I haven't played today.

I'm in the top 1,000 for a moment, after getting a question right about the Gulf of Bothnia, thanks to the Bored August QOD.

today I got 1436 pts!

I don't think I ever got it that fast before!

Might be back in the top 100!

Of course it was a food question disguised as a vocab Q.

Wheelhouse!

Uh oh, better settle down lest the Sploofus gods hear me and karma bites me for celebrating!

I think that Mr. Kelley is banking questions. :)

I don't bank mine because I enjoy Sploofusing regularly.

No score for me today as I got a question where I picked the wrong Sinclair (Upton vs. Lewis).

Did it have to do with the 1934 California Gubernatorial race?

No... I don't think we need to beat that dead horse again. :P

It was naming the author of "Elmer Gantry".

Some days have questions that have me say "How the hell would I ever know this?"

Today was one of those days.

Much as I'd like to claim top 100 status, I think you meant top 1000. I'm probably #250 or so. It was a lost weekend.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

Huh. My understanding is that Weyoun is Ggossage's son. Those two are #1 and #2 on the whole Sploofus board. So, nah, no father-son rivalry there. Paging Dr. Freud, white courtesy phone, please.

I am having a really good month so far on Sploofus. (Knock on wood!)
I've missed one question.

After last month, I needed a good month!
