I have sad news to report to my fellow bowlers… it turns out that the shirt says **SEA** monkey! Which makes sense, since there’s a picture of a surfing monkey on it. [sub][sup]Though considering that I got this shirt at Yellow Rat Bastard, I bet it’s no accident that it looks suspiciously different…[/sub][/sup] I can’t surf! I feel like a fraud! ---

You’ll _always_ be a sex monkey to us. ---

… since **Scralden** [sub]damn it, I was just told of the name change… why am I always the last to know these things??? :([/sub] (make that **hampster** ) made it here safely and we’re on our way to get something to eat. A great time definitely _was_ had by all, and those of you that missed it… there really are no words to describe it! Between **Pucette** ’s skillful use of scissor’s on **Vix** ’s butt, to my mad dash for my inhaler after watching **Pix** ’s masterful bowling, it was one of the best time’s I’ve ever had with a group of Dopers! I only wish I’d had the video camera readily available… As for next up, we were talking miniature golf. Anyone know of any that we can try to set it up with??
