And the picture, since it's IRI this week:

Since I'll be in Indiana for IRI this weekend, the deadline is theoretically Saturday at midnight central time. Of course, since I have to drive over 600 miles on Sunday to get back home in time for work on Monday, an invocation of the Billfred Is Working Way Too Much Rule is certainly possible.

As is always the case the week of a competition, I'll accept entries in person (though you may want to write them down to make sure I remember them!)

Go!

[JaneYoung]

Andy Baker to Chris Fultz:

Chris, we all know that you do a lot of the behind-the-scenes preparation for IRI but man, sometimes we have a hard time keeping track of you. We put our heads together and came up with this vest. Anytime you start moving around out of the spotlight and in those dark shadows that dwell behind-the-scenes, we'll know exactly where you are and what you're doing.

Chris: Swell guys, just swell. Next thing you know, I'll have to kiss a pig.

[Mike Schroeder]

Baker: What do you mean JVN ate the whole bbq pig himself..... Who told him where it was...

[Wayne Doenges]

Chris: "So Andy, where are you going to eat tonight?"
Andy: "I thought I would go to Pizza Hut."
Chris: "What about Smokey Bones? I heard they have great BBQ pork."
Andy: "No I'm a little tired of pork."
Paul: "Don't you think we should let the crew reset the field?"

[EricH]

Copioli: So, I won the Kiss-the-Pig contest? *gulp*
Baker: Don't worry, it's clean!

[Taylor]

AB: OK, one more time to make sure I got this right. Is it rock tears paper, or is it paper covers rock?

[acdcfan259]

Baker: Alright, everyone try to make it look like we're doing something important.

[SlaminSwimster]

...And then the model on the left said zebra print was so in this year.

[DonRotolo]

AB: Chris, just what kind of battery do you use to power your super-vest?
CF: um, I dunno, but I think your shirt is leaking up onto your hat...


{{{Not part of entry: A request for a minor procedural change for this year. Billfred, when you post the scores in the new thread, can you also (or instead) post a hyperlink to the last post of the old thread? I find that I want to read the reasoning behind the scores every week, and have to resort to a convoluted method to do just that.}}}

Don

[Lions for First]

I mean I know we can get one million doughnuts on that rack if we try hard enough.

[Andy Baker]

No, no, no... when the kid came over to question the penalty, I didn't hit him... I strangled him like this. See?




<not an entry... no strangling at IRI, I promise... drivers, please come over to say hello>

[Travis Hoffman]

Yes, Chris, my mom did in fact make me wear this hard hat, lest these pernicious inflatable inner tubes bash my skull in. She even stenciled my name on the inside liner for me, just like she does my underwear.

[Dan Petrovic]

Andy Baker was performing a trick for the refs, Chris Fultz, and Paul Copioli. The call they were looking for had already been determined between Andy Baker and Chris Fultz through an elaborate series of facial expressions and hand gestures before everyone could come together to agree on the call.

<Not a part of entry> Why midnight central time? Indianapolis is in the eastern time zone. Are you staying in Chicago or something?</Not part of entry>

[GaryVoshol]

Andy: Chris, you'll have to turn down the lighting on your vest. It could interfere with the vision sensors. Even Paul here is being dazzled by your brilliance.

Paul: No, I didn't exactly say that. It was more like, if you can't dazzle them with your brilliance, then baffle them ...

Gary: OK, I'm outta here.

[Joe G.]

Andy: Guys...The pig escaped

Others: What do you want us to do? You're the Pig Farmer here.

[Billfred]

<Not a part of entry> Why midnight central time? Indianapolis is in the eastern time zone. Are you staying in Chicago or something?</Not part of entry>
[obviously not an entry]

Eh heh--I could've sworn that Indiana was central time. I'll stand by it, though. :o

[GaryVoshol]

[obviously not an entry]

<not an entry> Usta was, most of IN stayed on Standard time all year long. Indy was always in EST. </not an entry>

[Josh Fox]

Chris: Excuse me, but what's going on out here?
Andy: Well, Paul's scared because his microphone battery is dead and someone just ran to the store to buy a new one. We need a live... is it a live pig?
*Gary nods*
Andy: We need a live pig to take the curse off the rack and nobody seems to know how to call that potential interference.
*to the group*
Chris: Is that about right?
*they nod*
Andy: We're dealing with a lot here.
Chris: Okay, well, uh... we can pretend to be deliberating about the penalty until we get Paul a new battery, we'll call interference on Red and it won't affect the outcome of the match so no one will be upset, and we're in the middle of Indiana, so someone's bound to have a pig. Ok let's Rack n' Roll.

I retract my entry and bow to the excellence above.

AB

[KathieK]

Andy: Chris, Paul doesn't believe me! Doesn't the macarena go like this???
Chris: Um, gee, I'm not sure I've ever paid attention...
Paul: I say let's skip it and do the Cha Cha Slide instead!

[kramarczyk]

Andy: Chris, do you have any more breath mints, Paul wants one after kissing the pig.

Chris: Nope, the pig got the last one after kissing Paul.

[Rich Wong]

Andy: “The last game coming up!
I can’t wait to grab my favorite drink like this and kick up my sore feet.
Can’t wait…. Orange NEHI and MOON PIE!!!”

Chris, “Grape is better.”

Andy,” No sir, ORANGE is the best.”

Chris, “GRAPE is the best. We’ll ask Paul.”

Paul, “Peach always the best.”

Announcer, “And the referees are still arguing the last ruling…..”

[Karibou]

Ref: *slams hand on imaginary table* "Chris, how many times do I have to tell you: No matter how cool and awesome that light-up vest looks, you're not allowed to blind the crowd with it. "
Chris: "But...but...but...IT'S SHINY!"
Ref: "Yes, so I must resort to wearing a hat with a brim so that I can actually see what's happening on the field."

[Billfred]
