Hey, shout out to Rosie for an AWESOME kickoff!!! w00t!! Rosie ftw!!
Does anyone remember the reference that we all made en masse? I remember that moment - over half the table said something together (Monty Python? Young Frankenstein?) - but I don't remember what the ref was specifically.
Peace!

I know what you mean. Between being waaay at the furthest southern region of South Orange County, and not having my license, it's just not feasible for me, especially since most of the write-ins are in the evening.

Thanks TS!
I believe it may have been "there wolf!"

The reference was the song "I'm Henry the Eighth I am!"
:-) It was an awesome kickoff thank you everyone for coming.
And thank you especially to Rosie our beautifully dead hostess for planning and setting it up! :-)

Haha, there were a lot of collective references. Did you mean the one during the notecard game when half the table yelled 'nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!' and got points for it?
Thank you so much, Rosie! It was great. I had a ton of fun meeting you all.

"Nobody expects... the Spanish Inquisition!"
But I think the group rendition of Henry the Eighth-- and the look on the waiter's face when he interrupted us-- was probably my favorite moment.

"Just to let you know, we're closing up now, so, uh... enjoy the rest of your Henry the Eighth song..."
Yeah, it was classic.

Luneniege-Thank you for the praise. However, you know the answer to that. I fail at doing math in my head. Or on paper. Or with a calculator. :-p

I concur! I wish we'd gotten to get through all the cards in the game.
What was that game called again?
