10. Bella and Swan are always number 1 at everything, unless they stop playing.
9. There seems to be always someone online in Starsky and Hutch.
8. Jojo almost never fails, to change a topic.
7. I never fail to respond to it.
6. There is always someone who is sure they had a case where evidence pointed to a person with a fake alibi. Yet it was not the killer.
5. Rule of thumb: Bryola gets all math questions right.
4. Most of us don't want the game to be easier. Yet most of us also post ideas to make them easier.
3. There are always people that want to join an agency when they are not subscribed. Usually the same people have not played more then a couple of games.
2. When racecat pops his head up. Something bad has happened.
1. It was not me, it was my brother.

Jstkdn, I am in two minds over how to get the Harry Potter book. Do I order it from Amazon or go to the store. I have booked the day off work. It will be torture to wait for the book to land on the doorstep but then if I go pick it up the queues will be mad. I have already started re-reading the other books even though I must know the story ff by heart.

Marylou, order it through amazon, and buy it. Whichever you get a hand at first. Give one away as a present.

Regarding Harry Potter, I just found out today that you can pre-order it through Barnes & Noble & then go pick it up at the midnight sale. I might do this instead. I pre-ordered through Amazon, but it gave me a delivery date of the 17th, and I just don't know if I can wait an extra 24 hours...

I'm with you on that one, Orb. Although Costco gets piles of them in at a very cheap price, if you can stand to wait for it until business hours the day of release (and live somewhere this is relevant, of course).
