So far as I can tell no crimes were committed against me. It's sorta tough to sit down right now but I'm thinking that's from the driving. Hell... ron didn't run me up a tree after presenting him with the Golden Chisel award.
Next sushifest:
The penthouse suite at the Wynn in Vegas in June (possibly)
Summer SushiFest in Flagstaff (July to celebrate the summer birthdays - this one is a for sure)
Fall SushiFest in JTree (just an idea)

Well you know Doug I've never used a chisel* to manufacture a route, just drills and a rat tail file (I have to be careful about saying "rat" around Junior). But what the hey! Now that you've given me one (and even painted it so distinctly for me) I might as well go and try it out. Huh?
*a drill is a chisel with a central point

Rad, you're not far off. Apparently there were too many distractions. Mind you, I have no objections to seperating the inebriated from their pecuniary resources, but the focus is best kept on the game rather than the repeated attempts to get our asses busted for noise. (You yourself observed that I had remained sober enough to drive home in the wee hours...)
Besides, Texas Hold-em no limit is the best game for a television viewer with a "god-cam".
You give me a seven handed game of limit Hi-lo with the last to bet or raise as the first to declare and I'm all over it.
Perhaps if we had moved the game to Mike's RV which pulled in at 11:30, but he didn't know where we were (must've been deaf), and nobody supervised logistics (note to future SF organizers).

crimpie drinking:
crimpie after drinking:
HappieGirl...cheer up!:
Okay, this is better:
And, ohmygod!, the hair.
An easy start with David Bloom, lurker extraordinaire:
it's getting better. Rodman:
and Mike, the vet:
a toast from paganmonkeyboy:
and Bloom, Lana and K-Man showing off the locks:
All right, I'll stop but perhaps the best part for me was just hanging around the fire, shooting the sh#t and getting to know all of the wonderful people who make the taco what it is:
Peace,
Mal

Piton Ron before the mess:
I'm not sure what's going on in Mighty Hiker's head here but, if I were Happirgirl, I'd be watching my six:
Got to love the party!
