The Weekly Email By Betsy--10-20-09

[Betsy]

scoober reboocs,

the tournament season is ending on a high note, with beijing
representatives bringing strong teams to hong kong and manila. betsy
promises a fantastic time at both tournaments, and not like what
happened the time when tao was drunk on baijiu and he promised
everyone they would be taken up to the great celestial city by the
emissaries of the heavenly aeon in a plastic disc-shaped space-vessel
powered by baijiu. betsy recalls everyone was a little disappointed,
as it clearly did not look anything like a frisbee.


WEEKLY ITEM #1: The Weekly Schedule

Every Tuesday, Pick Up, 8-10, Deshengmen

remember to pack you woolies and mittens, as the pitch will be
powerful brisk in the evening.

Every Sunday, Pick Up, 3-6, Happy Valley or ISB

show your support for beijing bang this weekend by staying in beijing
and playing pick-up. is this the last of fall’s wonderful weather?
possibly!

WEEKLY ITEM #2: Upcoming Tournaments

Oct 24-25: Hong Kong in Hong Kong, China.
Oct 28-31: Boracay Beach Tournament in Boracay, Philippines.
Nov 6: Worlds Qualifier in Manila
Nov 7-8: Manila Spirits in Manila, Philippines.

really, if you haven’t made your plans to go to at least one of these
tournaments by now, you should probably just start hibernating
immediately. only six months to jeju.

now is the time in the weekly email when betsy gives her weekly shout
outs and call outs. remember, you want to get shouted out, but you
don't want to get called out.

a shout out to bill. thanks for running and organizing a fantastic
clinic on saturday. chris would be proud.

a call out to chris. chris wins the award for only person to not
attend the clinic on saturday. congratulations, chris, for the no-
attendance thing.

a shout out to gareth, alicia, jeff, jim, barbie, shen, and mike. you
helped run the clinic. you are bad mamma jammas, you are the sunshine
of betsy’s life, and other stevie wonder lyrics.

a call out to sciatica. you know what sciatica? you’ve got some
nerve. or you are nerves, or something, betsy isn’t really sure and
wikipedia was a little vague. anyway, you’re not very nice. betsy
and joe are going to have a serious talk about your future. you will
remain called out until further notice.

a shout out to beijing bang. represent beijing well. big brother
has more important things to do this weekend, like, there’s this party
at chocolate on thursday. most of big brother probably won’t be
going, but they like to keep their schedules open just in case. jia
you bang.

a call out to fall. where are you going? come back here, betsy’s not
done with you yet.

a shout out to char. if you shout out to char, but she's not around
to hear it, does she still remain shouted out?

WEEKLY ITEM #3: Lunch Time Poll

beijing ultimate is growing in numbers this fall, and is expected to
continue through the winter, in part because beijing is expecting it’s
first ultimate baby. mike may have played an integral role in the
baby-making, but we are all responsible. many are the times mike has
been liquored up and sent home to his wife, judgment inhibited. as
such, it’s only fair that the community collectively decide the
name.

which of these is the most appropriate name for baby shyu? as always,
feel free to write in your own suggestion.

a) eleventh edition shyu

b) garethia andsandy shyu

c) whosacutie yesyouare shyu

d) espn.com/shyu

cast your votes!

and finally, your moment of zen…
