Trivia Update, Weekly Winners

Me and the Grandkids

It's that time again !! Last week was one of the tightest battles for the top Weekly Points Winner over at Tom's Trivia Challenge but I'll get to that in a minute.

First I'd like to welcome our newest players:

1. TheIncredible Woody
2. TrailerParkBarbie
3. Jekyl
4. CindyH58

Thanks for playing and hope to see you all playing to win in the coming weeks !

Read on and find out what you can win!!

Last weeks race had the top 3 point getters separated by only 1 Point !!!

Maybe it's the Democratic National Convention that got him stirred up !!

A Big Congrats to: SHAUN with 111 Points, he's an unabashed Democrat coming to us from the Washington State and author of The Upper Left a blog where he talks about politics and shares his views on the coming Presidential Election.

Shaun is a husband, father, grandpa and Vietnam Vet who has been involved in the Political Process for a long time . Make sure you go and see his blog, even if you aren't a Democrat!! Congrats again to Shaun and The Upper Left.... read the rest of his Bio.

The Weekly Score Card :

Player	Total Points	Overall Rank	Last weeks Rank
1. Shaun	111	3	3
2. PG	110	2	2
3.Dawtch	109	1	1
4. Sneaky	98	14	18
5. TheVinylVillager	81	7	9

Looking at the scores you can see that Dawtch has a race on her hands and today marks the last day of August.... Will she hold off Shaun and PG for the top spot ? Good to see Sneaky, first time Top Fiver, in the mix at number 4 and The Vinyl Villager, last weeks winner, continues to make the cut.

Congrats to all and thanks for playing !!

Haven and the Chocolate Cake

It's a Beautiful Day

I did a little fix it job for someone today and since it was an easy fix, and a gorgeous day, I had some time to walk around the neighborhood with the trusty camera.

This bee was very busy !!

Flowers were everywhere !!

In Full Bloom !!



The ocean view was wonderful.



When I got in the car I saw this little guy sitting on the tool box,


The leaves are falling....
a sure sign that the summer is almost gone. Autumn, my favorite season in New England, is almost here. I love the warm days and the cool nights.

Have A Great Day

Trivia Update, Weekly Winners

Hello everyone !!

Happy Sunday !!

Another week has sped by and with the scores this week I HAD to add another stat for the weekly point winner's scoreboard

Last week I mentioned that for the 1st time the top 5 "Point Getters" were also the top 5 "Overall Players" I said:

"Usually we see someone in 11th or 12th making a run at it so I guess everyone under the top 5 players has to step up their game, Me Included !!"

Well come from behind was what our Weekly Winner has done ! All the way from 25th place and the new winner this week with 131 Points ......

FROM THE HILLS OF WEST VIRGINIA...It's.....

The Vinyl Villager !!

To stress what the Villager has done and what really makes him a contender to make a surprising finish for the month is that he has only played 14 out of 23 days for the month of August !! That's 5 fewer days than anyone in the top 20 players.

Nice Job !!

Please take time to follow the link above and visit his web site, also located in the Blogs I like Section in my sidebar.

Player	Total Points	Overall Rank	Last weeks Rank
1. TheVinylVillager	133	9	25
2. dawtch	105	1	2
3.Tom	88	5	9
4. Shaun	86	3	4
5. PG	81	2	1

Congrats the other 5 finishers !! Oh There's me !!

One thing I'd like to mention is there are several players we can't put a face to!! We have 30 Photos in Tom's Trivia Picture Series but several players are not there. I ask for a picture from your childhood, PG Excepted as his were lost, and I will post it along with the others already there !!

Send it to me via email, in my sidebar.

I will not share your email or any information other than your Blog, if you have one, or just the bio you send me along with the photo !!

Have a Great Week everyone

Trivia Update, Weekly Winners

A little behind but I'm still here!!

Finally have the weekly winners to announce. I have to say they are looking strangely familiar !!

Congrats goes out PG again !!

He lit up the scoring with 136 points for the week..Nice

Strangely enough the top 5 overall players in Tom's Trivia Challenge are also the Top 5 point getters for the week ending August 14, 2008

That is a first. Usually we see someone in 11th or 12th making a run at it so I guess everyone under the top 5 players has to step up their game, Me Included !!

Here are the top 5 Point Getters for the week:

Player	Total Points	Overall Rank
1. PG	136	1
2. dawtch	105	2
3. kathlock	97	4
4. Shaun	89	3
5. Operator9	82	5
