I'm voting Estonut a Mini Point for #10!

Trying to be funny?

I wasn't actually funny?

You're giving out JJC points for effort, now, like the "participation" trophies that get handed out in youth sports leagues, because we can't give the impression that there are winners and losers? :roll:

I didn't say you weren't funny....

I just said you were trying to be funny....

You were trying to be funny, weren't you?

Sheesh! I guess Estonut really does have a gripe with me because I skipped right over that one!

I have adjusted his score accordingly....

Well, after you tied my reception of the deceptive Happy Card into the theme, I had to make some effort, didn't I?

I did like that. Problem is, I saw Viagra, kinda chuckled at the way it fit the theme, then went on without looking at the "artist"....

You have your vagueness, I have my attention deficit..... :P

That's the problem with being of the same mind--when it's your turn to use it, I'm toast! Same with you, I guess.

It's better than the time we tried splitting it in half, though....

:P

And lately, Fanny's been borrowing it a lot, so we've each gotten 17% dumber....

Saucy gets 2 JJC points because I am almost positive that Victory was a shutout the first time I ran this game (It's possible starfish got it, but... hey, where was he this game!?!?!?), and anyway, I thought it was funny that Saucy was the first one to know it this time around...
Hey!! I'm not proud I knew it, but I'll take any cheap points...

I was going to let this slide, as you guys were being so complimentary, but after the recent educational discussion and nelly's light bulb joke, I feel compelled to respond.

I assume by the 17% that you mean you are each contributing 17% (or 1/6th) of the brain you share to Fanny, leaving each of you with 33% (1/3rd) of the original and her with 34% (1/3) of the original. If so, then each of you contributing 17% (1/6) of your shared brain makes each of you 34% (1/3) dumber, not 17% (1/6).

Apparently Business Math wasn't a requirement when you went to school? :lol:

Sorry LB but there is just no way I can play LS from my blackberry and I am stuck in the hospital with no internet access for at least the next 24 hours until we can get a hotel room.

Keep on without me.
