Ahh leave it to foodie night for some laughs. Last night we went to The Chatterbox Pub's new location in Linden Hills. Nine of us crammed into a corner of the restaurant.
Overall the food was mediocre...but that was not the focus of the night. We played an INTENSE game of Scattergories. There were many heated arguments/debates...I'll let you be the judge on some of these topics.
1) Who is a hero...Eragon or Aragon?
2) Would you purchase Envelopes as a souvinier?
3) Is an Eel black or silver?
4) Is "the Eel" a dance?
5) Is Egg Beaters a dairy product?
6) Part 1 - Is Jarring a word?
6) Part 2 - If yes, don't you mean canning?
6) Part 3 - Finally, is Jarring/Canning a chore or a hobby?
7) Are Jumper Cables considered a weapon?
8) Could Etheopia be considered a tropical location?
9) Is Elephant Man in the Guinness Book of World Records
Oh and by the way...thanks for giving us the point on Exercycle for a vehicle, which is actually a stationary bike.
See you next month!

1. Both. Eragon is a young dragon rider who leads a group of rebels, serving as their hero and savior.

Aragon* has something to do with a reigon in Spain.
AragoRn is the leader of men in the Lord of the Rings series, and is an all around badass, and thusly heroic.

2. Totally.
3. Probably both. But I'd argue this looks pretty black to me:

4. Yes, the eel is a dance - see youtube for several examples:

5. According to the USDA nutrition guide, Eggs are in the meat and alternative food groupings. This is sometimes confusing as eggs are almost always sold in stores in the dairy section. This is because previous classification of eggs was in fact dairy related but changed in April of 2005. Since beaters are just imitation eggs, this throws them into the same group.
(to be continued)
jar has several meanings. Jar can be used as a verb and a noun which can be used as a transitive verb.
Some examples...
1)to have a harshly unpleasant or perturbing effect on one's nerves, feelings, thoughts, etc.: The sound of the alarm jarred.
2) to vibrate audibly; rattle: The window jarred in the frame.
3) tr.v. jarred, jar·ring, jars
To put into a jar.
look, im not a scientist or nothing, but if my calculations are correct - and the eel *is* a dance and eggs *are not* a dairy product...
then Team Awesome (read: kevin, nikki and joe) would be last night's winners..
winner winner (mediocre chatterbox) chicken dinner!
