2. Bring out the Mace!
No, I'm not talking about that stuff you spray. I'm talking about the Mace, that huge hulking piece of metal that takes both arms to life. The Sergeant at Arms was known to get compliance merely by presenting it before members in times past.

3. Well...looks as if they're having to vote to call for a quorum.
