Looks like fun!

Why don't you e-mail it to yourself, though? [Confused]

though mixing gas and a race somehow seems like a bad idea.

I can picture someone racing off with the nozzle still in their tank.

I don't think one of those "ingore this" posts has ever gone without reply. [Smile]

Plus, we were told to "please, ignore this" It was more of a request than a demand. We were just being rude. [Razz]

This does sound like fun! I'm supposed to put together a photo scavenger hunt for my church's youth group, and I have never done it before. You have any ideas on that one? We are doing it at the county zoo. I sorta know what I want on the list for them to photograph, but still have some logistics to figure out (how to divide up groups, how to judge) etc.

Years ago, in an LDS institute class on dating & marriage, we had an assignment of doing a dating marathon. Basic premise - date as many different people as possible in an 18 hour period. Extra points for presentation and quality of dates, ie variety of dates. Sports, culture, science, etc.

I submitted mine in the form of a photographic essay. Dates involved the Focault pendulum, a dinosaur, a boa constrictor at the life sciences building, a proposal under a bell tower, blowing bubbles, making dessert, a charity date with a guy on crutches, and the list goes on. Well, I got a trophy (31 dates, by the way!) along with two sisters who did tag team dating.

So* that was my glorified way of saying that you could add points for creativity in presentation or execution, for example. Extra points for latin and common names. Extra points for quality of the pictures or humourous moments captured. Extra points for knowing what the animals eat. Extra points for... So* have a baseline for the basics and add for the extras.

Saying ignore this is like posting a giant neon sigh that says EVERYONE COME HERE. Kinda like how when I useed to play starcraft if a place said newbies only it usually atracted all the best players. Wonder what would happen if you put really good players only...

Hey! I used to live in Lake Elsinore. [Wink] But I didn't attend church much, and it was in the '80s. (Like 1987). Oh, well.

THIRTY-ONE DATES IN EIGHTEEN HOURS!?! [Eek!]

That's like 15-20 minutes a date! Less if any of them included substantial travel time.

No substantial travel time involved. [Big Grin]

I was visiting a friend at BYU, and she lined up most of the dates for me, but some of them spontaneously happened on the day itself as people asked or overheard about what was going on. Like the guy who took me to the life sciences building and wrapped a big huge boa around us - spontaneous. He was out with his girlfriend at the time he heard about this and his girlfriend told him to just do something with me and they'd meet up later.

It was a lot of fun, a huge ego boost, and exhausting, too. I was glad when it was over.

LDS... Latter Day Saints... But it reminds me - and God only knoweth why - of LSD.
