As always, the deadline is theoretically Saturday at midnight Eastern.

Go!

[EricH]

Rich: "Hey Al, need some water for your flowers?"

[ATannahill]

So once the screw is on the wheel, your sixth hand presses X,Y, B, Stick up, X, don't forget that your second hand is still holding up 10 trackballs. That's how you, as an octopus, would get past level six.

[npoe]Forgive me if anything is wrong because I do not play video games.[npoe]

[DonRotolo]

"...and there was Lavery, in the water with that huge fish, splashing all over while the rest of us were just trying to keep the robot dry, and then the llama comes up and just bleats so loud that we all stopped to look, but by then the banana peel had fallen off so I says to Kathie I say, you know, with all that ice cream melting we are going to need more towels..."

[GaryVoshol]

Rich: "So a moonfish, it could be what, this big?"

Al, grins wickedly and thinks to himself, "Just wait buddy. Just wait. You're going to be so far behind us ..."

[Taylor]

Rich: Looks like Carol's got the camera out again. Let's strike the most uninteresting pose imaginable, and see if they still make a Caption Contest out of it.

Al: Sure. Anything to get away from that *%^$&@ opah thread.

[Anna B.]

"So what do YOU think the fish means?"

[bobwrit]

"What's that pool-Oh no......"

[Steve W]

So this kid comes up and says " Dude, your for sure over 25. It's righteous that you come by to get a feel of real competition. Like do you still own your TI40 or what?"

[Barry Bonzack]

They are actually posing for the cover of the new combat video game

Kressley vs. Ostrow vs. Marvel 2009



[I'll leak a bit of inside information: the final battle is between Andy Baker and Superman]

[Zach Purser]

What Al is thinking: What did this guy say his name was? I'm terrible with names. Mitch, Fitch? Why is his name tag on backwards??? What's the point of a name tag if no one can read it??? Ok, ok calm down. You can just call him dude until you get a peek at his name tag. Yeah, he'll never notice. Besides, if he keeps talking like this he'll never know I can't remember his name.

What Rich is thinking: Wow, this guy is a great listener!

[Wayne Doenges]

Rich: "So Al, what do you want to do for supper? I heard there's a new Sushi bar in town."
Al: "I'm sick and tired of hearing about fish! Moonfish, Opah, Shark. It's getting on my nerves."
Rich: OK. Maybe we could go to the steakhouse, I hear they have a new sandwich called the Andy Baker Exploding Bacon."
Al: "Sounds great."

[Taylor]

[I'll leak a bit of inside information: the final battle is between Andy Baker and Superman]

That's hardly a battle.

[Karibou]

Rich: "We've got almost all of the second hint figured out, the only thing we don't get is what 'get connected' means!"
Al: "Well, it OBVIOUSLY means that we're all going to be putting XBox360's on our robots and communicating with our alliance partners via XBox live. How don't you get that?"

[Travis Hoffman]

Rich: "WHERE'S MY "DORK (http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n305/BillfredsJunk/DSCN0055med.jpg)" STICKER? I can't function without my dork sticker! Al, have you seen my dork sticker? I am but an empty, soulless shell of a man without my dork sticker!"

<20 minutes later, when Rich finally shuts up>

Al: "We had to take your dork sticker away, because we had you officially upgraded to 'DWEEB'! [Hands Rich new Post-It Note] Congratulations!"

Rich: "Yayyy!" [applies sticker to forehead; skips away happily]



(Hmm, I believe I've dipped into this well before....)

[kramarczyk]

...And so I said, "OPAH!!!!", that's greek for, "I think I burned your food." This is so elemental, it must be a fire game. Then I walked away.

[JaneYoung]

Rich: Ok Al, now be honest with me. Do I look like the kind of guy who would encourage Lavery to mess with our heads?

Al: Honestly? ...

[Joe G.]

Excuse me sir, but do you happen to know the best way to the shop in Paramount on Colorado st.?

[Billfred]
