[LargeFormat] Introductions

[Brock Nanson]

Well make room for one more... after being caught driving with a
blood-alcohol level of about 0.16 on Maui one night earlier this month, our
Provincial Premier might be headed your way, if the people with the tar and
feathers don't get him first!  Luckily for him, it takes a really big fire
to get the tar to the ideal viscosity this time of the year.

Over in your part of the world, he would have been on the correct side of
the road and might have made it home unnoticed...

Around here in January there are plenty of reasons to drink yourself
stupid... but on Maui?  ;-)
