    Last time my girlfriend and I were at mikerphone, we saw someone playing hungry hippos and thought that would be fun. Needless to say after a few beers, we Amazon primed that and about $50 more worth of childhood board games that night.

    Lesson: Don't drink and prime

    I had that happen at Christmas time. Drinking with my friends and we were talking about slim jims. Fast forward 2 days and I had 280 slim jims.

    That just makes the glasses all that much sweeter. Let FFF come knocking at my door, a good tongue thrashing will get followed by a swift kick in the ass.

    I've been sitting at a bar with my uncle. And next thing I know we ordered a pellet pistol. Thank you Amazon prime.

    Never teach your English Mastiff to run and jump up to give you a hug. I will now be attending DLD (not trademarked) with a broken rib.

    Flash forward to the 13th and how your allocation gets completely smashed....

    I'm sending the wife in first. I'll stay back with the allotment.

    Is that enough to get you a pass to the front of the line? I'm guessing no, but give the dog another try.

    A bottle of Tweak, a firm handshake, and wait for it... everyone's attention for about 30 seconds followed by likely the remainder of the day with your head in the trash can (not just from Tweak but the other 100 high ABV you will drink throughout the day)

    Oh wait, there's more... you will likely be photographed and memorialized in Dark Lord history forever as the 2017 trash can guy. And that's not all, you may have the opportunity to hitchhike to your hotel when you get lost from your friends (this seems to happen every year to someone in my crew). I know that sounds like it couldn't get much better, but you may be lucky enough to be the second most notable character to wander off, fall asleep on some pallets behind the brewery and not be found till the next day. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, the next day you will likely be praying to the porcelain gods and all for the low low price of a 12 oz Tweak chug. But you must post now because this offer only lasts for the next 36 hours. Again, please act now.

    That's a big girl too. Mine at last weigh in was 180 and she's grown since then. Still has 6-12 months of growing ahead of her. Her mom was almost 195 and her dad was 215.

    So, no announcement "this week" then...? Typical.

    I am pretty sure we will get an update on the 15th or 16th telling us how the allotment lines were supposed to work, after we all rush the tent and take it on the 13th.

    Hopeful timeline: drink beer with friends, drink beer with friends and cool new people that enjoy good beer, continue to drink with all my my friends (I gain friends as day proceeds), final stage, everyone is drunk friends and we all share massive amounts of beer

    My DLD progression.
