Top Five (Almost) No-Supplies-Necessary Travel/Party Games
The Radio Game - flip through radio stations; half a point to whoever can name an artist, half a point to whoever can name a song.
The Movie Game - “A” names a movie, “B” names an actor in that movie, “C” names another movie with that actor, and on and on. Whoever misses gets a letter, like in Horse.
The Number Game - Take turns counting - “A” says one, “B” says two, etc - but you must skip 7, 11, any multiples of these two numbers, and any number containing 7 or 11 (so 67 is out, for example). See how high you can get.
The Famous Person Game - “A” names a famous person; “B” must name another famous person whose first name begins with the first letter of “A”'s person’s last name. Continue on until someone gets stuck. (Can last FOREVER.)
The Other Number Game - Everyone closes his or her eyes (no driver participation in this one, unfortunately). Try to count as high as possible; anyone can call out a number, but if two people say the same number, start over. Harder than it sounds.
Top Five Non-Fancy Places To Eat (Near My Location)
Spaghetti Junction
top five individual performances by a Florida Gator football player in the last six years:
Alex Brown vs. Tennessee, September 1999. Five sacks, one forced fumble, one interception, two pass deflections.
Rex Grossman at LSU, October 2001. 22-32, 464 yards, five TD’s, one pick.
Channing Crowder at LSU, October 2003. No great stats, but led a dominating defense that allowed only 56 rushing yards and no offensive scores. And this took place eleven days after having arthroscopic surgery on his knee.
Taylor Jacobs vs. Maryland in the Orange Bowl, January 2002. Ten catches, 170 yards, two TD’s.
Keiwan Ratliff at Arkansas, October 2003. Three picks, three deflected passes, 1 pick returned for a touchdown.

In the interest of fairness, the top five Seminole players of the recent past:
1.Derrick Brooks
2.Warrick Dunn
3. Brad Johnson
4. Casey Weldon
5. Kevin Mancini (my cousin, who played with the majority of the above named players)
A Seminole fan interested in fairness? There’s something I haven’t seen since November.
I guess the FSU coaching staff disagreed with your notion that Brad Johnson was a better college player than Casey Weldon. I saw the 91 UF-FSU game on Sunshine the other day, Weldon took an absolute beating and still almost won it at the end. That was quite a game.
Good choices. I love the singles, but I’ve only heard snippets of the other songs online and I must get to Best Buy this weekend. The CDs might still be on sale for $8.99.
Good GOD, yes. YES! I was obsessed with these for about a month last year. Dang it, now I want one!

I’ve always thought that this was the first situation where neither the book nor movie was better, just that the movie is the book in a quickie-two-hour format. Never before have I seen such a faithful, appropriate, astounding transition from one medium to another.
Is it too much to ask for your recipes? Sounds delicious!
5> Thumb . Some experts don’t even consider it a finger, hence it’s last place designation.
4> Index . Too bossy. Could be a functional leader but suffers from a superiority complex that will always limit its effectiveness.
3> Pinky . Too small. Unable to acheive basic tasks without assistance. Only comes in handy when others are unavailable.
2> Ring . Perhaps a bit flaky at times, seems to have no real ambtion and needs leadership to get properly motivated, but is an individual and a dreamer.
1> Middle . What can you say. The most artistic, expressive of the fingers. Often acheives on it’s own what the other four fingers couldn’t do as a unit. The class of the finger universe.
But, I really must emphasis number 5. Let’s kill that schtuff here once and for all!
