Man Island Invitational Polo Tournament

ctrl-alt-del · October 16, 2009, 3:30am

So most of you know I will be leaving for LA in about a month, I wanted to set up a Polo tournament before I leave.

When: Sunday November 15th
Time: 1pm
Cost: I think we normally do 5 dollar buy ins right?

Similar set up to all the other polo tournaments. I had a blast at all of them, and this would be an amazing send-off if you guys and gals could take part in the festivities.

If someone could make spoke cards that would make me happy.

Nice, I’ll organise spoke cards once you’ve got the flyer up. Can you put a Baaannaaanna on it

Just google imaged “man island” the very first suggestion was disturbing but then I saw this…

WILD MAN ISLAND
by Will Hobbs (FIC HOB)

Fourteen-year-old Andy, stranded on Admiralty Island, Alaska, manages to survive, encounters unexpected animal and human inhabitants, and looks for traces of the earliest prehistoric immigrants to America.

It’s a sign.

the wonders of black font on dark backgrounds

Bender · October 19, 2009, 4:00pm

I thought you would have at least put a mallet head on that spear.

ctrl-alt-del · October 19, 2009, 6:35pm

there ain’t nothing I can do about the font… I’ve already flattened the image in photoshop.

i’m keen on some more polo tournamenting action but I’ve a question about this ‘invitational’ thing in the title.
Does it mean I have to be invited or that I have to be any good?
Or is there some subtle nuance of the word that I’m missing here?
