    Re: Hawaii Threads Trivia Contest -- Go Fourth and Multiply

    Perfect examples of why the AF is glad to be an only child...


    Oh, and a half-way through message to Scrivener: thanks for all the work to put this together again; I'm having a good time with it.

    Don't you worry about Goat Lady... hehehe... we'll take GOOD care of her. Hehehe. Can you say:

    "Oops, the internet died! I wonder what happened?"

    "Oops, the laptop fell in the pool! Auwe! You lost everything!"

    "Oops, I spilled turkey gravy in your laptop keyboard! Yes, sloppy of me, a whole quart! Guess I'll have to buy you another one... for Christmas. Or maybe Easter."

    Why do I have a feeling there are going to be a few appeals for "leather?"
    I'll make a deal.... give me the point for the teppan-yaki and I'll concede on the leather question Actually, I knew leather was wrong and was pretty sure glue was too. Never thought of gelatin. Now that I know how it's made I'm going to rethink that strawberry jell-o.

    I need every point I can get, in pursuit of "Goat Lady."
    Dick Cheney is gonna invite you hunting soon, Scrivener. My advice is to decline.
    Hahaha And I'm still appealing my (and Liberty's) correct answer to the Modesto Bee question! Need every point I can get to stay AHEAD of you as I see you've been answering every question correctly!

    Hmm, can't find anything else. I'll concede.

    Okay, so let's say the question began with, "Which of Snow White's dwarfs...?" and your answer had been:

    "Sleepy! It's got to be Sleepy! Right?
    Or is it Sneezy?
    Or Doc?
    Wait, could it be Dopey?
    It's not Happy or Bashful, is it?
    Um, Grumpy?"

    And let's say the answer is Grumpy. Should you get credit for THAT?

    But think about it. If it had been a true/false question, and your answer had been "True? False?" would you have expected credit if the answer were "false?"
    No, I would not expect credit for "false?", but this was not a true-false question.

    Guess we need a "Lock in your final answer" button.

    I did the same thing. I listed gelatin, but it had a question mark after it. I was disqualed, too. I am appealing.

    Supreme Court, buddy. Better watch out, I might jump into Honolulu Harbor or something equally stupid!

    Thanks for pointing it out, Leo. I'm locked and loaded, and ready to battle.

    When it comes to this trivia thread, I'd fight everyone competing on the spot if I ran into them in public.

    Lakers Ikimasho!
