Soy aquatics, 3-1 wins, back to Opera, drunk authors, and knee surgery

High-scoring words of the night:

AQUATIC (247 points) - against Shelley R.-B. [two 3W]
SOY (110 points) - against Chantelle C. [5W used twice, 2W, hook off GROK for a plural]


The Canucks won 3-1 over the Avs tonight, and Cory Schneider is now 3-0-0; I'm sure Corey wouldn't really care if I told him that, but whatever! Since I'm tired of Google Chrome not remembering my cookies these days no matter what "solution" I use, it's back to Opera!


Facebook quiz taken from Kaitlin:

What drunk author are you? Leslie got Tennessee Williams. Drank away the fears of insanity, but not plastic caps. Choked to death on one at the age of 71.


Trivia fact for Friday, Nov. 5: How long after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery did runner Joan Benoit successfully compete in the 1984 U.S. Olympic trials for the women's marathon? Just 17 days. Benoit (now known as Joan Benoit Samuelson) was the top qualifier in her event, and went on to win gold at the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
