Wizard,

As an age old Boat racer and veteran of many a dispute I can assure you and all the other fellow flying giants members that the spillage so questioned is FROTH and FROTH dont count mate.

Well looks like the rest of the world had a pretty good week in TUCSON.

YEEEHHAAAAAAAAAAAAA, The party will be on tonight I bet.

I did not drink quite as fast as I thought I would. I apologize to the country that I defend for my lack luster performance.

Rigourous retraining will occur! But I can tell you one thing......there was no spillage like some others....
