Bummer. Still a loser. Can I at least know what the answer was (so I know how much to complain about;-))? Thanks

SWHTM - She who handles the money

I thought it was SWMBO not SWHTM?????!!!!!!

 

[Skye]

SWHTM - She who handles the money

That wasn't in the paragraph. It was SWMBO, who is 'She Who Must Be Obeyed.'


Hmm... apparently having a number in your name upps your odds, lol

 

[me2cyclops]

SWHTM - She who handles the money ????? where was THAT.

 

[Rudy Vey]

I didn't see this one: SWHTM
I saw: SWMBO

 

[dntrost]

IT WAS! Sorry typo on the answer!

 

[Daniel]

Dang I even missed that one by one. this stuff makes me dizzy though so I'm a little surprised it was just one.

oops just saw the correction above, I'm a winner again and got em all right. think I'm 8 for 10 right now. so where are the championships being held?

 

[dntrost]

The answer is now corrected and was judged based on answers above 99 responses 97 got it right! Can I quit this job or do I have to be fired?

 

[mrcook4570]

Can I quit this job or do I have to be fired?

I believe your job is like the papacy - only one way out :wink:

 

[Pen Maker]

Sorry getting the hang of all of Randy's formatting!

nah, nah, na, nah, nah...... He said the R word !

 

[mrcook4570]

Hmm... apparently having a number in your name upps your odds, lol

Hasn't helped me yet :frown:

 

[ed4copies]

WOW, WINNERS in EARLY afternoon!!!

May get prizes awarded - let's see those EMAILS, GUYS!!!!

 

[Pen Maker]

Yeah, Congratulations to today's WINNAH's, the first HONEST WINNAH's since we threw out the Magical "Electronical HAT" and STOMPED on it then picked up the pieces and CAST them in a BLANK we fondly refer to as SEE YA SUCKA !

 

[bobskio2003]

I think we need a new random number generator. It keeps coming up with the same people. Congrats on win number two Ron (leave some for the rest of us) and win number one for Will (although he's probably lucky enough to have won twice as well). Darn, I guess its time to change my underwear and see if the next pair is lucky.

 

[Pen Maker]

change my underwear and see if the next pair is lucky.

Heaven Forbid !!!

 

[bobskio2003]

I know. We're only two months into the year and that package of three new ones won't last the whole year this way.

 

[rej19]

Yahooooo number twooooo. Congrats to Will also. Thanks to everyone involved from the donators to the volunteers helping!

 

[jlg2x]

Hmm... apparently having a number in your name upps your odds, lol

Hasn't helped me either. I don't think the random number gererator is being very random!:frown:

 

[maxwell_smart007]

If having a number helps, why haven't I won yet?

 

[Pen Maker]

if you'd have picked 99, then you would have.

 

[maxwell_smart007]

I didn't pick 99 - she picked me! :wink: :biggrin:

 

[Pen Maker]

OUCH

 

[dntrost]

NOPE IT AINT RANDOM! RANDYgave me a list of folks who paid him off that I still need to take care of then I can start to pick my friends....

Oh wait a minute I aint got no friends!


So I guess just keep those payments coming but switch from Randy's email to mine and watch you win!:biggrin::biggrin:

 

[ed4copies]

I'll have NO part in skulduggery!!!

No more prizes will be shipped until I receive MY PERCENTAGE (75%)

Or until I get the next e-mail --- still waiting for Will (but he may have a "real job" that doesn't allow him to goof off all day, like us!!

 

[Pen Maker]

and now for best comeback line in a dramatic Trivia Contest the award goes to:

I didn't pick 99 - she picked me! :wink: :biggrin:

Just so's ya know's Dwight

Oh wait a minute I aint got no friends!

I overheard Andy saying in another thread what a cool TriviaMeister you were. Such web presence, finess and the whole shebang! Not like that first guy Richard. Hey and he's got a number in his moniker to boot. Yep I overheard him and GaryMadore shooting the breeze. I took it they gotcha back bro!

 

[Pen Maker]

Sorry for the delay ed. Thanks for the donation to trivia. Congrats to all the winners this month. Great site. Yes, my "real job" gets in the way of doing what I like to do sometimes.
