gamers for giving 2!

2009.01.02

this is the second one i’ve been a part of and help run.  here is a bit about the event:

Each year, our foundation hosts one of the largest video game conventions in the state of Michigan, Gamers for Giving. Gamers for Giving acts as our primary annual fundraising event. It’s a 3-day-straight gaming event where gamers have the chance to come together for charity. Last year, our event helped to promote Autism research, education, and awareness by generating needed funds for a local chapter of the Autism Society of America. This year, Gamers for Giving will focus on raising funds to catapult our own 2009 community initiatives.

mpcon is dead.  long live mpcon!

chuck’s bachelor party

2008.12.13

we started out with sushi @ musashi in southfield.  after, we headed over to the comedy castle for some laughs.  jer and pat stopped for a burger king crown we made chuck wear for the rest of the night.  at some point, the comedian asked the crowd if anyone was ADD.  chuck answered, ‘yes.’
“do you have any problems studying?”
“no. i just graduated from u of m and am the commencement speaker!”
“well then.  what’s your GPA?”
“3.85”
“what?  the guy with the 4.0 wasn’t available?  larry couldn’t do it?  are you sure he’s not available?  do you think ADD is inherited?”
“no.”
“you killed the joke.”

fun ensued at zap-zone with go-carts and laser tag.  we finished the evening watching shoot em up.

awesome bachelor party.  glad i had a hand in planning it.  it was fairly tame so pictures were safe.
