The year is coming to a close, which means one thing...
The yearly Scavenger Hunt, put together by my beautiful friends.
The Scavenger Hunt is possibly the best day of the year. Better than christmas, halloween, easter, etc. put together. It is the one day where i can take the few morals i have, roll them up into a nice ball, light that ball on fire and then drop kick this ball into the pregnancy ward of a hospital.
24 hours of pure awe, as my team and i try to complete inane tasks to achieve points to win a money pot that can buy us no more than a few gallons of gas.
It's not about the money, it's about the street credibility to be obtained from such an event.
Who wouldn't want to have some come up to them and ask "Hey, aren't you the guy who lit that bush on fire in front of the police station" or "Hey aren't you the guy that walked the lobster through Wal-Mart screaming, 'Look at what radiation did to my dog,'?"
A day of ball sacks, bodily fluids, illegal activities, stealing, kidnapping, speeding, etc.
anything you can imagine. It's beautiful and i am so ready.
This will be the fourth annual hunt with a total of 10 teams at the moment rivaling the first year's 3 teams.
Here are the official rules, just incase you were really that curious:
Help us fight boredom.

SCAVENGER HUNT
O F F I C I A L R U L E S
Winter 2009
Since the beginning of man's existence, he has had to scavenge or hunt for food and other important items in order to survive. Over time, wandering food-gathering people began to settle down and become stationary food-producing people, thus followed towns, villages, and whole civilizations. The need for scavenging changed into a need for producing, but the concept of scavenger hunting never faded from civilization completely. The game of scavenger hunting is a simulation of what was once an important and necessary work in order for the human race to survive. - Wikipedia
