PS. I WON THE BALLOON RIDE!

WAIT!  >> If you're mildly confused - or severely confused - as to what's going on here and why I'm winning balloon rides... read the instruction manual on the homepage! Also navigate (at right) through the Challenge and Results of Alex Ott's Round. It'll be fun.

Alex Ott's declaration of my Round 4 victory was so darling that I framed it. See?

In case you don't have a magnifying glass:

"If the past few weeks changed your night life and drinking habits forever, then I'm happy. As a flavor crusader that is my mission statement for this planet. I am not only very proud of Michelle aka. Stumbling night owl (1st meeting on chelsea roof top), but also very impressed and happy that even MY below-the-radar guys in these spots were not only there, BUT she was even welcome and still alive at the end of the week. I somehow dont apologize for stretching this game, i am actually trying to keep this going at all costs, because when it comes to fun, there IS and Should not be a time limit....and when it comes to My life, the great thing about it is: it is mine, and YOU cant have it, but i do love sharing it with friends! You are one now! Your balloon ride is all yours!

Much love to you and your players and stay tuned for the crazy parts....

Truly yours"

Up up and awayyyyy I go. I'll keep you posted on the balloon ride and the "crazy parts"... balloon ride/crazy parts... what's the difference? Until then... stumbling night owl I shall be. :)
