OK/TX/AR LAN

[ COPIED TO MYSPACE.COM BLOG ]

Had a great time in Tulsa (I swear, I never thought that sentence would come from me!). The highlight, as with all LANs that I attend, had nothing to do with an XBox. Yup, a fast frenetic game of "straws". It was an original title, thank you, based on the popular game of "spoons" with some tiny tweaks: since we didn't have spoons, we used coffee stir straws and because that's too much to say when you've been drinking, we shortened it to just "straws".

Oh, yeah, "we": the entire OMM clan at the LAN which consisted of me, Brother Dustin and XS Crazy Ice. But then, we added wrstPLAYERevr to the group and that's when we threw in another rule: if you didn't get a straw, you took a drink. I'm pretty sure that the rest of the table doesn't remember clearly what happened from there as they lost frequently....

wrstPLAYERevr was a lot of fun and I learned that he does NOT appear to be drunk - he holds his liquor well. I didn't believe that he was drunk, in fact, until he started puking... I don't have any pictures of that.

Anyway, I forgot to get into the photo thing this past weekend, so all I have are a couple shots from my phone, but you can check it out for yourself at:
