At least, we think so…
Scott: you’re on my calendar now
Scott: 9:00 am – meeting
Scott: 6:00pm – Drinks with KT
KT: That’s an impressive calendar you’ve got there
Scott: I know, it’s very fancy
Scott: I’m a busy man
Scott: 3:00pm – stand around looking important
KT: hehe
Scott: 4:00pm – make annoying comments to coworkers
KT: that’s my favorite hour
Scott: haha
KT: that’s a busy day
Scott: 10am-2pm – croquet lessons
KT: That’s a long lesson…
KT: I’m a little suspicious.
Scott: It’s a suprisingly complicated sport
Scott: With a long and illustrious history
KT: Do tell…
Scott: Well it all started (as many things do) with the ancient Etruscians.
KT: interesting…
Scott: Who used to hit small gophers through the doorways of unpopular businesses with large decorative mallets
KT: doubtful…
Scott: Over time the doorways shrank, as did the mallets, but interestingly, live gophers were still used in professional matches up until 1953.
KT: Not True.
Scott: You’re right, it was 1954, but I was hoping you hadn’t heard of the “Smith-Hardy Gopher Act of 1953″
KT: Can’t pass bad facts off on me…
Scott: Nothing gets by you
KT: that’s right
Scott: Man, I should totally start offering croquet lessons online
Scott: When people show up, I’ll take their money and just make stuff up for about four hours
Scott: No croquet will actually be played
KT: good idea
Scott: This is a theory class
Scott: Croquet Theory and History 101 with Professor Vandehey
Scott: Refunds are available during my office hours, between 2:15 and 2:27am under the burnside bridge
Scott: Payable entirely in cooking sherry
KT: A pre-req for Comparative Croquet 202
KT: mmm…cooking sherry
I'm a 31-year-old 
I’m really looking forward to the Comparative Croquet 202 class….
