  Well I can see that you take your trivial persuit as seriously as Simon takes Monopoly!!

  Monopoly is like war in our house.

  Yes Dave, you scared me too with the title ... I am glad that it was just a game. Canon beach area is beautiful. I spent many outings there with my family. Thanks for sharing this and tell Alan and Julie hi for me. Thanks. - Jim

  What's with all the negative vibes? Think positive people, not everything is as it seems. Alan and Julie will be just fine. Alan cried a little and Julie threw some kind of fruit plate at me but there wasn't any real damage.

  You guys automatically think the worse, smile a little and have some fun. I did. In most cases Alan's brain is enough but I know he needed Julie's help on all the science questions. The key to the game is the pre game preparation. I had one half glass of wine to Alan's three,then I brought up a subject that pissed Julie off and she started yelling at Alan. A couple more glasses of wine for Alan and the game was ready to start.

  I even let them be the cool blue pie holder while I took the ugly brown pie holder. They had two brains I only had one. They got questions like "What happens to water when it freezes?" My science question was "explain Steven Hawking's theory of black holes from his book A Brief History of Time." I was completely at a disadvantage. I also tried to be a good friend and opened up a new bottle of wine for them to drink as they contemplated the question, "Name the three colors of the American flag." They continually got all the easy questions why I got all the hard ones. It was completely fair, honest, trust me!

  PS: Sorry guys, but I'm laughing my ass off. This is almost as much fun as when I tried to hypnotize Alan last year and he kept cracking up. It's just feels good to finally laugh again, it's been a while.

  Oh thank God, .......... whewwwwwwwww,, I couldnt imagine someone beating them up.

  I keep reading so many bad things happening to people on here and it scared the crap out of me.

  I am in the "always terrified something bad is going to happen " class.

  Sounds like you all had a wonderful time. It is so good to hear about all of the ex jw's getting together all around the world, sounds like it is almost time for an international apostofest very soon.

  I'm hooking up with them again on Saturday, I think I'm going to print this thread out and show it to them.
  Anyone want to say hi?

  expatbrit,
  No, I didn't do that, My life may be a bit boring and somewhat unfulfilled but 8 years of reading TP cards would send me over the edge!

  Thi Chi,
  Sometimes it's good to cry buddy, let it all out, tell us about it. Take pictures, get a puppy, switch to boxers, what ever it takes pal. We're here for ya.

  Dutchie,
  Sorry, I know, I'm bad, I think I need a good spanking or something.

  Jan, Your next buddy!

  Outlaw,
  Your so damn easy, I'll bet you got a little lump in your throat didn't you ya old softy.

  Angharad,
  Nobody beats me at Trivial Pursuit, nobody. I almost lost once in a game of "strip" Trivial Pursuit but I got back my concentration and finally won. My grandma was really pissed.

  All the rest,
  Alan is really not all that smart. He spent the afternoon breaking rocks in half to see what was in the middle of them. I think he was quite disappointed to see that there wasn't any kind of prize inside. He's just a 50 year old kid who likes to collect old Watchtower books. I think he likes all the drawings of people getting destroyed at Armageddon. He's been playing with "You Know" for too long.

  *L* See what an edjumucashion does for you? Nothing..absolutely nothing! The WTBS must have been right all along if Alan and Julie couldn't even take down the troglodyte seven in Trivial Pursuit...As if one needed more evidence for reasons that Alan should be trounced, please see following picture...*L*

  Sincerely,

  Dang! You scared me too! I don't know you well enough to figure it could have been a joke.

  I'm glad you had a good time with Alan and Julie.
