You're right Graham, I accidentally posted under "off topic" but it looks like Hank was good enough to move it.

Bear, I'm looking forward to hoisting a few with you too. (We're talking about beers here, not hoisting dead raccoons over the railing at the waterfront, right?) It's a good thing the BIG-HAMISH-WILL-BE-HERE-KILT-NIGHT-TO-END-ALL-KILT-NIGHTS is a year away, I think I need to desensitize myself to the excitement bit by bit.

Sorry we'll miss you this time around too, Colin. Andrew, I threw in the part about Vancouver kilt night with intention that it would be hijacked, and therefore, a more interesting thread. Glad to hear you'll be there, by the way.
