Background
McChad graciously agreed to host the BBQ once again. Thanks man. In the excitement of realizing the team had survived and thrived for 5 years I volunteered to throw in for a keg.

I think I only discussed paying for it. But if you need help we can meet up on Friday. It's defintely going to have to go into your car or truck.

FYI, the Keg through Applejack is $130, not including $75 total deposits for the tap and keg return.
Are you ok with that?

Are we going to drink a full keg? If so, sure. Otherwise I'll be up to donating $60 for an assortment of good 6 packs.

I don't think we will drink a keg and I think your $60 would be more productive than $130 toward a keg.
From past experience $100-120 usually covers booze alone.

No assistance needed. Since you reneged on your commitment to a keg, I cancelled the keg
order yesterday. Instead I'll be stocking up on 12 pks and cases, some wine and booze at Applejack
later this afternoon. If you want to chip in some cash for the booze, that would be great.
My trip to Costco for the food and supplies is the evening. I hope to ride early w/ Los and then will
be icing everything down by early afternoon. That right, I said "reneged."

son of a bitch...
Where is reneged here?
I'll throw some money at the problem, especially if it gets you drunk enough to give me a big hug.
So as you can see, until the end I was willing to pay for and help pick up the keg. I just had no way of getting the keg there, especially considering my car was full of HART team gear and kits.

DRAMA.
Dont' back down, Chad. Doug reneged on his promise to make me a man years ago. That's right. I said "reneged."
Note that Doug's July 18 e-mail is his polite way of saying "I don't want to pay friggin $130 for a keg, but you if you can buy a keg of swill and bar rag for $60 I'm good for it."
Also note that while the actual alcohol expeditures exceeded $130 anyway, I still have not received a penny from Douglas. He promises me his good for it...
Oh, and thank you Doug for posting this on the blog and making me register with Google to simply state facts that everyone alreadys knows...
When am I polite about anything. If I didn't want to pay 130 I'd have said so.
Shut up. If you pussies had wrestled when you had the chance, this all would be over. Now we have to rely on these silly "facts." Haven't we learned that violence solves all disputes?
Oh, and by polite I think Chad meant wormy.
Meanwhile, back at the kindegarten playground, Billy called Bobby a name, and Bobby dumped his milk over Billy's head . . . .
