Even I, who live with part of Team Quicksand, do not know what the lads are up to this year. I suspect they will find their way to bocce again this year, do their best to win, and it will be entertaining.

In 2009, Team Quicksand dedicated itself to spreading the gospel of the good roll. Sacrificing themselves, figuratively, to bettering their fellow man through the good word. Quicksand roamed Lund Manor on their mission seeking converts, and free cocktails, for the cause. While the team's efforts at bocce were less than desired Elders Mai Tai and Midnite sought success in teaching others the ways of Quicksand. It went well, until it didn't.

The powers that be, be them or they, sought to quell the popular wave they saw in Quicksand. Said powers said, "Stop those...those infidels, those usurpers." Soon, Team Quicksand was ostracized, and worse:

The righteous lads were not seen again, little is known of their activities following Tikibocce. Did they go underground, seeking refuge in some backwater bocce league? Have they abandoned the good word? Rumors concerning their whereabouts continue to spread with Quicksand sightings reported in locales as disparate as Tierra del Fuego, Port Moresby, and Alameda. Whatever their fate, the boys remain on the lam, outlaw spiritual guides for the downtrodden, the disenfranchised, the thirsty.

One thing is certain, twelve dollars seems about right.
