I would've thought oatmeal.




You Are Granola



You are creative and inventive.

You don't do much the ordinary or normal way.

You like to explore new ideas and lifestyles.

Something isn't for you just because other people do it.

Quick breakfast fixes are definitely not your style.

You're the type most likely to cook yourself an amazing homemade breakfast.

My home town is so small...

...the city limits signs are both on the same post!
...the City jail is called amoeba, because it only has one cell
...the McDonalds only has one Golden Arch
...the 7-11 is a 3 1/2 - 5 1/2
...the one-block-long Main Street dead ends in both directions
...the phone book has only one page
...there's nothing doing every minute
...the ZIP code was a fraction
...Second Street is in the next town over
...there's no place to go that you shouldn't
...a "Night on the Town" takes only 11 minutes
...the mayor had to annex property to eat a foot-long hot dog
...the New Year's baby was born in October

Perfect Trip



Not only nearly a perfect game (a "perfect" one wouldn't have allowed any points) but a perfect "trip".

When I was a kid, we had the Milles Bornes card game and me 'n my sisters and mom would play. The object of the game is to "travel" 1000 miles ('milles bornes" means "a thousand miles" in French) before one's opponents. It takes a "Go" card to start the trip, then mileage cards can be played. Your progress can be stopped by a "Stop" or an accident, out-of-gas or flat tire card and one must play a "remedy" card ("Go", repairs, gas, spare tire). If someone lays -for example- a flat tire on you and you have the "Puncture Proof" card, then you get extra points and they lose their turn, a "coup-fourré ". (which is French for "I kicked your butt". Actually, I think it's a fencing term)

I stumbled across a download for the game several years/computers ago and have installed it on each new computer as soon as I got online. I'm not for sure where one could find this same, exact game, but it should be easy enough to Google and find.

I'd be glad to send anyone the application (300kb) via email. It's really a blast to play.
