Quizmaster: Tallest mountain in Africa?
Me: Kilimanjaro!
QM: No..I have to take the answer on the card ... It's MOUNT Kilimanjaro!
ME: Fair enough, eh? I could have meant Kilimanjaro underpants I suppose?
We lost the quiz by one point after the Quizmaster refused to accept "Budgie the Helicopter" as the answer to the children's book written by Sarah Ferguson. Because it's "Budgie the LITTLE Helicopter".
QM: So, how many murders are there in the film Se7en? It's six, because Sloth is still alive
Me: By that logic, Pride is a suicide...
QM: No...
Me: Gluttony is ASSISTED suicide...
The great crane robbery
An Alabama man who called a wrecker service asking to have a 70-ton crane pulled out of the woods is now charged with stealing the heavy machinery, sheriff's officials said. The owner of a towing service contacted the Chilton County Sheriff's Office last week, saying the man had called claiming someone gave him the crane, and he wanted it removed so he could sell it for scrap, the agency said in a statement. The wrecker service owner recalled moving the same crane a few years before and contacted its owner, who denied having given it away. The towing operator then called law enforcement. The man who wanted the crane moved fled before officers arrived, driving the rig into a ditch where it became stuck. The 26-year-old Clanton man was arrested a day later on a probation violation and first-degree theft charges.
