take off your pants.

Thursday September 29th is the D*'s Second Annual Model UN Boat-Race. It's time for us to do our part for international diplomacy and celebrate the diversity of the nations of the world by dressing up as stereotypes and drinking generic Canadian beer!

There will be prizes for the best costume, so don't suffer the shame of being the worst dressed team in the parade of nations.

See you on Thursday!

PS for those not in the know, a boatrace is a traditional negotiating device
used in international relations where teams of 5 people line up opposite each other and have a beer drinking relay race. The race begins and a team's first member must drink his or her beer as quickly as possible. As soon as the first team member's cup is empty and turned upside down on his or her head, the second person on the team may begin and do the same thing. The race continues down the line until it reaches the fifth team member in "the turnaround position" who must drink two beers and send the race back down the line to finish with the first team member. The team that finishes first wins, thus gaining untold power in the international arena over the defeated nation.
