One last batch of pictures before I start making my plans for San Jose...NN13!
As for those of you who are wondering how the NN11 Champion team "ONOZ" fared at the Chairman's Pub Quiz, let me assure you, we lost had a great time.
Losing Dave Weigel from our team was a blow as was losing Populista from last year's 2nd place team. However, despite our adversity, and being the good losers sports that we are, our heartiest congratulations to team Sea Org. (Oh-oh, look folks, they've got a giant target on their backs that we'll all be aiming for in San Jose!) As for the Chairman, Adam B, if you tried could you possibly come up with any more boring tough questions? No 3M, no Prince, no Fargo, no Burma! Sheesh, let me know if you need a layman's touch next year.
short video from pub quiz...Adam B introducing last year's 3rd, 2nd and 1st place winners ....had to get it on tape in case it never happens again! (just a reminder in case it slipped your mind or you can't hear the video, ONOZ won at NN11)
