The Night of the Loud Shirts
We celebrated Marc's 50th Birthday with a really fun crowd of friends last night. If you take a look at the photos you'll understand the title of this post. The party must have been good, we ran out of beer and had to send out a scout for more (Thanks Cooper!). If the comments of the guests are any indication, the venue was a great choice and the catering went down a treat. If any of you are reading this, please oh please leave a comment, would dearly love to hear your thoughts, asides and anecdotes....

well done marcia and marc
great pics too, your efficiency in getting them on the blog is envied.
Just thought I would say thanks to you and Marcia for putting on a great evening Saturday night. I had a great time.
Congratulations Marc
I tried calling Marc's mobile on Saturday but it just rang, I guess he was busy. I'm glad to hear you all had a great time. I really wish I could have been there. The mug was made by a local glass blower in Idaho. To go along with the beer mug I found a few extra thoughts on the wonders of enjoying a good drink that I thought you might enjoy.
"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink I feel shame.
Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes and dreams If I didn't drink this wine, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this wine and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."

And saving the best for last, as explained by Cliff Clavin,of Cheers. One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm.
Here's how it went:
"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first, this natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.
In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first.
In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."
