Last Gnome Standing

[kevin_standlee]

...is the name of the party that Lisa and I decided to hold tonight. I had to run up to my office for a while this afternoon and took the opportunity to toss together a flyer.

So far, our goal of getting rid of all of the leftover food and drink is failing, for we're taking on food as people bring us their surplus!

We'll take a break about 9:30 to go out the front balcony of the hotel to watch the fireworks, then head back and hang out for a while this evening.

Lee's sorry he's missing it!

Did you get the goodies from Room 3099? Yeah, I left you an extra box of Canned Coke, in addition to all the sodas you gave me for my party.
My party went great. Hope yours does too.

Yeah, we got all of those leftovers. We've managed to unload most of them, too. At the end, we started telling people that the door prize for being the Last Gnome Standing was their pick of the food and beverages. ("Please, take a two-liter bottle of soda! Yes, take that bag of pretzels! Oh, a case of Coke is yours!") At 11:30, we took down the last of the signs and closed the doors. We're left with only half a dozen partial bottles of various fizzy drinks. I'll probably take the two Diet Cokes home with me. Lisa might take some with her. The rest we leave behind.

Why didn't we take it to the Con Suite? Because they had their own surplus supplies issues!

That is the danger of being the last party standing.

It's happened to us in the past.
