I'm always up for preventing bad things from happening.

> The Cracker Barrel was mobbed. The giant porches Cracker Barrels are famous for were packed. There was no way we were getting 14 people in there in a reasonable amount of time. But I figured I'd pop out and check anyway. If you're counting, you'll note we only had 13 people by that point, but Monkeyman stayed behind at the hotel, expecting Issachar to arrive at any time, and they would meet us there.

Actually, I was expecting Selah, Julia_AM, Gahalyn, and TOM to arrive, because they had said they would be there around 8:00. It was when they showed up that I left for supper.

> I began with the question, "Are you for RU4?" (Monkeyman was against it)

Although in all honesty, I had no idea what I was against at the time. I think I thought I was being asked if I was four, but most people tend to correlate my behaviour more with the terrible twos than with the much more mature four-year-old age group. :-)

> - Lightest eye color? This resulted in at least three people coming up and sticking their eyes out at me as we tried to figure this out. Meanwhile, Leen spotted James hanging back, so she went over to him and made him come up, and as soon as he showed up, it was no contest. Good for you, Leen.

James defeated me and Gahalyn on this one, but I noticed on Sunday that the two of them had pretty much identical eyes. Both of them admitted to be aliens with constantly changing eyes, though, and I seem to remember James' eyes being clearly the lightest on Saturday.

> - Who is the loudest? I tossed a chip to Monkeyman before anyone could answer.

Some contests I will never lose.

> - Most likely to become a starship captain? Two winners; one was Monkeyman, because of that RU photo that looks like he's wearing the uniform, and I don't remember the other one.

I'm pretty sure Grishny was the other one, based on some sort of archive or chat session that I only vaguely remember.

> It turns out, Julia_AM is, in her own way, as hardcore as The Mountain Man, but in a MacGyver sort of way. I don't know how many Bingo chips she wound up with, but throughout the day Saturday she was as studios at her table as Rivikah and Leen, and she kept coming up to me, saying things like, "Look, I made a picture of you out of wire," and "Look, I turned this styrofoam cup inside out," and "Look, I folded this Memory Game sheet into a book that opens four different ways," and everybody goggled, and I showered her with Bingo chips.

But no more than twelve bingo chips. Not much of a shower, if you ask me. ;-)

> Somewhere in there I did my 733t impressions, including one of Marlon Brando in A Streetcar Named Desire, a special request of Mousie's for RU3, except that I forgot to do impressions at all at that one, and Mousie wasn't there for this one, so next time I see her, if I remember, I will do an encore presentation of it for her. Anyway, everybody was dazzled at my impressions, because it's like the people I'm impersonating are really right there. It's uncanny, I tell you.

That it is.

> Mensekemeser was the big winner, winning the Official RinkWorks Soapdish and a bingo chip. He missed only two of the sixty six possible answers.

I thought there were sixty-nine possible answers, including MegaHal as the twenty-third person playing...

And that's all I came up with. Great memory you've got there, Sam.
