Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION Spaceopoly The "Know Your Legion Worlders" Game Round Three

Opps. I mean:
1) Crestwood Platinum Gravy Boat

Cuz I'm a Metal Men fan, and so are you.

7) Oxo 12 inch Rolling Pin

...for post-newlywed spat husband-chasing?

Even in Santiago, I did not get then the 3 piece serving set.

It has gotten decidedly chile in this thread.

Punning will not help you win this game.

Well, if I can't actually be clever enuf to win this game, at least I can pretend to be clever by punning, non?

OK, how about:
4) Kitchen Smart Oven Mitt

To most of these questions it is not a matter of being clever, but of guessing correctly.

And unfortunately, you have again guessed incorrectly.

And I didn't notice the other guesses.

Exnihil did guess correctly. Kind of as a joke, I got her the rolling pin. But she doesn't need it to keep him in line.

Okey doke.

Of the following "celebrities" that I've met, which one is (or was) actually a relative of mine?

A. Olympic gymnast, Mary Lou Retton
B. Cult film star, Bruce Campbell
C. Reggae singer, Eddie Grant
D. Former NFL quarterback, Neil Lomax
E. Romance novelist, V. C. Andrews
F. Actress, Karen Allen
G. Former President, Bill Clinton
H. Singer, Sheryl Crow
I. Comic book artist, Martin Nodell
J. Comedian, John Stewart

I. Comic book artist, Martin Nodell

D. Former NFL quarterback, Neil Lomax

A. Olympic gymnast, Mary Lou Retton

I. Comic book artist, Martin Nodell - Nope; he created the Green Lantern, but had no part in creating the Nihil line.

D. Former NFL quarterback, Neil Lomax - No... and even if I was related, I'd not own up to it. Those '80's Cardinals were awful.

A. Olympic gymnast, Mary Lou Retton - No... which is good, as it makes the feelings I had as a young lad a lot less creepy.


So, the question remains, who is my relative with the claim to fame?

E. Romance novelist, V. C. Andrews

Ding, Ding, Ding! We have a winner!

The late Ms. Andre w s was my grandmother's cousin, which makes her my... third cousin? ... cousin twice-removed? ... a nice old woman that I met once when I was a little kid? Yeah! That last one.

Next round to Quislet.

Hmmm.. a question....

What did I have for dinner last night, Aug. 29th?

1) spaghetti and hamburger
2) leftover chef salad from lunch
3) a Hot Pocket <span style="font-size: 10px;">tm</span>
4) pizza
5) cold chicken and carrots
6) 2 bowls of Cheerios
7) a pint of Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia
8) 12 oz sirloin steak with a baked potato and mixed vegetables
9) vegetrian lasagna
10) Dinner??? I'm too busy posting at Legion World for eating

3) a Hot Pocket <span style="font-size: 10px;">tm</span>

(I don't actually believe this to be true, it just makes me smile to think of Hot Pockets: Humorous Hypotheticaaaaaaal Pocket!)

5) cold chicken and carrots

And, Ex, Ms. Andrews would be your first cousin, twice removed.

Not a Hot Pocket

Rocky gets it on his first try.

I did have cold fried chicken and a bag of baby carrots (raw)

I'll continue the theme. Yesterday, of course, was my birthday. What did I have for my birthday dinner?

And Quis wins again. Last night, I went with two dear friends to our favorite Mexican restaurant.

I went out with the same folks, plus one more person tonight and had sushi.

Over to you, Quis.
