And if you think it will be free of any errors -- you have another think coming!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There once was a Biblical Contest
On this Classics Board
When Typist Tillie made a big Gaffe
"Nero played by Glenn Ford"
That's the story that went around
But here's the real lowdown
Put the blame on Garth, folks
Put the blame on Garth
Matt told the Typist to write it down
His order caused Tillie to frown
So you can put the blame on Garth, folks
Put-the-blame -- on Garth!

And when you say Saturday I’m sure you mean Sunday.  |

Oh yeah, Mr. Wiseguy?
OK, you can wait it out until Sunday then.
But in the meantime ...
------------------------------------------------
Come Saturday morning
There'll be a Contest for your friends
A Quiz they'll have solved by the end of the day
Just all of your friends
The ones who believed

Oh c'mon -- quit, then.
To paraphrase Kasper Gutman:
"If you lose a job, you can always get another ... but there is only ONE Garth Game."

OK, OK -- maybe on Sunday after all (just put the check in the mail).

Egads -- what a choice to make!
Do I deep six Jervis, or jettison Marsha?
Even Solomon in all his wisdom never had to decide such a dilemma.

Saturday you say, well at last, and the staff is ready willing and able to follow all my commands (at the right price) Praying to all available Nordic Gods that it's not a word game. Over to the lounge: 1919 Charles Strite of Stillwater, Minnesota applied for a pop-up toaster patent. I have no idea if it worked or not, but toasts will be served ![]()  We'll try to copy those. 1886 Coca-Cola, invented by pharmacist John Styth Pemberton in 1885, was advertised for the first time in the Atlanta Daily on this day. Since it's a brand name I have to mention that there are other Cola's too.  Cuba Libre! non-alcoholic during game, after finish you can pour as much as you like, to drown sorrows of NTA's or while screaming Victory!, or just take it is easy. It's Coq au Vin Day ![]()  A small as possible Coq au Vin burger, with meat as the dish says, no cheating with chicken meat. (don't google coq too much, something not suitable for a family friendly site might appear) International Biscuits Day  There are lots of other variations from all over the world. If there is a game next Saturday, It's Denmark's National Day, so it will then be smørrebrød, smørrebrød, smørrebrød and Flæskesteg. ![]()  Regular drinks and cocktails will as always be available at the end station, with alcoholic content. For QM  If QM don't like this version, we'll serve a regular! "It's all in the Game" |

My fondness and respect for Marsha are too great. Make it a Saturday Game. Don’t worry about me. I’ll be alright.

Ha -- you thought I was worried about you, Jervis?
(OK, yes I was)

We love you Jervis
Oh yes we do
We don’t love anyone
As much as you! Well Cary Grant, Bette Davis ,Spencer Tracy, Kate Hepburn, run a close second

Brush up on Garth Games
Start searching them now
You may achieve fame
While the Players you will 'wow'
Though Marsha scored with 'Town Without Pity'
You can start with Kaye as 'Walter Mitty'
Should Aussie beat you to CITIZEN KANE
At least you know who said: "Get off my plane!"
If you missed Ben Kingsley playing 'Gandhi'
Try Jimmy Stewart's Mom -- Beulah Bondi
Brush up your Garth Games
And they'll all kowtow

My computer has a tendency to crash now..
What else could happen on a long weekend?
I hate long weekends--always did, even while working
