Image Bonus: Show me a visual interpretation of the theme of this game. - Babushka dolls seemed to be the only obvious image to use here (though even that is technically not an accurate representation of the theme)... and most of you did that. Of the couple outside the box entries... I agree with Frank. mrkelley's unauthorized use of his likeness was perfect... slightly better than Vandal's panties. So mrk gets the IBB...
Dammit, I was sick last night and slept in this on the one morning you choose to be prompt with the scoring??? I don't know what hurts my heart the most, missing the perfect attendance or not getting to rank on Shania Orleans.
They're not babushka dolls, they're matryoshka dolls! (Says the Russian who found out from ancestry.com that she's not genetically Russian)....
Well, Liam Wainwright isn't a very Russian sounding name either, so my ignorance is excused. I would be lying if I didn't say the thought of holding off on the scoring just a bit longer due to your absence ran through my mind.... but ethics won out over sentimentality.

We joked about the guy on the adverts who had to trade in his lederhosen for a kilt or the woman who had NO IDEA she was one quarter Native American (if you are with your birth family, how do you not know what your parents are at least one quarter?) by saying that I'd find out that I'm 12% Ethiopian.
Surprise, surprise, not Ethiopian but 24% Scandinavian???? Yes, we all look so Nordic with our black hair and brown/green/gold eyes... The solution we came up with is that the VIkings were all around sailors, marauders and mercenaries, so that's for probably some of our Irish and maybe the Russian. There was a small % of Iberian that accounts for the Black Irish/Spanish Armada story....
Meanwhile, sentimental? Hahahahahahahahaha..... I've already copied down today's lyrics and put my notepaper in my rucksack for today's journeys.
