Heh, when I was finally conscious and coherent enough to check the applications e-mail yesterday, there were EIGHT new apps in it, and only one was a duplicate from the Con (he wanted us to have his e-mail address).
35 of us marching, and we did look shiny as hell. Thanks again to everyone who made the inagural march as special as it was.
NVG, thanks for the rum. I did indeed let it breathe, then let it sit in the warmth for a few hours, as was instructed, and I can attest that it had an interesting effect on little MsG, as she woke up the next morning not hung over but still a bit drunk. 
*sigh* I miss everyone like crazy, and it's only been a few days. Thank the gods for the internets, or I would truely be going insane right about now. Hopefully it won't be another year before I get to see some of you again.

I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!

I'm so happy that people are asking and talking about the 76th. Spreading the signal one wave at a time right?
As to other things.
I heard about the rum. Magda and I even went looking for the rum after it escaped her room on Sunday night. We had to interrogate an awful lot of Spartans, but to no avail. None of them would admit taking it.
We finally tracked it down on Monday night at Tristan's bar.
I don't remember sampling it though. Or was that the second drink? The first being the vanilla vodka? Now that I think about it, it might have been the second drink. I'm a little fuzzy on the details.
Shiny stuff. I'd gladly interrogate spartans for it again.

You mean you didn't search the Spartans??

Well, they were kind of confused by the interrogation, and I think a search might have been a bit terrifying... I didn't want them to run away before I was finished.
Though we did find some vodka in the process...
We thought it might be the rum in disguise, but alas, after further investigation it turned out not to be...

The Sailor has been good to me more often than not. I don't think I've been hung over from the Sailor Jerry mixes (even through a whole 750Ml bottle), but I have woke up still drunk a few times on it.
Glad everyone had such a good time. I keep finding more pictures throughout the internet. It does a heart good to see friends featured in pics by total strangers.
Can't wait to make a trip out for the 76th. Sems this gorram scenario is next Friday and I've done little to prep. I should have acquired the costume pieces anyway as I found out there is to be a costume contest Friday night before the battle ensues.

ah I see you two are calling it interrogation now..new euphemism then??? LOL Not everyone can say they were presented a screwdriver (the drink not the tool) by a pack of barely clad, very nice looking Spartans....
NV- much joy was had by all:) Only wish you could have been there too.

Speaking of those hard-copy applications (nine of them, by the way!), one thing I neglected to do was leave a space for contact information....so if anyone here knows of anyone that filled one out, please get in touch with someone from the 76th to pass that info on. It was one of those "Aw, hell" moments when I started reading through them and realized I would not be able to contact them....

That's not me. I didn't see you taking that picture and didn't purposely turn away. Nope. Not me at all. XD
