Pub Run

We participated in the 4th Annual Spring Sting Pub Run a couple of weeks ago. Yes, you are reading that correctly, we ran from bar to bar. The pub run was started to celebrate a friend of ours who was stung by a sting ray and fully recovered. Once she was able to move around again, they decided what better way to celebrate than to drink and run, just because we can.

Each leg of the run is about a mile with a one leg where you just have to hop across the square, as seen above.

And the winner is...

...MAU! Congratulations! Mau correctly guessed three out of the four secrets on her first try. Coming in a close second with two out of the four secrets is Ke. And now, for the answers that everyone has been waiting for. Disclaimer -Please remember that when you get to secret number 4, I did not create the clues and never would have been able to come up with the answer. I thought it would be fun though, to see if anyone could get it!
-------------------------------------------
SECRET 1: Lug Nut

SECRET 2: Fan

SECRET 3: Cookie

SECRET 4: Stephano DiMera (Days of Our Lives)
------------------------------------------
I am heading to St. Simon's Island in GA this weekend and I am determined to bring Mau back a prize that you could only find in Georgia. I hope to suceed and have it in the mail to her by next week. Congratulations again to our winner and a thank you to the only two people who played the game. Maybe we will have a better turn out next time.

Leigh Leigh's Brain Teasers - Day 3


You may find that each new clue not only knocks any of your original guesses out of play, but that you also become more confused. We found it much easier to make guesses when we only had a couple of secrets that had to support our logic. Let those gears turn!

SECRET 2: They can rust or wrinkle

SECRET 3: They are created by instructions and create instructions

Leigh Leigh's Brain Teasers - Day 1

I recently participated in this activity and found it very challenging and also a lot of fun. I want to pass the fun along to you and so I am introducing my first contest...Leigh Leigh's Brain Teasers!


Over the next 5 days you will receive one clue a day for each of the 4 secrets. By day 5 you will have a total of 5 clues for each of the 4 secrets. The person who guesses the most secrets correctly will win a prize. If there is a tie, the winner will be decided based on the time of submission. There is one secret that no one participating was able to figure out. Let's see if someone is able to figure out the correct answer.

CONTEST RULES:

1) You may guess twice (the final guess is included in the two) during the contest by sending me an email. This will keep the guesses private until the end of the contest. If you do not have my email address, let me know and I will get it to you.

2) Any time that you submit a guess you must guess all four of the secrets.

3) After your first guess (which may occur at any time during the contest), I will tell you how many you have correct, but not which ones are correct.

4) All final guesses must be submitted by 10pm on Tuesday, March 25, 2008.

Good luck and have fun!

CLUE SET 1

SECRET 1: May need a key

SECRET 2: Some push, some pull, some paint

SECRET 3: They can be circles, squares or strings

SECRET 4: Capable of changing people's minds

Find Your Spot


Are you interested in finding what places best fit what you love about life? If the answer is yes or if you would just like to take a fun quiz, then visit the Find Your Spot website (the blog title is linked). The quiz will discover what you look for most in a location by asking you questions about climate, culture, recreation, geography and much more. It will then generate your top 25 places to live. My top 10 were: 1) Albany, NY 2) Harrisburg, PA 3) Tallahassee, FL 4) Tacoma, WA 5) Ocala, FL 6) Chattanooga, TN 7) Gainesville, FL 8) Roanoke, VA 9) Ogden, UT and 10) Hattiesburg, MS. Once your list is generated you can read all about them and maybe find out why the site matched you with the location. I don't know if I was asked what place I would most want to live, if any of these would have popped into my head. Where are your top spots? Does it match the places where you have dreamed about living? You will be asked to register with your name and email address before you can view your locations. I have taken this quiz twice now (registering both times) and have not received SPAM or annoying emails from the site.
