Scattergories

I found this while looking for a knitting pattern. I love to play Scattergories, unless the letter rolled is N. That one is nearly impossible, and I usually re-roll to get an easier one. With this meme, each category must be answered using the first letter of your name--in my case, R.

1. Famous Singer/Band: Rosemary Clooney

2. 4 letter word: Rain

3. Street: Rodeo Drive

4. Color: Rose Red (2 points)

5. Gifts/Presents: Ring

6. Vehicle: Rolls Royce (2 points)

7. Things in a Souvenir Shop: Rally flag

8. Boy Name: Robert

9. Girl Name: Regina

10. Movie Title: River Runs Through It

11. Drink: Rob Roy (2 points)

12. Occupation: Roto-Rooter (2 points again)

13. Celebrity: Ronald Reagan (again with the points)

14. Magazine: Real Simple

15. U.S. City: Reddington

16. Pro Sports Teams: Reds

18. Reason for Being Late for Work: Ran into traffic

19. Something You Throw Away: Rotten Radishes (2 points)

20. Things You Shout: Robber!

21. Cartoon Character: Rocky the Squirrel

Cool, Robyn.
I've not heard of "scategories", but we play a similar game in the office, called - somewhat prosaically - "girl's name / boy's name" and our categories are somewhat more bizarre and certainly ruder. Hee hee.

I'll fill this in myself and I might put some of the office categories in mine.

Love it! I would have a tough time playing against you, I think.

I might do this one, but G is rough.

Fun!!! If I hadn't posted three things today already, I'd add this one too. I'll save it for tomorrow. :)

This brought all sorts of strange pictures into my mind: Ronald Reagan roto rootering, rocky the squirrel running into traffic, and a rose red rolls royce.

Try saying THAT three times, Scout.

Cindy Loo Who In October

What is it with people and Cindy Loo Who? Of my last one hundred blog hits, forty have been direct visits from regular readers, and fifteen have been as a result of people searching for "Cindy Loo Who," the little pixie from Seuss's How The Grinch Stole Christmas . A couple of years ago, I posted an image of the original Seuss illustration as compared to the TV cartoon image, and for some reason, that post is bringing in the crowds, relatively. Maybe it's the weather. It isn't even November yet, and already we've had frost and have had to dust off our winter coats. When it gets cold like this, I start to think about Christmasy things like listening to Nat King Cole and decorating the tree. It's ironic because I am offended when retailers start pushing holiday stuff early, but I don't mind my own private celebrations.

The Ultimate Storyteller—in Life AND in Death

I wrote about The Autobiography of Mark Twain in yesterday's edition of Small Town Newspaper. You can read it here , if you want. This is the photograph I had in mind while I read Clemens' dictations. He really was a masterful storyteller, even when rambling on about the poorly designed door knobs in Florence or in describing the Countess Massiglia, who he described as a "pestiferous character." About her, he said, “She is excitable, malicious, malignant, vengeful, unforgiving, selfish, stingy, avaricious, coarse, vulgar, profane, obscene, a furious blusterer on the outside and at heart a coward.” And I laughed out loud.
