Axis of kind of evil chappies

We had a full turnout Thursday throughout the match, which was rather nice. It turned out that Liz's birthday was later that night i.e. Friday. That got me thinking about us not having come up with a nickname for her yet.
Keeping with the car theme, current production Ford motor models are:

Fusion / Mustang / Focus / Five Hundred / Freestar / Edge / Escape / Explorer / Expedition

None of those seem to stick, though 500 tickles my fancy for some reason. If you wanna go back in time there was always the Edsel. Hmmmm, howzabout Ford Edsel? Definitely food for thought.

Anyway, the evening was pretty uneventful. Steve didn't play; he thought it was cuz he lost the previous week; I thought it was cuz it was his turn to sit. Matt didn't play cuz it was bonus day where he works & he'd been drinking since lunchtime. For a change.

Liz (500? Edsel?) lost to a young looking chappy who seemed very nice. Lap won against a very friendly D+ who didn't want to win even one rack. Swell came back from the abyss for the second week in a row & beat an Eastern European chap, who came across as being friendly enough. Skipper left an up to that point unbeaten chap with his first loss. This individual was also very kind, giving up 2 ball-in-hands on the 9 & leaving a couple of 9 ball combos (of which one was missed).

We're 8-4 & homing in on the playoffs with 3 matches left.
