I Resemble ...ummmm RESENT that remark!  I specifically recall downing
my fair share of Atlantians with my fellow South Downers...and I didn't
have a trash cans size quiver, cause I didn't have a quiver... I just
had to haul my 22 arrows around in a bag...;D

He pretty much killed archery in Meridies for awhile as result... Thanks
alot you guys... :(

All I really remember about that event is that we got there *really*
late, the hall was cold and noisy, and Pascal and I ended up sleeping in

Boy we had a good time... :D
