It may interest you, dear readers, to know that the authorities did in fact catch up with our faithful contributor Joseph, who broke out of jail last week to reunite with his Avocado seedling. Knowing that the feds were hot on his tail, he fled the city for the sunny beaches of South Carolina, hoping that the salty air would muddle their tracking devices. But as it turns out, it takes more than a little salt to throw off the fuzz. I myself was in SC as well, attending the much anticipated wedding of my dear brother and avocado enthusiast (you may know him as Recorder of Pedigrees). Joseph was able to stop by this raging party for a few minutes to meet his loyal fan before helicopters, snipers, flashing lights and sirens showed up to sweep him away. We lamented his absence for at least 4 minutes before returning to the ice luge. Unfortunately, Hugo was unable to attend the soiree, as he did not exist when the invitations were printed.
Though Hugo is still a bit young to party with the best of us, his popularity has FAR exceeded our expectations. Hugo Chavocado mania is sweeping the nation! One of Hugo's loyal followers even started a facebook group (certainly not in response to pressure from us). http://bowdoin.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2258593692&ref=mf
To date, the group boasts 65 members, all of whom are appointed officers upon joining. Despite the disturbing eagerness of the members to devour Hugo's future avocado babies, it warms our hearts to see the overwhelming love and support that our little Hugo Chavocado has received.
So here's to you, faithful readers and loyal group members (except the Sworn Enemy Officer who decided to start a rival facebook group, ya jerk)......what was I saying? OH right. Here's to you, faithful readers and loyal group members. May your avocados always be ripe and tasty, may your guacamole always be Venezuelan and may you continue to love and support Hugo on his journey to a long and fruitful adulthood (pun INTENDED).
Cheers! *clink*
