Actually, I was late too. Larry was just later.

Actually, I've got to take most of the blame for who got kicked. Lar is
actually quite a decent fusball player. Beginner's luck can only get you so
far... Hey, at least I managed to score one backfield goal! (Not counting
all the goals I scored on myself, that is.)
Sometimes you kick, sometimes you get kicked.

Let's just say that I learned so much during the few games that we played that
one of our opponents started to accuse me of being a ringer. (He must have
been watching a different game than I was!) Let's just say that the only
match we won all night was the last one we played, so I must have eventually
learned something. Or maybe AFOLs just have more stamina than your average
fraternity boy.

Keep in touch, then. As you probably know, we're planning to have a NELUG
meeting the week after next to get ready for our participation in MindFest.
Maybe you can drag out your current job for a few extra days so you'll be in
town!
