Well, for September, Eric was the only member of the warlike cantata to make it over. So, we decided to update the Kriegspiel Tournament score by a simple throw of the die!
The highest roller would get first place for the night and second highest would get second place. All others who neglected to show up and those who truly couldn't make it would receive a score of 10 for the month of September. Most unfortunate.
Eric grasped the die with the sweaty palm of his hand and held his breath. And guess what? The die rolled off the countertop and fell on the floor! I could only chuckle to myself considering the number of years that Eric has consistently managed to roll his dice off the table. He picked up the die and finally rolled a "two"! I smiled devilishly knowing that I had a good chance to make "first" place this night. I picked up the die and tossed it haphazardly upon the marble counter in the kitchen - a "5"!
