Earlier in the week Smuggler was coerced into Q’ing The Body Shop by someone at Bushwood. Smuggler, fresh off a whirlwind easy cost trip, was game — apparently the coercer was not and didn’t show. String workout — as expected — by the Q and to everyone’s surprise, he didn’t even need to take advantage of Smuggler’s Notch, the eponymous on-site port-a-potty. But the biggest deal of the day was Orchid bringing his 2.0 out bright and early. A gamer, the FNG walked away with the name Sonic even though the hedgehog friend is not in his usual gaming rotation — but he did at least recognize that name more than others suggested such as Frogger, Pitfall, Q-Bert and Pong. After a few minutes of old guys getting lost in remembering games we grew up on, we had to cut it off and just name him Sonic.
