Yeah DAD! Where is my pie!

I like the loser having to do something for the rest of us. Just maybe not during highly busy times of the year such as weddings. I have not been paying enough attention to college basketball this year. But maybe that is a good thing for my chances....

The act of not paying enough attention to basketball does not help your chances, believe me. Looks like I'll have to get my dart board out again.

Sam said...

Well, the most informed person ended up in last place last year, so I certainly don't think being informed will guarantee a victory

i will be glad to hand over my master knowledge of college bball for a large price...........

Samuel, How could you forget he apple desert I made when we were all together at Thanksgiving? I'm insulted. I think the loser should shovel my driveway the first time we receive 6 inches of snow next winter. The winner can stand outside and taunt the loser.

I just wanted a Key-lime pie but didn't get one. I think the loser should be the "beverage butler" for a day when we are all together. For example, "Ben, go get me some water, you loser of guessing NCAA upsets!"

Ben said...

I do remember dad's dessert. It was pretty tasty. Beverage butler isn't a bad idea. It's enough to make me not want to lose, which is a good measure of a punishment. The snow thing isn't that bad of an idea by my point of view. I'll just avoid being in MI in the winter for awhile. I think the winner should be allowed to humiliate Mattie in some way. I'll probably do that even if I don't win.

Mattie might choose not to taunt herself. That would be a crappy prize for her. I do like the idea of taunting the beverage butler. It would be most fun if it was Ben or Sam. If mom lost, it would be awkward and unfun to taunt her. hmmm...

Hey Kirk... I'll trade my master knowledge of photography for your master knowledge of basketball... And do you have a recipe for Key Lime Pie?

Kirk said...

Right now my specialty of food would be grilled foods involving bread and cheese, for payment i would take anything in euros or an 18-200mm lens compatible with a nikon.....
