Shucks, my electricity went out last night as I was trying to come up with what to gufu this week. For once it wasn't the phone company's fault, though. This week, in honor of the recap special which had no purpose except to help those who had to miss last week's program due to being at grandma's house, it's time for the Goback Gufu. If you have a favorite contendor from the past that didn't make the cut, here's your second chance, nominate it, and if one Goback is clearly prefered it will be added to the list of official contendors. That list now stands as follows:Gufu1, Boran dumps water.
Gufu2, Frank's big mouth.
Gufu3, Carl misses medical questions.
Gufu4, Silas' strategy proposal.
Gufu5, Silas sticks feet in mouth.
Gufu6, GXA gives itself strategic hotfoot.
Gufu7, Clarence goes for rock.
Gufu7 was determined rather than have a run-off this week so that all Gobacks would have an equal shot. And with that I am resubmitting for contention the gufu7 runnerup: Lex gets uber on peeps (he said it meant "ultimate" by the way), which I think will definitely cost him now that it's gotten to the jury stage. Anyway, have fun, gufu as often as you like, as hard as you want, just remember it's all in the spirit of good old bashitall fun!
SMILES ARE FREE.
"If all machines were to be annihilated at one moment, so that not a knife nor lever nor rag of clothing nor anything whatsoever were left to man but his bare body alone that he was born with, and if all knowledge of mechanical laws were taken from him so that he could make no more machines, and all machine-made food destroyed so that the race of man should be left as it were naked upon a desert island, we should become extinct in six weeks. A few miserable individuals might linger, but even these in a year or two would become worse than monkeys." (Samuel Butler, "Erewhon")
