    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Feeling particularly chipper in light of the recent Ekelund re-signing, I decided to celebrate by taking a stroll to the Food Court at Valley Fair Mall.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Once at the mall, pushing my way past the lines of shoppers desparate to trade in their recently-bought Raiders jerseys for Buccaneers jerseys, I finally arrived at my destination - the front counter at Hot Dog on a Stick.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Upon my arrival, the manager (the girl in the picture wearing the funny hat) immediately called me to the back where, she promised, she would show me "something exciting".

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Without needing her to say another word, I quickly followed her to the backroom, where she instantly pulled out a manila folder from her desk. Disappointed, I opened the folder; my disappointment was somewhat alleviated when out poured twelve of the latest Earthquakes practice photos.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Delivered to her earlier in the day by someone she could only remember as the Brewmonarch ("...or some name like that"), the manager pleaded for me to only show the pictures to those that "are worthy". With fingers firmly crossed behind my back, I promised to carry out her plea, took the folder full of pictures and headed home, and now show you the pictures (thank you, firmly-crossed fingers! ;) )...

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Apparently, those were the only pictures that Brewmonarch (whoever that could be :confused: ) had left with the manager (the girl in the picture with the funny hat) at Hot Dog on a Stick.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp GO EARTHQUAKES!!! :(

    Was Alvarez at practice today? If so, any observations?

    Let me tell you it's going to be weird seeing the new faces. :(

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp When I asked her that very same question (I wasn't at the practice myself), the manager at Hot Dog on a Stick (the girl in the picture with the funny hat) claimed that she didn't know since she was slaving away all day at Hot Dog on a Stick. She also informed me that the mysterious Brewmonarch (or whatever his name is) didn't tell her either.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp To find your answer, seek out and ask this Brewmonarch.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp GO EARTHQUAKES!!! :(

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Not at the moment, although I'll try to obtain some more.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp I may need to go undercover either as a mall-rat or as a Hot Dog on a Stick employee to get them, though. ;)

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp GO EARTHQUAKES!!! :(

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Yesterday, I once again traveled to Valley Fair Mall, this time to pick up my copies of Unreal 2: The Awakening and the expansion pack Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome (both for my PC). Afterwards, I decided to pay another visit to my favorite spot at the Food Court - Hot Dog on a Stick.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Upon my arrival, the cashier-clerk there (she was the one in the picture wearing the funny hat) seemed to be very sad. I asked her why she was so sad, to which she replied that the person she and her co-workers could only remember as the Brewmonarch once again stopped over there earlier that day; when they asked him to supply them with some brew, he instead only left a manila envelope with them filled with more Earthquakes practice photos from that day.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp I tried to cheer her up by showing her a screenshot from Unreal 2 - I couldn't understand why the screenshot failed to cheer her up, especially since it had cheered me up when I first saw it. :confused:

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp In any case, she mentioned that the Brewmonarch wanted me to show all of Quakedom the photos (including some of potential Earthquake Jonny Walker). She then handed me the folder full of photos and earged me to post the photos as soon as I got home.

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp So instead I took the folder and went home, played Unreal 2 and Battlefield 1942 for several hours, and then posted the photos (or at least links to them).

    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp Enjoy...


    &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp GO EARTHQUAKES!!!
