Hippos

Doyle was heading off with Paul on Wednesday, so suggested we have communal dinner tonight instead. Short notice, but lots of fun, nonetheless. Keith and Katie hosted, so all of us went to Assguard for dinner.

Before dinner started, we had the choice of ultimate (the open college CSTV broadcast) or Madagascar. Tragically Andy and I were unable to overcome the collective, and Madagascar won.

Someone not listening fully answered, "Who are?"

"Hippos."

"Hippos with AIDS, maybe."
