shadowy figures

Dear QotD?ers,

That was fun! Go ahead and look at yestesrday's comments to see the correct answer. Dr. Fandango was correct with the final question, but only because he built upon so many other good questions. Should we do this again some time?

A former boss went to Vegas this weekend and saw the Beatles themed Cirque du Soleil show. Because he's such a nice guy, he got me something from the gift store that I love in two ways: Novelty socks + The Beatles = Yellow Submarine socks. I'm wearing them today. I wore my yellow submarine t-shirt under my button down to match, though no-one but Justin knew.

Today's Question of the Day? is:
What is your favorite or best hand shadow puppet?

Love,
The Asker

I love the swan but have not mastered it.

Yes, we should do 20 questions again.

The one held on the stage behind the sofa that was written and directed by 4 year olds.

Twenty questions was uberfun!!

Except that the correct answer was peanut butter cookies!

Here is my analysis.

Few people that you know like to express their own thoughts and ideas.

However, we are all grossly intrigued by what YOU are thinking.

Maybe you should revamp the format into something along the lines of Jeopardy. You give us a hint, and we have to GUESS what the question of the day is!!

I am serious now. That would be tons of fun!!

Hey! My verification is chyrisi, which is almost liek Crystal Green!!

I used to LOVE the ones they would teach on Sesame Street. Pretty much everything on Sesame Street was awesome.

Jackie said...

20 Questions repeat? Yes.

Anne, that sounds a bit like Figure it Out!

And, sadly, I'm no good at shadow puppets. Maybe a bunny?

Mr. SHSSF said...

Yes we should!!!!!And for other reference we should play games like find the meaning to a word.

I have a fun name for 20 questions! 20 QotD!

I personally like the elephant. It is complicated yet very amusing.

Dear The Asker,
I despised 20 questions. I sat in the dark cold wet park for 6 hours and never received my money. Let alone any extra universal chocolate chip tallies! Seeing as I am a master of karate, tai chi, kung-fu, scrapped knees and toe cheese I am an expert on the art of puppeting. I like the batman signal. Who ever sits in front of the spotlight makes the puppet very well and holds it for such a long time!

Sincerly,
Dr. Fan-angry-o, the angry fan of 20Q

Mr.SHSSF said...

Dr. Fandango has had every name except Dr. Fan-Cheeri-o which is very unacceptable.And there was no money in the contest. Sorry. I was dissapointed too.

Dr. Fandango's old apprentice said...

Haha Dr Fandango. You did not get the money last night because I dressed up as you went to the park and go the money from The Asker before you even arrived.

Sincerly,
Dr. Fandango's old apprentice

PS.You shall never hear from me again.

Dear the Asker,
Ohh the drama of it all! what most of you dont realize is that Mr. slappy clown banaza head was actually my old apprentice until he turned on me and went down the path of the light side. oh yes he used to lie and cheat and posion pigeons in the park just like me. What he didnt realize is that i rigged the money with explosives. Whoops! my finger accidently hit the big red button! Is this the end of Mr. Monkey master banana face? Tune in next time! Duhn Duhn Duuuuuuh! Its great being evil.

Sincerly,
Dr. Fandango, holder of the button

Dr. Fandango's other apprentice said...

No, the other apprentice.

Sweetie pie said...

Mine is the finger and the swani have mastered both of those.

Yes I think we should do twenty ?s again.

Love,
ssssssssssssssssssssSweetie Pie

Kristen said...

Mom, oo, that's a good one.

Anne, those are always fully creative shows.
Jeopardy format? That sounds like a lot of work.

Sabrina, good call. Sesame street does make awesome ones.

Jackie, bunnies are good!

Mr. SuperHappySunshineSmiles, Justin showed me the elephant, it IS complicated, but really good.

Sweetie Pie, excellent variety! :]

Asker,

Jeopardy format as in you provide the answer, we have to guess the question. I would think this would be incredibly easy for you and immensely entertaining.

For instance, take your recent post about insect control. You would just post "Frogs and toads" and we would all have to supply the question for that answer. And then you get to tell us all what the question really was, assuming no one guessed it outright.

If you coose to dismiss this idea, I may have to take all the post-it notes and re-arrange them. And there is a phone number on Aggie stationary placed lovingly in one the books. Am I meant to call that number? There is no name, so it seems very secret agentish!
