Alameda, CA -- Wednesday, December 10, 2008, saw the first Quarterly Meeting of the Forbidden Island Kill Devil Club Immortals.

Upon the gathering of a quorum of Kill-Devil Immortals, Forbidden Island Proprietor, Martin Cate, presented the Immortals with a Challenge: "Finish off this unopened bottle of "Ron Barcelo Grand Anejo" and each shot is half price!" Having completed the challenge within an hour, the membership was informed that a not-so-anonymous friend of the club had offered to pay the tab for the bottle! This reporter wishes to again extend her gratitude to the "friend of the club" who consistently makes every visit to Forbidden Island a guaranteed evening of incomparable cocktails!

After the completion of the challenge, the remaining member of the club arrived for the first Official Club Photograph. A few of the members, this reporter included, then proceeded to embark upon their second run through the Kill-Devil Rum List!

The only remaining question: When an existing Immortal completes the list a second time, does the member get a second plaque on the rum shelf, or perhaps a brass bar to hang from the original plaque? It is expected that there will be plenty of time for Martiki to contemplate the question before actually needing to commemorate such an event.

A heartfelt "thank you" to Mr. Cate, the Kill Devil Club Immortals, and the staff of the Best Tiki Lounge in the USofA for a grand evening!
