{mosimage} In case nobody noticed, I have not been around here as much lately. First off, we have a number of things we are working on, including some new sites that will be revealed soon enough. But really, it's because I'm moving once again.
As some of you know, our site and company was started by a couple. That couple is now split but are of course hard at work as usual. Upon breakup it came time to find a place, which has landed me in Winter Park, Florida--just outside of downtown Orlando--a lovely place...to get drunk. During the span of a five year relationship, my beer tolerance dropped drastically. I was what people call a "lightweight". Well folks, the times, they are a changin'. In fact, an old college friend just called and invited me on their "Beer Olympics" team, which is an event downtown this Saturday involving a $20 entry fee, lots of drinking, a winning team and lots of good times. The legality seems shady but I don't plan on looking up the Florida laws anytime soon. I've only been 'back in the game' from a month but my progress has been steady. I vomited last Saturday after a solid 12 hours of drinking and felt really good about it afterward. In fact, I bragged to many of my friends about puking and even held back later at the risk of sounding overly proud about something others do consistently. My Beer Olympics team consists of two guys that drink way too much and play way too many drinking games. They'll be solid as a rock. The fourth member I don't know but apparently she played volleyball in college and brings a Brazilian flavor. Overall, I like our odds and we will practice formally on Thursday night. There are four games in all, including flip cup, quarters, beer pong (I think) and something else (can't remember). I once teamed up with a guy that's playing and reeled off 54 of 58 beer pong games---not to brag---but that's pretty sweet. The winning team gets $500. Really, this weekend is going to be tight, just another good time to forget about as you look to the next weekend. Expect a new flavor around DeathRattle in the coming months people. A shot in the arm. And as always, a good time. Cheers!
