Happy birthday...to me!! Somebody asked me why I was working on my birthday. I have celebrated birthdays with most of my regulars, over the years. These are my extended family, of course I'm going to celebrate with them! Thank you all for the cakes, brownies, cards and balloons!

Very competitive night! We had 4 teams going into the final round with just a 2 point differential, and a tie for first at the end! When all was said and done, it was Hefty Ham Delights taking 1st, with Our Combined IQ Is Ken's Age taking second. Turtles snuck into 3rd place, as they remembered the Animaniacs song for countries!

1st: Hefty Ham Delights

2nd: Our Combined IQ Is Ken's Age

3rd: Turtles

To start strong, or to finish strong...that is the question! Our Combined IQ Is... correctly doubled the first three rounds, giving them a commanding lead! Del Boca Vista Phase 2 was able to double the second round, and got the Who Am I round on the first clue to keep them in contention and win the free dessert. In round five, DBVP2 doubled, bringing them only 1 point behind OCIQI...! You would think OCIQI... would take notice and double round six, as they got all the answers correct! (spoiler alert...you would be wrong!) They chose not to double, and DBVP2 did, giving them a 9 point lead going into the final round. Del Boca Vista Phase 2 won the final round and the game, proving it is better to finish strong rather than starting strong!
