Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Just got back from watching P-C kick ass at his Spelling Bee for Cheaters. He made it to the final two, just past Adam Savage of Mythbusters!

He better with all the money he raised!

A teacher who correctly spelled Lysergic acid diethylamide.

The whole thing was hilarious. Tracy Chapman's first word was cow. Lemony Snicket did pretty well, much to Michael Chabon's dismay.

Cool! Daniel Handler lives in my neighborhood, so go Cole Valley/The Haight.

Though P-Cow apparently kicked Chabon's ass for East Bay reign-age.

Oh, he didn't miss it. I think he missed ouabain (wä-bā'ĭn) right before that.

Ouch. Taken out by the luck of the draw. Unluck, I guess. Uh...misfortune.
