Beyond Balderdash

In an attempt to get you to post more using the comment link below each post, we will be play a twist of Balderdash with everyone who reads the blog. The game will end sometime late this week, so post early and please, only one answer per person.

The WORD this week is: scrog

Balderdash rules (for those who’ve never played): “The main objective is to make up answers that will bluff other players, as well as for choosing the real and often unbelievable answer.

WORDS- What is the definition?
PEOPLE – What is the person known for?
INITIALS- What do they stand for?
MOVIES- What is this movie about?
DATES- What happend on this day?”

Video game party


To whom it may concern: my latest bright idea is to have a pyramid sceme like party that involves me having alot of people over to play video games and whilst this is going on a local representative of the video game industry will try to force all who attend to purchase one or more of his overpriced games untill he meets a preset quota where he will begin to earn some money for his meager exsitence. I feel this sort of atmosphere is conducive to an excellent party if all my friends show up and buy something then I will earn a free game(probably sonic the hedgehog or mario).

Get for V-Day?


What a great V-day! I have to tell everyone I have a great wife. I only gave Joy a spanking clean kitchen, and a full body massage. She gave me, a BLT sandwich, a pedicure, and a full game of me vs. her in TANKS. Wow it was amazing! We had such a fun time playing this stupid game from the 70’s that Yancy had posted on his site. So in honor of V-day, I’m posting on here as well. I told Joy that since we had so much fun yesterday we’ll have to celebrate D-day too.

Good to know


There is a fascinating site started by the guy who does Americas Most Wanted… it’s called familywatchdog.us. I got an email from Grandpa that talked about it but didn’t click on it, so today in interest I clicked on it and entered our address. To Joy’s shock and terror there is a sex offender within 100 ft of our house; across the street in the ghetto six plex. Somewhat disturbing but very good information to have, I highly reccomend putting your address in and checking it out. Plus the site doesn’t ask for your email or anything so there is no junk attached, just good info on your neighbors. The site gives a picture, name, address for each offender to help educate you on who to be cautious about. I was surprised how many were in southern Provo, and to compare, how few are around my parents house in NC. I found it very interesting, hope you do too.

Golf in Feb!?


Today Darin, Joy, and I went golfing at the Provo city golf course. Joy just drove the golf cart, which I think she enjoy more than she wants to admit. It was my first time playing golf in a long time, only my second time ever actually, and I found it very enjoyable, especially because we capped the strokes at 8 like in mini golf. But in all fairness I did manage to beat Darin on one hole which I’m very proud of, he took five strokes and I took four. Other than that he smoked me, but we (or at least I) had a very good time. Darin smashed his club into the ground only twice that I saw… and we only lost 7 or eight balls between the two of us, I think. The reason we went was b/c it was only $6 and the weather was very nice, but by the end of the nine holes we were freezing because the sun had started to go down. I now feel a passion to practive and spend money on this sport, mom and dad sell that hockey equipment so I can buy some golf clubs! As soon as I have a fathers day where I get useless golf game improvement things, I will truely be a Dad.

Personality Test


On the special edition of Lion King, there is a personality test like no other. You can find out which Lion King character you act like. I’m Nala… cough, um the gender has nothing to do with it! Joy, is just like Rafiki! Hmm, that seems a little flip flopped. Maybe next time it will get it right. For those of you who want to take this test, you can come to our house and use our DVD.
