Seattle Quick results and a quick thought

[nagekinoki]

1. Ed - 7-1 greater spread (I think?)
2. Me - 7-1 lesser spread (I think?)

Nigel was 5-2 and was playing Chris when I left. Chris was 3-3 and I don't know his game 7 outcome.

Jan 4-2-1 AFAIK from round 7.

Also, Mina Le is super cool. She beat me and is super cheerful. She's like a Vietnamese Betsy.

I eked out Chris, and I believe Danny took down Jan in round 8. Tough crowd! looking difficult to break away for anyone.

I was just reading about Mina Le in The Last Word. She's a doctor!

I won my game against Mina, but it was close most of the way. Fearless (and if you saw my pictures of Vietnamese traffic...). Came up with CANERIES* which I came up with a workable definition for before I could talk myself into trying to zap it. (Her intended definition involved working with sugar cane, while mine involved making cane furniture.) And no, nobody thought (or maybe the material was gone by then) to stick a CHI on the front...
You and Ed meet in Round 9. Knock each other out.

on CANERIES*

Meaning to say, she played it and I failed to challenge.

maria and i were just talking about mina. i saw her thing on the last word and she's an ENT like maria wants to be. even probably the same subspecialty! can we get maria to play scrabble too?
