The Beach Club. That was the name of our house in Whitewater during my senior year in college. And - these are the Beach Club guys. Stuey, Tom, Steve, me and Saad. This was at the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa in Lake Geneva, WI (the former Playboy Club) in October during our 20th college reunion.

Tom lives in Wheaton, IL and is my best friend. We met while we were resident assistants at college. Stuey went to high school with Tom, and Steve and Saad were one-time roommates of Tom's. Stuey and Steve are both in WI and Saad is in IL, but we're all originally from WI (no FIBS allowed in the Beach Club). I could regale you with dozens of stories about our year at The Beach Club, but you really had to "live" it in order to "get it". Grab a beer and put on Luther Vandross' version of "Superstar" on your stereo. Our house theme song. It's a good start.

Stuey shoulda stood in the middle, eh?
