Final Week

Les Doddington has won for the third straight year, taking it upon himself to personally exercise supply-side economics by taking all of our money each year and trickling it back down to us through indirect routes an economist could probably explain (eg: he bathes in so much fine California sparkling wine that winemakers buy grapes in greater volume, thus we get grapes for a few cents per pound cheaper at the grocery store... so thanks Les!).

Congratulations to Les and the other money-winners--Brad, Dad, and Dominic. And a big hearty congratulations to me for trying to be a good sport.

See you next year--if you know of folks who might like to join our little pool next year, drop Josh, Jim or Adam a line (or tag a name & address in the comment section of this blog).

Winners
Les Doddington 160
Jim Peck, Brad McGuire 159
Dominic 157
Best score by someone who gets nothing: George Doddington, 156.
Best comfort for me in the face of wins by my dad, brother in law, friend, and Les: Josh didn't get any money either.
