A tribe called guests. The elders gather as Malcolm Giron discovers that Shishke Bob is not a blues player from the middle east, it's a dinner choice. Poor kid, I think someone sold him concert tickets. Jennifer tries to console him with a salad.

The home version of our game. We went to a chateau and filled up the ol' vin cube. It's like a party ball, but they fill it with wine. Here I am at Peter Giron's house transferring the wine into bottles. Malcolm is sitting behind me corking the bottles.
