It is still Saturday. Is it too late to enter? If not I'd like to.

mrpaseo · January 13, 2002 3:58AM

My wife and I decided to do this one like we used to find out who would be "it" for hide and go seek.

A few of the veriations will be:

Superman-Superman, superman, fly right out

One Potato, two Potato-One Potato, Two Potato, three potato, four, five potato, six potato, seven potato More

Eanie Meanie-Eanie Meanie Miny Moe, Catch a tiger by his toe, if he hollers let him go, out goes Y-O-U

Those are the three that we will use in verious order, this way, no one will know till ethe last collector is chosen.

So everyone put in your potatos and lets go (Contrary to the old way, everyone only get's one potato, not two)

Now, let's see who the first one out of the drawing is!

Good luck everyone.
Ray and Malaena

Superman:

14, you know what to do, MOVE OUT!

Eanie Meanie:

5, your time has come...

Superman:

17, your gone!

Potato:

23, you know the drill, move it along.

Superman:

13, your number has arrived, now please walk quietly to the door and dont let it hit you in the rump on the way out...lol.

Eanie Meanie:

15, your done.

OK, we are down to the last four numbers, left is: 1, 6, 11 and 27. the next count is starting with 27.

Superman:

and 27 goes...

Last three...

Eanie Meanie:

11, your done.

Were down to the last two...Good luck to numbers 1 and 6.

It comes down to a coin toss, first I will toss up and figure out who is heads, I will flip the coin 6 times, if I get more than three heads, then heads will go to 6, if I get less than three heads heads will go to number 1...here we go.

Toss #1: Heads
Toss #2: Tails
Toss #3: Heads
Toss #4: Tails
Toss #5: Heads
Toss #6: Tails

This would happen to me, it is an even toss, we will have to come up to something different...Let's see. I will spin the same coin on the table, three times, two heads makes the call heads, the tails makes the call tails... we will go from there.

1st Spin: Heads it is
2nd Spin: Tails it is
and now for the tie breaker spin:
3rd Spin: Heads

OK, the winning spin is heads, now I will take a piece of paper, 1 inch X 1 inch. I will place the two numbers, one on each side. I will drop the paper onto the desk from about 3 feet, it will flip and spin and land face up. The number that lands face up will win heads...we will then proceed from there.

Took me three times to get it to land on the desk.

OK, the final call is

6 gets Heads
1 Gets Tails

Now I simply have to plip the coin...

The Lincoln is balanced on the thumb, flipped in the air twice, the first time will be to decide which side will be face up for the final flip and the winner...

The face up toss is, tails up....

and now for the winner........

NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! And when I looked to see who 1 was I was hoping it was someone I didn't know so I could hate him and blackmail him. LOL. But no, it was spinaker. After all that. Now after all that anticipation I might just have to buy a loupe, it would help. So close!!! Yet so far!!! ouch. Well, thanks for the chance anyway and such close chances. Your choosing methods are complicated. And I can't decide if I like or hate the suspense, I think I like it some. Well, thanks and I'll get you back spinaker!
