Heat: Pedal to the Metal |
Mike Gerdov
|
What better way to make use of this excess heat than playing HEAT and putting the pedal to the metal. Stephan goes Sunday driving by being a full quadrant behind the pack for the majority of the game. Mike crosses the line by 7 extra tiles, followed closely by Alain and Kevin. |

SMAK. Alain is back from Ireland and he brings Bushmills Irish Whiskey, whiskey-flavoured chocolate, and a deck of cards bought at the Trinity College Library. We talk about his trip, the influence of AI in the publishing industry and the music industry, and Mike’s new 3-D printing machine which he assembled himself. We also wonder if there is such a thing as alcohol-free whiskey (turns out there is).

Kevin and Stephan end up with only 1 point difference (216 and 215 respectively) but they are both left in the dust by Mike and his 252 points. Mike sure knows how to erect towers.
