Greer Garson EV Keira knightly. Lr Elizabeth bennet Pride and predjudice only Keira was a nominee, Marsha Greer missed out on that one too bad -- she was nomed for CHIPS the year before, and nomed for the next FIVE consecutive years (winning for MINIVER in '42) Had she gotten a nom for PRIDE -- that would have been SEVEN consecutives -- an Oscar record!

There's nothing wrong with my feet ... it's my eyes that are the problem.

A rare alignment of a Garth Game with my days off. Great fun. It’s good to be back at the DDC. Love the new wood paneling in the billiard room. Thank you to Matt and all my fellow players.

I've been urging Jervis to just tell his ogre of a boss to take that job and shove it ---
and then hang out at GG ... which is much more rewarding.

EOWYN PROVES JULIET TO BE CORRECT -- THAT A PLAYER BY ANY OTHER NAME CAN STILL WIN A GARTH GAME !!!
**************************************************************************
The QM thanks the 13 Warriors who successfully stormed the GG Fortress: 
________________________________________________________________
A Green-Jacketed Champion -- EOWYN (aka ROMY) !!! 
The DDC Quartet -- MARSHA and SPIDER and JERVIS and AUSSIE
That Quality Trio -- JULIE and SOSTIE and BAT 
and our Participating Angels -- TELE and KIJII and DANA and RUFUS and MARIANNE 
*************************************************************************
We gather together on Saturday on a historic occasion -- Game #260 in the new regime
Hoping that the lucky 13 (or even more) can be in attendance

I didn’t realize until now that Eowyn was Romy. I kept thinking, “ Who is this first time player and how is she kicking everyone’s ass.”
You win, Eowyn! Nicely done!

That name is well-chosen -- formidable woman warrior from Lord of the Rings.

That name is well-chosen -- formidable woman warrior from Lord of the Rings. Matt, this is the first chance I've had to thank you for a super game! I spent too much time playing, as usual - my bad! - and I've been doing catch-up at work since then. I wanted to tell you of my name change but didn't have time. I hope it didn't cause you problems with updating, etc. Anyway, I think Eowyn's winning streak is about to come to and end soon. I hope to squeeze in some game time tomorrow, but Faramir and I have a busy weekend ahead of us, and then of course there's football!

Play whenever you are able, Romy.
And I did manage to recover fairly quickly from the shock of the name change.
Tide vs Tigers tomorrow.

Oh -- and isn't your anniversary with Faramir being celebrated this weekend?
Is Frodo handling the catering again?
