Off to the strike

[prog]

Congratulations to the Evil Midnight Bombers for running the funnest Mystery Hunt I've attended, to Beginners Luck for solving it first, and to my team of Immoral, Illegal & Fattening for being super awesome. There is no finer group of folks I'd rather be sequestered into a classroom for three days with.

This was my sixth "birthday party" spent at the Hunt, and while I certainly had my share of frustration, I feel I did more solving this year than ever before, as did our team as a whole. This was the first year I think we were really-n-truly trying to win, and everyone put their all into it. It was fun to watch my hardcore-solver friends continue to work even after I'd run out of energy.

In other news: Yes, 100011. And so I officially say adieu to the youth demographic. Very well, says I: this year is gonna gonna be as awesome for me as my age is auspicious (in decimal, anyway).

There will be related pictures up later. But the T is gonna start up soon and I'm pledged to show up at IIF's HQ and help clean up, so they'll have to wait.

Only 0x23! You've got ten years before you can claim to be no longer young, no matter what the advertisers say. Happy birthday!

Take back the number

35 isn't so bad. In fact, every birthday is minor miracle. When you think about it, it took a minor statistic anomaly for us to be here at all.

we kicked butt, didn't we? At having fun, solving tons of puzzles, and not getting frustrated too much.

Ah yes, 50 was a pretty good year for me. Hope it's good for you too.
