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

have to try this team first.

B) Boston Bruins

M) New York Rangers

Y) Pittsburgh Penguins

Sorry Quis, not the Bruins. Not the Rangers either. I sorta thought Rocky would get this, but who knew, your go next Lad Boy. I am indeed a Penguins fan.

Upon the demise of our 7 year old Volkswagen (never, never another VW in my future), my wife bought a . . .

(1)Toyota Prius
(2)Honda Pilot
(3)Toyota Highlander Hybrid
(4)Mercedes R320 diesel
(5)Honda Accord Hybrid
(6)Lear Jet -- used,of course
(7)nothing, we're carfree cityfolk now.

(3)Toyota Highlander Hybrid

No Highlander. We had rented one and enjoyed during the VW's mid-vacation breakdown, but didn't feel compelled to buy one.

(5)Honda Accord Hybrid?

(Nice little car, that)

Whoa, nothing American made (automobile that is... I have no idea where the Lear is made)?

(4)Mercedes R320 diesel

(1)Toyota Prius

(2)Honda Pilot

No Accord Hybrid -- fears of falling asleep at the wheel.

The Mercedes was the closest contender. Mrs. Lad Boy was mesmerized by the panoramic roof. In a rare, for her, concession to impulse over logic, she almost plunked down her annual bonus on one. But our German car experience carried over to the MB and we opted for practicality over mesmerizibility.

Prius -- You must be kidding. I think you have to win an essay contest to be considered for the waiting list for one of those.

The winner is Quislet and the Honda Pilot. Seats 8 so now we can have three more children -- we call it keeping up with the Cobalts.


....but alas the car story takes a turn for the worse. In the rainfall of tropical storm Hanna, I crashed the massive Pilot into a tiny Honda CRV that failed to yield at a traffic light. No major injuries, just some seatbelt burns and coughing and gagging for inhaling the explosive residues from the discharge of the airbags. It was a classic big car v little car confrontation with our big car demonstrating that safety is inversely related to fuel economy. Maybe we'll go for the panoramic sunroof this time.

I need a good attorney...Ahh Quislet, it's your turn.

Yay for the paranomic sunroof. And do keep us informed of the "three more children" part

OK which of these current TV dramas is my favorite?

1) ER
2) Law & Order
3) Heroes
4) Brothers & Sisters
5) The Closer
6) Entourage
7) The Tudors
8) Chuck
9) Ugly Betty
10) Numb3rs

Hmmm... maybe as a lawyer you like to pick apart:

2) Law & Order?

I like Law & Order. I remember one episode where they used a legal concept I had just learned in law school. I kind of hate the opening where they show "LAW" and then the cops and "Order" and show the lawyers when cops represent Order and the lawyers represent Law.

So it is not my favorite.

7) The Tudors

I know I like it

Well, I do like history and Jonathan Rhys Meyers is a cutie, but I have not seen the Tudors.

Howzabout:

10) Numb3rs

Any show that has the leads from "Taxi," "Northern Exposure," and a Giffen era "Justice League" pilot has got to score some fave points.

Numb3rs sounds like an interesting show, but I haven't seen it. Should I start watching it?

I've only seen it a couple of times, but it seemed enjoyable enough. I think there might be a pretty large "suspension of disbelief" factor that so many crimes can be solved by examining the mathematical patterns of a criminal's actions.

3) Heroes

Heroes is great. I can't wait for the next season. But it is not my favorite.
