Croquet, Surprise, Block Partay

I would like to thank nobody for showing up to the croquet tournament resulting in my 3rd place prayer trophy (I deserved that handshake), Doreen for throwing Tom an incredible surprise birthday party at Bella Vita, and Block Party for being lame enough that serving beer was not as obnoxious as it usually is.

Off the Trail

I would like to say that I was impressed with Biagio, Scantron, and Brandon's fake orienteering skills in saving themselves the hike Justen, Tim, and I did to Weaver Lake although I am disappointed that we didn't do the original 9 mile hike due to too much snow cover.

Suntory Yamazaki 12

I would like to say that the Japanese are masters of copying things and then making them better and this includes the television you watch, the sake you drink, that kimono you wear, and now, even that "scotch" you drink.

Happy Hora

I would like to say that happy hour at the Rose & Crown is really incredible when you get three buckets of session and then eat the jerk chicken after Singer and Bunch's friend both "recommend" it at Mango Caribbean.
