          Between that and elephant polo we've got a monopoly on all the good sports!
          Oh I don't think it's a coincidence that we're number one in boozing and elephant polo. Goodness knows how we got involved in that sport in the first place! Probably just a bunch of guys who stumbled upon a herd of pink elephants and decided to have a game of polo. I'm not knockin it, though! It was a great achievement.


          Tonight's Question

          I'm just going to take a wild guess and go for:

          c) $9.98

                          Hmmmmm since I don't remember 81 and have no clue what a cd cost I am going to go with facts I do know (ran across my senior book from HS the other day) gas cost $0.88 a gallon for regular when I was a senior in HS and its now bouncing around $2.89, I have memory of putting in 3 quarters into a drink machine to get a 20oz drink where now I need 5 (I also remember 16oz plastic bottles and those were cheaper...wonder why) and since the last CD I bought cost about $15 (though I think it was a little under than over...I don't remember to well I was to lost in the country section looking for it since it was a gift) I am going to guess that CD prices have gone up like everything else and since he was fighting to keep it down I will say D even though the one closer to $10 sounds like the answer and was my first thought...but I will stick with D...hmmm long answer for the morning...I ramble way to much
