Notes
Not that I'm complaining, but it took me awhile to type these results. Despite our appalling 4th place finish, my fingers are still numb, just from having stepped outside briefly to grab this morning's newspaper *. My crack team of temp challenge consultants lobbied hard to award a Balmiest Leckband designation this morning, but I said, no, it would be adding insult to injury when the temperatures are that frigid, & the results are that close.
Up till now I have avoided any mention of my new grandson Calvin, born 1/22/16 to Nathan & Laura in Eagan, MN. I have accorded them that honor, & we finally saw evidence on Facebook last night. I had hoped that the first post-Calvin Temp Challenge would mean a victory for the little guy, but, alas, it was not to be.
