Our dear friend, Weird Uncle Tiki, has skipped town. He's moved to Napa Valley, and will no longer be joining us on the legendary Wednesday nights at Tiki-Ti.

Or... will he?

We know Weird Unc won't be able to stay away for long. I'd like to propose an informal pool to guess when Weird Unc will again appear at Tiki-Ti on a Wednesday night.

Since we need witnesses for this to work, if Weird Unc reappears on another night, it won't count. This pool will continue until he shows up on a Wednesday.

Also, since his cousins Iuka Grogg and Rodd Grogg look so damned much like him, it'll count if they show, too.

Slots will be segregated by hour (6,7,8,9,10,11,12), so each Wednesday has seven slots, and can be claimed by seven different people.

To join in the pool, do the following:**

• Scan the earlier posts to note what slots have already been taken
• State the month, date and year of the Wednesday you claim (can be any Wednesday in the future)
• State the hour slot you claim (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12)

**Select and type very carefully, no changing your claim! If your post has been edited, your slot is forfeited and someone else can then claim it. You may only stake one claim.

The clock at Tiki-Ti will be used as the reference.

To keep it simple, and allow as many people to participate as possible, participants won't put in money, and the winner will get nothing but bragging rights. (Though perhaps if you participate in the pool and lose, it would be mighty keen of you to be willing to buy the winner a drink the next time you see them.)

GAME ON!
