For any interested in seeing me **** a brick, or hearing some embarassing (albeit mostly untrue) stories, I've got the videos up on youtube now.
a little background: So selection was first, and what they do there, is, fill a cup with a bunch of different platforms, and some other silly stuff sometimes (Like Kite, or SWO) and you draw a piece at random. If it's NOT what you're going to, you have to make a toast. If it IS, then the CO shakes your hand and you know. I was the very last if the 4 to select.

A few things to know: The smirnoff bottles at the beginning I had printed new labels with his name and face on them, to get back at him for punking me the day before. He also happens to be a HUGE Katy Perry fan, hence the tie.
