Congrats to Gavin Newton-Tanzer and Akshay Agashe for giving it your all…You’ll get another chance very soon. ;]

And of course, Bryony Langdon, for her amazing 3rd speaker award at her first try at public forum.

Akshay’s “crappy gift” was the most priceless. Living The Life of a Dog.

Our only problem was the sinking of inter-school BATTLESHIP!

henhud was a really really awesome tourney – i had an amazing time in addition to what were definitely the most competitive rounds i’ve had this entire season so far against some of the most talented debaters out there. congrats to:

1. my darling shivi for going 3-0 on her neg running something based off of some really sketchy dream thing (?), and for being the sweetest and best teammate everr
2. sporkin for our sweet 4-0 round in prelims in which he thoroughly deserved his win (and for the QUAL!!) :D
3. RidgeSC – steph is a really smart debater and superduper nice; congrats on doing really well in our round, regardless of how the judge may have ended up voting, and i’m sure you’ll get ur second bid real soon this year!
4. jason for picking up in our doubles round (very legitly)
5. …greg’s amazingness goes w/o saying. he’s won both tourneys he’s competed in so far this year and he’ll be winning 97982374783211 more before the season’s over. congrats to him for henhud/qualling/awesomeness

A Compendium of Things I Learned At Hen Hud

–Free will does not exist
–It is possible to use a gun to actually shoot yourself OUT the door (and thus, away from your oppressor)
–Although still up for debate, Greg Hertz resembles none other than the Easter Bunny (or perhaps other bunnies?)
–3 AM IM conversations are now valid psychological warrants
–Indians are very good at math problems
–In LD, we do a little something called impacting
–THERE IS NO CONTEXT IF THE RESOLUTION DOES NOT SPECIFY IT
–lol.

Sincerely,
Naveen (who is also not God, on a 3-0 decision)
