4) This Question Intentionally Left Blank

We weren't consulted about this question being left blank.

We didn't receive notification before it was left blank.

The timing is suspicious as it may have been left blank to distract from other questions.

We demand a briefing on why it was left blank.

A blank question requires a well defined goal and exit strategy.

We must consider possible retaliation for the question having been left blank.

We'll have to see what Rose McGowan says about this before we can go any further.

We play Big Yahtzee. Amanda would play every night if I was willing. As it is, it's usually a couple nights a week in the summer.

Big Yahtzee rules (we made this up)

You play all 5 columns at once. Strategy develops as to which column to score your rolls in. We also start with 5 bonus rolls that you can use at any time. If you get a Yahtzee with your bonus roll, you earn an extra (keep the roll). Additional bonus rolls are earned for : first to complete a column in the top, in the bottom sections. Also first row in each section. And the pity bonus for first to fill the chance score row.

And.... We use 4 red dice and one black. The 2s are wild on red dice, 1 is wild on black. Scores get high. Plan on filling in the extra Yahtzee boxes at the bottom.

I like to modify games.

It's kinda lame, but I LOVE a mug my parents gave me when they visited a city in Germany where I had studied as a youth. Starbucks had a whole mug series they did of tourist cities around the world and this mug is one of those. A nice big comfortable mug, with the name of the German city and a drawing of one of the historic buildings. It's well done, and brings me joy every time I use it. I'm disappointed when it is dirty and I have to use another mug.
