The document provides an agenda for a session on making and hacking. It includes goals like learning things that can be used tomorrow and infusing years of nerdy wisdom. Criteria for the session include things being cheap, applicable anywhere, quick and easy to do, and having follow up support. The document outlines various making techniques and safety tips, such as using different grades of sandpaper, spraying paint from 10-12 inches away, and wearing proper protective attire. Participants are challenged to write down something to experiment with before Thanksgiving and exchange goals with a partner.
