"And now, a Channel 6 editorial reply to....umm...myself."

Since the quirky servers just dumped my original list
of questions on me, after I got all the replies, and since
a certain unnamed listmember has been howling quietly
for acknowledgment, I am replying to my own mail.

] Finally, a list of questions the whole family can enjoy...

And I hope you did. And now, recognition for those
list members who bothered to answer those tough questions
about life, the universe, and what's for dinner.

] 1) to 5), the karma questions.

You've probably all been playing either longer or more
than I have, so I appreciate the volumes of info you all
gave me. Pat yourself on the back (or someone else, if
you can reach 'em. Everyone needs a pat on the back
sometimes).

] 6) Mmm....foooood..... What should I have for dinner
] tonight? I was thinking of a Stroganoff type meal, with
] broccoli, but I'm quite a bad cook.

I ended up having hot dogs. You see, I had bought three
pounds of ground beef to use in three different meals. I
neglected to seperate the beef, however, and froze it as
one large lump. Therefore, when it came time to make
Stroganoff, I had two choices. Go out and buy a hacksaw
to cut a third of the beef off, or cook it all. I had hot dogs.
They were quite bad.
Just thought you all should know.

] 8) Canada. Without looking at reference material, I.E.
] anything at all, who's the current leader of our country,
] and what's his title (don't cheat...this is a public awareness
] poll...and no, I haven't a clue who the Australian Prime
] Minister is)?

First, a hearty congratulations to Kama, who knew both
answers, and even spelled one right (the other is french,
Jean Chretien :) You can retrieve your prize, a brand new
2004 Ford Beetle, at the parking lot on the corner of
Charlotte and Duke, Saint John, NB, Canada.
And congratulations also to Dvixen, who nailed his
description to a tee (funny accent, droopy face). You get
no prize, but I'll mention your name again, a couple of
times. Dvixen. Dvixen, Dvixen, Dvixen!
And a glass of American beer to those who said they
didn't care :)

] 9) Dice. How many dice do you usually take to a gaming
] session? And do you take those multi-sided AD&D dice,
] even though you know you won't need them?

I've averaged the amount of dice everyone said that
they brings, and came up with a number that shouldn't
exist in our reality. Geez...how do I make do with just
21? Am I missing something important? Should I be
carting around a Brinks truck full to the brim with
dotted cubes?

] 10) If you were covered in bugs, what kind of vegetable
] would you be?

Unfortunately, you all answered incorrectly. The
correct answer was: "Tuesday." You'll all have to stay
after class and clean the erasers.

] The Tragically Hip
] (Bonus question: Heard of these guys?)

Anyone who noticed this question gets thirty-
thousand points, no matter what you answered.


Anyway, thanks for humouring me, and answering
my questions about karma, ghouls, etc. And that, I
believe, is that.

Scott
