[Shotimes] OT was ST now Taurus Convention

[Donald Mallinson]

No, we play pin the tail on the Bull!

hats with horns optional.

This year, we are giving a prize (NOT) for the first SHO to 
arrive with a set of those bull "balls" hanging from the 
rear bumper.

Can't let those Truck people get ahead of us you know!
