3pipeproblemWe lost the first game and won the second. We got a $50 gift certificate to a cafe, but considering I've never heard of the cafe or the people on my team, I didn't really profit by it. It was fun, if only because I was the only one who could answer the "identify the actor by the characters he's played" questions. Sid Hudgins=Danny DeVito, baby!
There were several people playing who'd never heard of Paul Newman. Or Richard Burton. My house dean and I rolled our eyes at each other constantly.
Plus, they said The Sting took place in LA. That hurt.
Overall, it was good times.
[Poll #216307]
And if I could edit this poll, I would add as an option "The fact that I misspelled 'immensely,' quite possibly just because it looks closer to 'Wesley' when misspelled."

And then there was the person who confused Basic Instinct with Edward Scissorhands...there was a lot of facepalming going on.
