Scoreboard of the Celebrities

Ian and I were playing a particularly suspense-filled board game called "Snail's Pace," and since there were only two of us and six "snail" pieces, I suggested we assign the other snails to our pets, who could then "play" by proxy, and Ian clearly really liked this idea.

Following the first game, he commenced a second, sports-casting the game in real-time, and finally produced a score-card at the end, which he outlined but then asked me to fill in with contestants' names.

The score-card is composed on the dull [logo-free], card-boardy side on a "Kleenex" top - you know, that piece of cardboard that you teare out along the perforated lines so that you can get to the actual tissues. The score-board reads as follows

Snail's Pace

1 Guinea Pigs

2 Golden [one of the puppies]

3 Ian + Daddy and Daniel [all tied for third]

4. Fuzzy [the rabbit]

5 Last Ruthie [the other puppy]
