Back from California - I met Inoldonil!
We just returned from a trip to Disneyland. One of the things we did was have dinner with Inoldonil and his family, who live in California. I've now met 3 of the Entmoot admins in real life (actually four if you count Tristan ).
A cool new attraction at Disney is "Who Wants to be a Millionaire." All the audience members get a chance to be in the hot seat depending on how fast you answer the questions - well I got in . I got up to 32,000 but then got out on a tennis question. The prize was 5 collectible pins, plus a Millionaire baseball cap.

Ben is forgetting to mention that they picked the #1 person out of 500. Ben just happened to be #1 But what he forgot to say was that I was #4. So close.

That sounds pretty cool. I wonder if they have that at Disney World in Florida. Maybe we check it out on the band trip this year.
