As many of you know, Sixthman is going to be doing several new cruises in 2010.  Many of us have stepped in to new roles, and I can safely say that all of us have taken on more responsibility in one way, shape, or form.  Am I complaining?  Definitely NOT.  Sixthman is full of great leadership and was born to take on new opportunity.

I’m guessing Andy was noticing the hard work around the office, so with the help of one of our newest members of the family, Calli, they organized a little company outing.  That’s right – I’m talking about a little game with some friendly competition.  A game where you drink some beer, eat some wings, and get your game face on.  No helmets, no pads.  Just you, you’re “Whirlybug,” and your “Scoop.”  Sounds intense, right?

At first we didn’t pick teams, we just ran out on the court and jumped in whatever Whirlybug wasn’t occupied at the moment.  Yellow or red, yellow or red?  The color of the cart is what determines which team you will be on for the 8:00 min. match.  Then, the announcer would turn on the electricity and off we went.  Yelling and bumping trying to get the little, white wiffle ball into 1 foot in diameter, round hole that is cut out of a basketball backboard.  Trust me, it’s not that easy (unless you have perfected your scoop throwing technique).

Then, Andy decided to turn it up a notch.  He threw in a little wager, had captains pick teams, and all of the sudden you would have thought Sixthman was in a league or something.  Bumps and bruises have all healed, but I’m pretty sure we’ve discovered an annual outing.  Next year there will be brackets
