SAD TO SAY, the luck o' the Irish was not with me this evening!  I lost my 2012 Shuffleboard Championship title in this year's playoffs.

Of course, I'd have to say, when considering the venue, and the camaraderie with fellow competitors and spectators and even that one in attendance who never even watched the games, but simply lay on the floor making tiny comments and practicing his choir-conducting skills, I did have more than a wee bit o' fantastic good luck!
