My first try at this and I did not finish last! Thanks mostly to that sports car. Thanks for the game, **Dolores** and I agree: more, please.

I Costanza’d myself on the Sports Car. That was my first thought, then I went with motorcycle.

Pretty poor showing on my own feud. Thanks for scoring, Rebo.

Speaking of stats, lest anyone doubt that some people are just better at this than others:  
Over 16 feuds, my score is averaging 62% of the top points. Ugh!

I think there’s a strong history of people finishing poorly on their own feuds. Pretty sure I came in dead last in at least one of my own. Of course, a top half finish is pretty good for me, so maybe that’s not saying much.

I think that means we scored 373 as we matched each other’s scores. I’ll meet you at dawn 42fish to settle think like gentlemen.

As I recall, there was a tradition of people doing poorly in their own feuds.

Thanks, as always, to Rebo.

Thanks for the fued.

I can’t believe I did so poorly, I don’t think I’ve ever been in the bottom ten before.
