IWS #125 Results and Faberge Egg Expo 2005

[Karlifornia]

None of the Faberge Eggs survived the flight, so we're going to limit this to IWS #125 results:


1.What holiday has the worst "leaving town" traffic?

Thanksgiving-10
Christmas-4
Memorial Day-2
New Year's
4th Of July
New York

Hmm...I'm trying to remember what time of year New York Day falls on...

2.If O.J. were one of your relatives, and the world had run out of coal, what would you put in his stocking?

Gloves-10
Shit-2
Heisman Trophy
Noose
Real Killers
Candy
Rock
gun
trout

I combined bloody and black gloves, as I'm pretty sure everyone had the same gloves in mind.

3.If one of your neighbors had lost touch with the spirit of Christmas, what Christmas Carol would you sing to remind them of the magic of Christmas?

Jingle Bells-6
Deck The Halls-3
Silent Night-3
Joy To The World-2
White Christmas-2
We Wish You A Merry Christmas
O, Come All Ye Faithful
Merry Christmas

Pretty much a crapshoot or a question which basically boiled down to "What is your favorite Christmas Carol?"

4.Tickle Me Elmo was a humdinger of a fad. If you were one of the Elmo executives, putting out ____ me Elmo would be the next cash cow for the company (fill in the blank)

Hug-3
Kill-2
Fuck
Fondle
Shave
throw
snuggle
diddle
blow
bite
sing with
tickle
punch
buy
molest
kick

Ok, this question just got out of hand. I wanted to avoid having 10 winners like IWS #100, and it looks like I succeeded.

5.What is the best beverage to keep warm with on a cold winter night?

Hot cocoa-10
Scotch/Whiskey-4
Coffee-2
brandy
hot cider
egg nog

I combined scotch and whiskey....

6.What is the worst pet a parent could give a child for Christmas?

Snake-4
trout-2
dog-2
ray
skunk
great cat
hamster
cat
rock
rabbit
elephant
bird
monkey
alligator

[albionmoonlight]

0%.

Awesome.

[General Mike]

Nice.

[Raiders Army]

How could fuck not be the overwhelming answer to #4???

[timmae]

damn it... What holiday... not what city... what the heck was I thinking. that's what I get for starting this darn quiz before i've had my morning coffee.

Either that or my reading skills are eroding..

[lighthousekeeper]

woohoo! first FOF Yahoo fantasy baseball, then this. it's time for me to head off for vegas.

I actually almost made the same mistake.

[wbatl1]

0%- but I tied with quicksand...well actually he beat me but we were both 0% and bad

[MIJB#19]

0% and I still beat QuikSand!?

By the way, a winner with a 1-multiplier, that's got to be a first time occurance. It's got to be...

[colt45]

I can't tell you all how big this is for me. And I'll have you all know that had I thought I'd be able to spell cocoa correctly, this bad boy would have been mine! Is 2006 the 'Year of Colt45'? Well, guys, it just very well might be!

I do not believe I have ever been so excited to be 3.3% correct. I believe the old college roommates might be getting a call about this one...

[DanGarion]

WTF is a "great cat"?

[Passacaglia]

doh, I missed this one. I probably would have lost, anyway.

Happy New York Day, everybody!

[st.cronin]

WTF is a "great cat"?

lion, puma, ocelot, jaguar, etc.

[MIJB#19]

woohoo! first FOF Yahoo fantasy baseball, then this. it's time for me to head off for vegas.
When you get home, could you please start IWS#126? K? Tx.

[kingfc22]

Ahem....

[LoneStarGirl]

Still in Vegas?

[MIJB#19]

Time to pass this on to Desnudo and/or Colt45?

[Karlifornia]

Alright. Between Desnudo and colt45, the first to volunteer gets to do it, unless they want to do the ol' 3 and 3.

[lighthousekeeper]

sorry - i didn't realize that i was supposed to do the next one. this was only the 2nd IWS that I played.

i'll have one posted by tonight.

WTF is a "great cat"?
Yeh I was wondering about this too. I understand now what it means, I just find it funny.
