So, Darth Plaugeis (or however you spell it) has suggested that the best way to get out of going to the meeting is to tell your wife that it's time to get ready for the meeting, and when her back is turned hit her over the head with a large object.
I'm sure there are better ways to get out of going. I'm looking for some real ideas here. None of the "Just say your not going." I like the whole getting your wife (or husband) drunk before the meeting so they won't want to go idea. Anyone have some other ideas in how they got out of going to the meeting?
