Shotgun Methods

J: I spent most of Friday—about 14 hours—at Rich's roving bachelor party. We played Parcheesi for 14 hours! Sorry; I'm following the bachelor code, here. I must lie to protect the groom. But here's a hint: we didn't play Parcheesi; highlights included shotguns and a big rat named Chuck E.

On Saturday night Gina and I had Grilled pizza at Marketon's place. I ate a grilled pizza v1.0 and
a grilled pizza v2.0, which was a vast improvement over the former. Then we watched a DVD of Mars Attacks! After that Gina and I went to the university theater to see the Satanic Mechanics' screening of The Princess Bride. There was a very good little dance number before the movie and the group acted out the entire movie with comical sidebars. The audience yelled out improvised one-liners. I chose the shotgun method— I yelled a lot of lines out and got a few good laughs.

On Sunday morning I charged up Gimmik (our old Toyota) and Number 12 (our old friend) came over to drive it away. After 230,000 miles it's going to a good mechanic.

Today at lunch I participated in Goddard's semi-annual fun run, not by running this time, but as course marshal #1. I directed the runners around the first turn and then toward the finish, and I redirected cars and grumbling drivers away from the race. The course marshal work was interesting but next time I'll run instead.
