Setup time 5 minutes

Equipment:

  • 1 Hammer

It involves flipping a hammer, earning the right to strike nails and keeping your nail as the last one standing!

I’ve got to hang out with a lot of friends I haven’t seen in a long time, get re-checked out on the Cessna, and work from the office.

Got to go to the game last night, which rocked. I met up with my Steve and tailgated. Cops were going a little crazy because they gave someones dad a ticket for drinking in public ($25 ticket), and then I heard that during half time they started coming and towing cars out of their yard… The landlord showed up, drunk people were yelling, cops were working things out, tow trucks were messing up cars trying to get them out…

Anyways, the rule was, put your drink in a cup and you will be fine.

Didn’t get a turkey leg this time, but they are delicious.

Steve!

Maroon and Orange on the face, need to go full face/chest next year cause this looks a lil… lame.

We win!
