Good morning, and welcome to post #97.
Since we’re celebrating this week, and since the 2012 Summer Olympics are in full swing, I thought now would be a good time for us to play some games as well.
True, our games might not be on the same scale as the ones being played in London…but they’re pretty close! I’m proud to say that we have readers from over 30 different countries here at Words Become Superfluous. That sounds pretty “Olympian” to me!
On that note, I present:
Swedish Olympic Athlete … or Ikea Furniture?
Sadly, I can’t take credit for this fantastic idea of a game – I saw Ellen Degeneres feature it on her show and am totally stealing her thunder. But! While Ellen focused only on Sweden, we’re going to look at a wide range of the countries who are competing in this year’s Games – we dream big here at Words Become Superfluous, after all.
How to Play:
All you have to do is decide if each of the names listed below belong to an athlete… or some other object. Since I’m expanding on Ellen’s idea, they won’t all be Swedish athletes, and Swedish furniture won’t be your only object choice. You can fill out the form as many times as you like, and your latest entry will be considered your final one.
Good Luck! Don’t forget to leave your name (and blog if you have one) for your chance to be featured in a super-special shout out on Friday’s 100th-Post-a-Palooza Finale!
Hilarious! You are the maker of laughter here in my kitchen Amber!!
All right! I KNEW I’d be a success in the kitchen someday, lol!
So glad you enjoyed, my friend. Have a wonderful day!
I can hardly wait to see exactly who/what Hiyashi Chuka is !!!!
Teehee! You’ll find out on Friday!
This was so fun!!!
So glad you liked it! I certainly liked putting it together
Fun game Amb! I’ll wait til Friday to announce how much I enjoy a bit of Hiyachi Chuka in the morning or listening to M.J. Gentry’s sweet licks. If they turn out to be athletes that may sound a bit awkward.
I thought you’d approve! Seems right in your wheelhouse.
Awkward, perhaps. Hilarious? Most definitely. You crack me up on a regular basis Arto.
What a wonderful way to celebrate your 100th post! I love your blog! I like a girl who likes to have a little fun!
Thanks so much!
Super fun! I love Ellen D. and love a good game, so this is awesome! Hope I got at at least one right
Happy 97!
You did well! You’ll find out just how well on Friday
Ok…fingers crossed!
So fun – and what a great idea!
They’re all athletes, right? Right? I have no idea.
All will be revealed on Friday my friend! Thanks for playing!
