)on's comment caused a genuine laugh out loud moment.

You must be gutted about the footage. Your descriptions do a great job though.

At least do a shadow puppets version....

Pink? As in Puffy/Andre 3000/Russell Simmons/Ashton Kuchar pink?

So 2004.

I guess this means we won't get to see Nick competing in the MARBC. However, since we try to copy everything the Cho does, Melanie insists she's going to enter this year and take up the "shop owner" challenge. She's even spouting off about payign for some Riddlage.

But I'm not letting her wear pink.

Anyway, congrats Nick and Daryn and Lem.

>Your wife may have satisfied several of the requirements to be nominated for sainthood.

THAT's how i'll tell her!

you raise a good point about the mechanical items. i'm still levering shots. haven't had a spare second to open up the tay-AH.

Ouch. My condolences on the camera problem. Many things mechanical seem to be acting up on you lately (car,tea,camera).

Your wife may have satisfied several of the requirements to be nominated for sainthood.

These morsels are better than any camera angle. The hopper incident, in my mind’s eye, is a blur of pink and brown. And slow pours… oh my god.

I’m sure everyone involved will be a part of telling a good story.

>I'm with )on. Let's see a reenactment.

you mean ... including the hopper incident?

i had some GREAT vantage points, nick. no official cameraman to get in the way this time. good closeups on some of your pulls (noticeably slower than both lena's and michelle's) and the cupping setup.

NOT THAT IT MATTERS.

Thank the Gods. My soul is intact.

All things happen for a reason. It was good to see you anyway.

I saw you sitting there with the blinking red light, wondering how the presentation would "show up" on video. Thanks for relieving me of that manifestation.

I'm with )on. Let's see a reenactment.

the lens cap was off — i know, because i was looking through the eyepiece at these great shots i had (seriously, i had a great position). besides, it didn’t record black. it recorded NOTHING.

maybe you could dress up the blog-fam and re-enact the finals… and video that?
