The yakathon is the annual tweeters meeting where we all bring our pet
yaks. Then we give prizes for Biggest Yak, Brownest Yak, Heaviest Yak,
Yak with Longest Tail, most amusing Yak Story, and so on. The yaks
haven't seen one another all year, and they enjoy getting together and
catching up. So do the tweeters. So groom your yak, fatten it up or dye
it brown or stretch its tail out, put on your Official Yak Breeder's
Uniform with the Official Tweeters Yak Logo (an Asian Black Yakbird
standing on a yak's back), hide a bottle of wine in a brown paper bag, and
come on along.
