Launch Party History
Friday, April 24th, 2009In 1200 B.C., the Greeks packed around 30 men inside a wooden horse.
Last night, we packed 80 people (including at least one Greek) inside a wooden Moose.
And unlike the Greeks, we stayed neither still nor quiet. Thanks so much to everyone who came to my launch party at the Bull Moose Saloon. That, my friends, was frickin’ crazy. As evidence, I offer the following, snapped by Aris, the aforementioned Greek:
Yes, that is a moose snout behind me.
In the raffle, Gary won the mini-motorized schoolbus, Lane won the handcuffs (what have I wrought?!), Tricia won the rubber-band gun, and Elizabeth won the profanity-laced ARC. Allary won the barrel of jelly beans, with a guess of 312 (actual number of jelly beans: 311!). Allary and Tricia are both members of the powerhouse Books of Wonder crew, because their posse rolls deep. So, apparently, does mine, and I am just really happy and grateful for that. So, at the risk of repeating myself, thanks again, party people!
