End of Games!

 Is it a foregone conclusion? Going in to the final two games, the stars have all come out to cheer on their domino heroes. Here is Captain Turtle posing with the favorite, Gazing Ball.

With some good back and forth, the double-One round looks even - for a bit. Then phONEruns out of moves and collects too many points. He finishes with another big load: 61 points!

It's not looking good, and is all but over going to the last round. The Double O! The players put their racks together, and the options look pretty good. phONEstarts the community train early, because his train is not oh-so-long. Before long both players run out of tiles, and have too many unplayable doubles... calamity ensues, but...

Gazing Ball prevails! Final score 123 to 262.

This was a hard fought match, and the globe was in it the whole race. She started the games from behind, but then caught up and never looked back, going out first five times down the back stretch!

Congratulations Gazing Ball!

Round Two, the Elevens!

Whazzat? Sloth Jr wins AGAIN!?!

Mr. Gingerbread Man comes in at 18 points, 'Nanner at 19, phONE has 30, GazingBall has 31, and Battery is holding steady in last with 55.

The semi-annual Mexican Train Tournament!

Get ready for some heated play, the DoD won't hold any punches!

Domino of Dominance, that is! So, in striking form the DoD starts the games out with a win.

Is this a portent of The Future? Watch, as Sloth keeps a keen eye on the scores.

Round 2 turns out some lower scores, as Porch flips over his final tile first. Sloth takes a bath with 30, but he's still in the hunt. The DoD retains the lead, though, with a minimal score of 13.

Sloth thinks this is thirsty work, he trails by 17 points. TV tops out with a whopping 60!

Tonight I met my (description) (family member)-in-law at the local la-di-da (nationality) restaurant where we sat in (geometric form)s and smoked (a fruit) into the wee hours. Off in a corner there were (an unusual number) (adjective) ladies sipping their (drink) and swapping (plural noun) about their (adjective) husbands. I wondered aloud what their (made up curse word) lives were like and how (adjective) it would be to have it as (adjective) as they seemed to. Maybe a bit too loudly I said “(made up curse word) (made up curse word) (made up curse word)'s.”

One of the ladies stood up with (food) in her hair and a (tool) in her hand. She was missing her (body part) but was dressed like a (occupation) with a heart condition. She walked over to our (furniture piece) and slammed her (body part) onto my plate of (food) and smooshed it around. Then she rubbed her (body part) and said (made up curse word) you, you (made up curse word). (Verb) up, or me and (woman's name) over there will (verb) on your (body part) and drag it and your (adjective) (noun) down (street name) until (plural noun) squish your (body part)s into (food) and (condiment).

Needless to say, I (verb past tense) up, and finished eating my (food). But in the (room) the head (occupation) spilled his (noun) noisily. My dining partner said “(made up curse word) this (adverb) (retail establishment).” Then we threw our (plural noun) into the (something spectacular) and left the restaurant. I was (adverb) and my (clothing) was (adverb) and I said “(made up curse word) and tiddly winks.”

We (verb past tense) down (street name) and suddenly were accosted by (animals) being ridden by monkeys carrying (plural noun). Their banner read 'I heart (famous sports figure)'. A monkey with a (weapon) charged me and howled (exclamatory remark) while (dance step)ing and sticking a (body part) into its (body part). We narrowly escaped into a (noun). I said (made up curse word).

Too late, (super hero) and (breakfast cereal) fell from the sky and (verb past tense) us into the (building) for (number) days. It wasn't a bad night, but I'd rather have (food) and (type of entertainment).

If you come up with something particularly funny interesting or life changing., i'd love to hear about it. Yeah...i'm just that bored.
