WOW! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> I think I remember a Dog called ColdOne!?! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> ..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
How ya' doing Chris? We all missed you at Blade!

I missed it too Tom! Was nice to be able to be at the family get together though! I think that marks the first time my entire family has been together since my brother and I moved out!

That's definitely a good reason to miss Blade! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I tried to take up the slack for you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Did you beat Dan in a challenge coin contest?

YES!!! And I was not the only one; I think RainWalker and Jerry Foght did too! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Ouch! Poor Dan. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Well, he paid off outside of Jocks and Jills, and I have to tell you, I have not consumed that much beer in a LONG time!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Not since the year before? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

MUCH more than last year! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I had a GREAT time!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Ouch!

Did a Dog manage to take home the longest ash competition? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

No, that contest was won by the lovely Shelly, a newly inducted Hog! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> See, I TOLD you that you were missed! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> However, my ring-toss partner Joe Bean and I won the contest! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> And that was on top of my beer-helmet win, so I made out like a bandit!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Joe Bean? What about Jim Bean? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

I'll have to make a point of trying to defend my title next year then. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Hey, it was a high point of my year!
