So, this Friday I helped organize this Lockheed Party for the younger crowd. It's at a nightclub in DC, and it seems like it's going to kick ass. We are getting all these raffle prizes -- but it turns out I am not eligible for one. WHAT?!?! WHY?!?! I know I am just complaining, but why can't I get a prize. I worked to help put this thing together, and I am a member of CHAP (that's what the organization is called). I think that's a rip off. It's not like I would cheat and pull my name out. I would just have my ticket in the bowl with everyone else. Chances are I won't get picked, but it's cool to potentially get picked. Now, I am not as excited about the raffle prizes. We were giving away gift certificates to a whole bunch of restaurants and stores. Blech. Totally unfair. I wanted to see if we could change that, so I emailed the guy in charge of my division of CHAP, and he said he had no problem with it, but that he wasn't going to put his name in. Well, if he isn't, I can't either. BAH, HUMBUG.
