What follows is the official log as we were required to report it to Max, our judge. This log was only intermittently available for us to see, thus adding to the intrigue and subterfuge. And Max in his wisdom also allowed us to post entries to the log which remained invisible to our opponents even when others were apparent, thus adding to the intrigue and subterfuge. And of course, all this was completely independent of our blogs, thus adding to the intrigue and subterfuge. you get the idea.

Eric1/4/04 11:3085.05g / 3oz"Corned Beef Hash from Walker Bros Pancake Restaurant. Not a good choice, I'm afraid. The meat was a bit raw. But my mouth will overflow with blood, if necessary, to take the prize."
