2. He's awesome.
We just determined (haven't seen one another or spoken for awhile) that we will do something together for Christmas. Probably get together and watch a movie or something.

4. That's awesome! It's always nice to have friendly neighbors.
He sounds like a sweet guy, to go out (in the snow!) to do something for his neighbor for Christmas.

7. I worry about him walking through the snow like that -
He's fallen a number of times over the few years we've been living next to one another .... so he scares me when he's not exceptionally careful.

8. You might want to save some of that for David.
He's going to need it once he sees the score of the DU Super Bowl. :D

10. Let the record reflect that once I TRIED to win, I lost.
Once I started thinking, I made HORRIBLE errors. I should have kicked your ass today, but over thinking did me in. So, congratulations.
