Just checkin' in.

Hey kids. Not much new to report here. We did get our weekend on tonight. It all started with a group photo to send back to the friendly folks at The Wharf in PC. After that, Bob made us all come back up to the office "to play cards." While waiting around for the card game to start and everyone to check their email, we decided to get a couple of pizzas from the local Pizza Hut. Greg and I volunteered to fly so we rustled up a truck... the only one left, an old Ford 6 pack that starts with a knife instead of keys, and which recently had the back window broken out. We drove over and ordered our pizzas and decided to see if the PX had any cold near beer to go with it. By the time we got through the line there, our pizza was ready so we paid for it, hiked back over to the truck, popped a cold one and cruised back to the office. On the way back, we almost convinced ourselves we were heading home from work on a Friday afternoon in the summer.

Everyone was pleasantly surprised with the Clausthaler near beer(it actually tastes pretty good), but by the time we ate pizza and sat around, Bob and Greg announced they were heading home for the night - no cards having been played. However, by then John showed up so he and I gave Todd and Daryl a Euchre lesson. Now there's no one let but Todd and I. All week long our internet connection has been slow or hit and miss. Now it's working great and no one's waiting in line and Todd can't find anyone to instant message, and I don't have anything substantial to add to my blog.

Soooooo.... with that I'll call it an evening. Thanks for the comments and welcome to kavery. Nice to see some new screen names on there. Type at ya later.

I had no idea you had a pizza hut. SOunds like you had a really good evening. Did you win your Euchre game?

The expression "gave (them...) a lesson" indicates we taught them something about the game. By that I meant we won, thoroughly. Having said that, I'll add... since none of us care enough about these friendly games to cheat, we don't really care who wins once the game is over, so I'm not bragging, but rather reporting on how lucky our cards were that evening.

yeah...sure.


I don't care about the ol' lunch card games either. Exactly why you have to cheat once in a while...keeps life interesting.
