I don’t know why I didn’t think of pot. What. I do know. I was on a Southwestern roll. My mind was totally in the desert and I was off trying to find my animalspirit.

So that’s it? Now what happens? Nothing?

Now what happens is that once **Dolores Reborn** gets a chance, she’ll compile the results, score them, and let us know how we did.

And assuming that nobody just looked up the winning answers from the first time this feud ran, I wonder how such an entry would have done.

I see. Well, I usually suck at this sort of thing, as my mind tends to reach for the bizarre. I had to restrain myself from choosing Bernini’s David over the better known Michelangelo version, as I like the former more than the latter.

Yeah, that’s my excuse too…I was off in the desert trying to find \*\*Biggirl’s \*\*animal spirit.

Oh, you guys were looking for me? Sorry, but I was totally baked during this whole thread.

Waitadarnminit! This is a repeat? From where conch comes from? No fair! I’m only a sporadic Feuder and a latecomer to boot.

Well. . . anything to get the Feud going again.

P.S., how many who played knew this was a repeat?

Not me, until someone mentioned it. I though she through in conch just for fun.

I didn’t recognize it when I posted. But this feud reminded me of past feuds so I did a search and found the original version of this one. I think it’s the first feud Rebo posted and hopefully this thread will be the first of a new series.

Clearly, the strategy of this game is _not_ to answer with a movie you actually saw in the theater, but to answer with a movie you didn’t see in the theater but think will be the #1 answer. :smack:

Not in my case. I actually did see _Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon_ in a theater.

I really need to get my “Feuds on the Dope are Merkacentric” prejudice in check. Dopers ! Why you no Statue of Liberty ?! It says statue right in the name ! 🙂

Totally missed the boat on this one, but very pleased to see the Feud back in action. I’ll be happy to suggest some to Rebo to help keep it going.

Yeah, as a Brit I struggle with this as well. But, er, question 2 asked for a sculpture rather than a statue…

I remember being one of the few people to fail to put “conch” in the original feud. As a result I came fourth from last, so probably just as well I missed this one - though I wouldn’t have made that mistake again!
