CSS Results for October 11
« on: October 11, 2006, 12:00:06 PM »
Today, only one person got to play CSS, and they didn't do so well. :-D

Obviously, we didn't actually play the game since a certain president was yapping giving a speech through the whole of the show.

Given the state of military spending, if one of the showcases had contained a Jeep, would he have bid $750,000?

I think the president attempted to use too much strategery in his bids...

No...too much strategery would have resulted in bids of $48,625 and $3.

In other words, The Price Is Right was pre-empted by The Prez Is Wrong?

Yup. And tomorrow morning Mr. Bush will have to deal with thousands of irate TPIR fans storming down Pennsylvania Ave. on their Hoverounds. :lol:

In chat today I actually said that he'd probably call the Department of Homeland Security on us because of something we have on our website.

George is surely not going to be in the playoffs with a Double Overbid like that!  8-)

Besides the fact that he didn't "whisper" to BuddyTom.  He PM'ed me later (for whatever reason) complaining he couldn't find the gray ear to "whisper," only spotting gray jellybeans, instead!  :-P

I'm actually surprised he didn't one-up his own Showcase bid this time!  :-D
