Well mysterydude2001 gave me a great idea. Anyone who posts a comment, (given that I know the person at least a little bit), I will post a memory of. As my first victim, I will use mysterydude2001.
I remember back in 2004 over Spring Break, whydoyoulook, goblnqueen13, mysterydude2001, and goblnqueen13′s parents went to a Trivia Bowl in Walcott, Iowa. It was an event in which teams are asked a series of questions related to different subjects. The top couple of teams in the end are awarded a cash prize to split up amongst the team members.
Well.
So we are doing our Trivia Bowl questions, and there occasionally is a that the group feels pretty confident on. However, in a few circumstances, mysterydude2001 insists that we are wrong. He is a very persuasive person, so we pay heed to his pleas. We got several questions, which were originally right, wrong due to him. Not that we were bitter or anything, in fact it was really kind of funny. The first of these questions was about college basketball. I think the answer was originally “UCLA” but he INSISTED that the answer was Duke. Yeah, it was wrong.
By the end of the evening, this had happend several times, thus resulting in his new nickname “The 29th Duke of Penzoil.” We just put all his wrong answers into one long nickname, but now I, at least, just refer to him as “The Duke.”
When I was back in Wyoming afterwards, I got him a Burger King crown, put a piece of duct tape on the front, and wrote “The Duke” with a Sharpie. I wonder if he still has it.
Anyways, it was a great time. I wish it could happen again, but seeing as goblnqueen13 and I are no longer together, I don’t see it happening. Oh well. I still have The Duke, don’t I?
All hail the 29th Duke of Penzoil!

How sweet… that was a very touching story
I love that story. Tell it again!
Classic.
Here goes…
1. Reply with your name and I will write something about you. JAKE, YOU HAVE A VERY STRONG MIND. WHEN I SAY THIS, NOT ONLY DO I MEAN THAT YOU ARE PENSIVE AND INTELLIGENT, BUT YOUR SKULL STILL REMAINS INTACT AFTER ALL OF THOSE TIMES I HIT YOU IN “AMBIVALENCE”.
2. I will then tell what song(s) remind me of you. “THE PINK PANTHER” I REMEMBER WHEN WE PLAYED THAT IT JAZZ BAND AND I COULD HERE YOU PRACTICING IN THE STAIRWELL WHILE WE WERE IN CLASS. IT WAS SO AWESOME.
3. Next, I will tell you who you remind me of, celebrity/animated or otherwise. HMMM I’M BAD AT THIS ONE. I GUESS WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR BIG BEARD YOU KIND OF REMIND ME OF A MUCH YOUNGER AND SKINNIER VERSION OF SANTA CLAUS. YOU HAVE THAT LITTLE TWINKLE IN YOUR EYE.
4. Last, I will try to name a single word that best describes you. PERSEPTIVE
5. Follow suit and send this to others. (or post on YOUR xanga)
Well, thank you, been a while since I’ve even seen you….Cheyanne’s graduation maybe…guess that’s a pretty good observation of me…I’m flattered
