This year at the annual Tai Pan BBQ The Monster Croquette game took an interesting turn. Monster Croquette, for those who don't know, is a game of Croquette that takes place over the oddest terrain we can find and over a very large course. Rocks, trees, dry creek beds, slopes, all fair game. ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) chuck_melville usually wins. He's that good. The game should be subtitled "Beat Chuck". This year was different, and not because I came close to knocking Chuck out before he could become poison [arrgh! So close!] No, it was our host, Amy. The True Dark Horse Winner. Not only did she struggle at the back of the pack, but she also took time out to chase dogs from the field and picnic food, made sure everyone had coats when it got cold, went to the bottom of the hill to get mail, and shuffled chairs about so spectators could sit, but she also didn't run from the poison players. She plodded through the course, and in the end, saved the youngest two players for last, letting them play for as long as they could. A game to remember among the Tai Pan BBQ history books. [Some one needs to write a book.... Do we have any writers here? *_^ ] Congratulations on a great game Amy. Tags: tai pan

Snagged from jwyldragon
Your result for The What Middle Earth race do you belong to Test... Wizard
You scored high in morality and intelligence, but lower in physical strength and aggression, which means you're probably a Wizard. Counted among the very wise and (with that one exception) good creatures of Middle Earth are the Wizards, or Istari. Though they appear as old men, the Istari are actually powerful Maiar spirits sent from Valinor to Middle Earth to act as caretakers of the land and guides to men and beasts. Their supernatural heritage means they're also the only line of defense against rogue Maiar like Balrogs. Though only Gandalf, Saruman and Radagast are named through the novels, there are two other Wizards at large in Middle Earth, quietly working to bring tranquility to their surroundings.
Your polar opposite is the Urûk-Hai. Take The What Middle Earth race do you belong to Test at HelloQuizzy
******************************************************************************************************************* And Juli-Sans-E's results. Your result for The What Middle Earth race do you belong to Test... Elf
You're an Elf! You scored low in size, high in morality, high in aggression and high in intelligence to get here. The first and favorite race created by the Valar, the Elves have been in Middle Earth for many ages, and are currently the only race allowed to join their creators in Valinor. Blessed with eternal life, enhanced senses, great beauty, wisdom and skill, the race of Elves still has several black marks on it. (Kinslaying, anyone?) But hey, no one is perfect, right? Of course not, but the Elves are damn close to it. FYI, your polar opposite is the Troll. Take The What Middle Earth race do you belong to Test at HelloQuizzy

[voice = Rod Serling ] You're moving through another dimension. A dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind. Where the imagination meets with glass and fire in an hypnotic dance of vivid color that can change and fade to a swirling black and white morass of spinning yet stationary ribbons. There's the acetylene torch up ahead! Your next stop: ThE CHiHuLy ZoNe. [/voice] Today Juli, along with her mum and my parents, went to the museums in Tacoma. We started with the Tacoma Art Museum and took in some great Renoir sketches and prints. There were a number of other artists work there including one who was featured on Evening Magazine last night. All very cool. THe next stop was the Museum of Glass. Most of it was closed because Norm Dicks was having some sort of party there. We got a great discount on getting in to the parts that were open. Wow! Loved it. In truth, there are only one or two Chihuly pieces there. The rest are by other artists. There were a couple of black and clear plates that look like hypnotic spirals, thus inspiring the script above. Day! Tags: vacation
