I will turn moderation duties over to the bar staff.  If they have to use the bouncer on you, that's your own risk.

And no one is allowed to look Jeff in the eye.  We all must bow are heads at a 45 degree angle when buying Jeff a drink.

No one ever accused Jeff of being a cheap date.

Have a terrific time, guys (and gals)!
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift...

I imagine Jeff to be something like Jacob from Lost.  Is that about right?

best time I ever had while watching a stomach punch loss

had a great time, everyone was great and it was fun talking to everyone - which provided a great distraction from the crappy game

from left to right: wdleehi, me, and Justin "Jughead" Poulin

(my bad posture doesn't support wdleehi's claims about how tall I am, but yeah, I'm 6'5", so I tend to tower over some people while standing up)

by the way, big tip of the cap to Josh Silva (in the white jersey) who helped organize this whole thing by securing the location and getting us hooked up with the NBA package at the bar

thanks man
