23 January 2013: post-malaria cribbage bash

As usual, a hearty thanks to Mouffie for making the Clubhouse available.

Thanks to the 1.25 liters of Coca-Cola™ (they didn't have Dr. Pepper™) he consumed immediately before being chauffeured to the Clubhouse, the Gabridoodle was completely out-of-control.  The white chocolate popcorn, while tasty, didn't help matters.  Eventually, the Gabridoodle managed to break la Marmotte ! It got so bad that she wound up crawling on the floor.  We therefore hope that the Black Rose, a stern disciplinarian, will attend our next event.

The eight attendees split up into two groups of four.  While la Marmotte was being broken at one table, the other table was dealing with mustaches and mathematical difficulties.  Later, the entire group gathered for a goofy eight-player game overseen by Crazy Joe.  The Cribbage Gods showed no favor to the steel pegs.  The use of LL Bean playing cards did, at least, add an outdoorsy touch.
