I can’t believe there is a winner at this blotto game. It must be a visionary (in french, un voyant;somebody who can see the futur…) Everybody looked not to get a number right.

The prize is a chance to participate in an international tournament of blotto game!!! Ha,ha,ha…

That has got to be one of the best FEd put-downs ever! FEd, I salute you.

Interesting game this Blotto…although I know that I have only two right plus the two free spaces, I also know that others had a higher number of correct guesses.

So then why I am I still holding on to the bloody Blotto card. It’s pretty with all the X’s but I’m not going to redeem it for anything. It’s useless, yet I still carry it around like it has some value. I look at it and shake my head in disbelief. But I do not trash it. Is this Blotto dementia I ask?? It certainly does not keep me awake at night, I still eat well…so why I ask do I still have this Blotto chart??

Maybe once FEd announces the winner then I will part with it. But my fear is that it will continue to lurk in my possession. Rearing its ugly head from time to time and remind me what a fool I was for thinking Breathe/Time/Breathe (reprise) are one song. But actually that would have made it worse, I would have then gotten zero correct if I split that into three songs.

What the hell was I thinking, choosing CN with Nick Mason?? If I would have picked the Bowie rendition that would have been another correct pick.

Will I ever forget about this game?? Or has the damage been done?? O why, o why do I keep this silly piece of paper around….

Thanks, I feel better now….

[Did any body see the Princes Concert for Diana yesterday. Poor Roger Hogson 35 years of admiration blown away in 3 minutes.Posted by: Graham Knight]

Hi Graham..Ya I watched it.Roger’s set was a little painful and uncomfortable to watch.

I own his “Take The Long Way Home” DVD that he released, I think sometime last year, and he sounds incredible in it.I don’t know if I can enjoy it as much anymore as there obviously has to be some lip synching and major production corrections going on there.

But you know what?..it really doesn’t matter as he has brought me much joy over the years and I respect him no matter what.

However having said that, he really does need a band behind him to help cover up his once incredible but now not so well aged voice.
