shit up):
- Hybrid energy systems
- Generational IQ gains
- Chinese accupressure and how to self administer it
- The Alberta oilsands.
- How to get your email under control
- The publishing process of Velvet Avalanche: a collection of erotic poetry from start to finish
- Literacy & essential skills training in the workplace
- Offshore tax havens - pros, cons, and risks
- Corporate fraud (a la Enron) and the Sarbanes Exley Act of 2002
So I was sitting here daydreaming, and I thought, “Wouldn’t it be awesome if I was thrown out of the Mensa party?”. Here is my plan:
- Dress in an outlandish outfit, to split myself apart from the nerdy horde.
- Find other crazy Mensa outcasts, pour honey in their ears, and recruit them to team RAMROD (The Revolutionary Army of Mensans for Reform via Organized Dissent)
- Get drunk, stoned, and dry-hump the keynote speaker’s leg; my coup de grĂ¢ce.
- Record the entire escapade with multiple devices for my expose
So, any takers? Who wants to go on a savage journey into the worlds most secretive group of geniuses: Fear and Loathing at the Mensa Canada Annual Gathering?
More to come,

As your Lawyer, I advise you to take a quart of ear medicine - for personal use in your efforts to reach new heights, and to gain friends in the inner-ear infected circle of Mensats.

My Mom pointed out the it’s probably hard to confuse and infiltrate a group of geniuses…
…I’ll have to count on my ungodly-irresistible charisma…
