Maddie is on Shokus now

#1 Post by PlacentiaSoccerMom » Fri Jun 27, 2008 7:28 pm

Maddie is on Shokus now.

The sucky thing is that I had to take back the new computer and get a new computer. I've been working on some Windows problems and the disk drive failed. Then the computer stopped turning on altogether.

This is a new new computer.

I'm multitasking. I've got Duel on the TV. I just tuned in to Shokus in time to hear the question about the tea party in India. I assume Maddie was on earlier, and if she won, she'll be back on in a few minutes.

What brand did you buy?

Yes she won the first round. She was playing against an 18 year old senior who has a 25 year old boyfriend.

It's another HP Pavillion. Everything about this system has been much easier to deal with.

Outstanding final round, Maddie! You smoked that little smart mouth, Dylan. Now I'm waiting for the Bonus Round . . .

And she took it to 'em! Congrats, Maddie.

Will everyone have to address you as Your Highness, now that they've dubbed you the Teen Queen?

This is a gratuitous post, just because I needed to make 500.

Do you make the squirrel avatars or do you just find them?

I have enslaved a family of squirrels and I force them to pose in ridiculous clothing. I make sure they get an adequate supply of non-tainted tomatoes.
