Darn, I was aiming to be ambidexerous, but I only get as far as ambiguous...

Anyhoo - don't want to mess you up so I'll stay in, with apologies in advance to my teammates

Re The Teams - Quizzes to Open Later Today

Team Elderberry? Does that mean we get to drink elderberry wine? (What the heck's an elderberry, anyway???)

It better not be a reflection on my age, or lack thereof, Miss Amy.

Nah. It was the only "e" fruit I could find. Have no idea what it tastes like though. Ask your husband to lick you and let us know what an elderberry tastes like.

Will being on Team Banana give me a banana-like figure? I'm already a pear, I'm ready to move on to another fruit.

Re The Teams - Quizzes to Open Later Today

We are having a tournament this week. The teams will take 5 quizzes. Their scores will be combined, and the winning team earns bragging rights for 3 months, a trophy in their postbits and the right to pick 5 smilies each that I have to add to our selection here at EA.

Amy
