I had a productive day yesterday. I got most of the questions done and managed to put together an interesting music tape for this Thursday. This weeks guest round is Who am I? 5 clues to a famous person. Get the answer on the first clue 10 points are your reward, second clue 9 points and so on down to the fifth and last clue where 6 points are available. get the answer wrong and you get 5 points and you only get 1 chance. I did have a bit of a mental block when it came to picking a celebrity to research but I got there in the end and once I picked someone the questions were fairly easy. The picture round is also ready to be printed (IN COLOUR) however, there seems to be a problem with the ink cartridge I bought last Thursday, I shall be going into town in about half an hour to try and resolve the problem. Either way it will be ready by Thursday. Just a final note: The Picture Clues that we did last year. I am currently preparing another set of approximately 70 pictures and given that that we only use 2 clues per quiz they should last for about 8 months. They should be ready by the beginning of next month.

Joke Of The Day:

Two guys are talking over a beer, discussing various sex positions. The first guy says his favorite position is the "rodeo." The other guy asks what the position is, and how to do it? The first guy says, "You tell your wife to get on the bed on all fours and then do it doggy style. Once things start to get under way and she's really enjoying it, lean forward and whisper in her ear, 'Your sister likes this position, too...' Then try to hang on for 8 seconds."
