fall ball 2007!

20Nov07

A definite hit and a must-go for anyone who missed out this year. Kudos to the organizers! 400+ people, huge ballroom, sit-down catering (3-course meal!), and a good time all around…

But, we all know that incentives without a feedback mechanism result in poor alignment. So, as far as I’m concerned, I’ve given my kudos and so I’m now responsible (read: entitled) to provide feedback.

And, in proper 15.280 fashion:

I feel that… the Lobster Bisque and Insanely-Rich Triple Chocolate Cake were so good that future payments of gout suffering are sufficiently offset. Your results may vary based on personal discount rates,genetic risk, and time to maturity.

Next time, try… going easy on the asparagus. Keeping in mind that this was the single occasion that Sloanies could use to impress their dates, asparagus promises to be a real mood killer. In fact, because this future affliction is a relative certainty, it’s really in your best interest to recognize it immediately. Fortunately for you, an allowance for doubtful accounts action is easily created through creative discretion of the open bar. A word of caution… dates from across the river may not appreciate you reaching into their “cookie jars”.
