Ten Favorite Words

Mom and Dad treated Paul and me to dinner tonight at Texas de Brazil (a.k.a. the meat palace). Mmm! Then Paul went back to the office with me and sat on the floor for an hour while I finished up some stuff. Oh, and I brought a couple of things home too, but I'll be darned if I'm going to stay up past my bedtime just to get ahead.

Frankly, Smacky summed all that up really well. Really really well. (Finally commented, but I'm not sure it's what I really wanted to say.) I'll save all that thinking for later. :)

Haven't done Ten for Tuesday in a while, and this is a fun one:

Ten Favorite Words

1. Perchance
2. Catharsis
3. Cajones
4. Blithe
5. Sentience
6. No.
7. Fnord
8. Signal:Noise (does that count as one? It should...)
9. Shenanigans
10. Editrix

Ooh, I've got a Risk game Friday (and Saturday?) night, but I've never played before. Tips??

My tip for playing Risk? Be on the lookout for shenanigans.

Risk tips: Stay hydrated. Take regular bathroom breaks. Don't get frustrated and flip the board over. Attempt to stay focused on the game. It's a LONG game, and at some point you'll concentrate on music, or the tv, or looking at the window, and while you're doing that, someone will take Australia.

Are you allowed to have your favorite words be in a different language?

Grr: Yes. I'm fairly certain a shenanigan is a shenanigan in any language.

Ahhh Risk. Try to conquer at least one territory a turn so you build up a nice collection of cards to trade in for massive army of doom and watch out for the Australian death fortress.
