Best Birthday Present Ever!

Ahoy hoy to the armies of webheads religiously checkin' our site (Steve's sister). Just a quick note to let you all know what your daily doctors of buffoonery have been up to.

Last weekend, in anticipation of our upcoming website launch (huge) the four of us decided to go on a team-building excursion. Since I currently call Japan my cribby we had to find a convenient geographical location. We wound up agreeing on Yonkers, NY because Justin doesn't have a car and Andrew didn't get off work til after 5 on Friday. I was fine with Yonkers because rapping artiste DMX is from there, and he reminds me a lot of Ja Rule (who I love).

What an enriching experience! I won at Trust Falls 5-0 against Steve, we got into a human knot in no time, and our midnight game of Truth or Truth had us all in the nude within seconds. But the best moment came as a real surprise to yours truly. And for it, I have to once again send my heartfelt thanks to all the guys.

Now as many of you know, I was an accident. But what may come as a surprise to you is that my parents tried to cancel my delivery. Unfortunately for them I was a lil trooper and prevailed! As a sort of eff you to the ole rents I was born a twin. My better half, Reggie Weiner, lived for only 8 months. Ever since his passing I have felt a sincere lack.

That problem is now solved. As we gathered up Schlitz cans on Sunday morning Andrew handed me a well-ventilated cardboard box. On the top it read, "For the family." As I flipped back the top I saw a porcelain spiral. At the shell's end were a few tiny red nubs. Tied around it was a string and tag that read, "Hey Sean. I've missed you." Reggie was back.

To have Reggie the Hermit Crab by my side has made the world sparkle again. People say hermit crabs don't do anything. Well, neither do 8-month-old babies.

And the funny thing is, I don't know how the guys did it, but every now and then Reggie moves to a new shell. And when he's crawling naked across the gravel, he looks exactly as I remember him.

Thanks guys. Best birthday present ever.
