Purists of Organization Senate Complete Successful Filibuster of '14 Expansion Measure

-Marina del Rey, Ca.
-A group of four purists on Feast Fest's Organization Senate Wednesday again filibustered a 2014 expansion measure that, if passed, would have put two Feast Fests on Thanksgiving Day and which would have given chefs a 17-hour workday on Thanksgiving and which would have had the official score announcement coming at Midnight.

Although the proposal was projected to be defeated by a slim margin, the four OS members who conducted the filibuster didn't think it was safe enough to let a vote go through. And, because the OS broke session Wednesday and won't reconvene until after Feast Fest, the band of antiexpansion purists can now take a huge breather.

"We were elated when the gavel was struck today indicating adjournment," Lois Jenks, one of the filibustering members, said. "We now can approach this from a new angle when we reconvene and we can figure out how to halt such ludicrous expansion proposals before they even get to a vote."

The Organization Senate will not reconvene until Feb. 4.
