Nothing Could Be Finer Than To Be In Quarantina ...

ooh, there's a sound in the hallway. Can only mean one of seven things. 1.) dinner is served 2.) Bagman Jack Herbert is back for more corruption money 3.) the government workers want to swap places with me 4.) more coffee 5.) I woke up from a nightmare and I'm really booked in here to play a concert at the convention center tomorrow night 6.) whatever six was, or 7.) the cleaning crew are making their first appearance.

God I cried and whooped and hollered "You bloody beauty!" Shortly thereafter Matt threw again and again this amazing series of throws - all over 65 meters with a best of 67.02.
