the "battle dome" on the quest was pretty interesting. i'm glad that leticia won in such an amazing way. it was a 3-person fight between her, shondo & andrew (i think). the whole idea was to be the last one standing by knocking others off of a balance beam by using a blunted sword & padded shiels. one guy rushed the other, knocked him off & then rushed leticia, but she was braced against the wall of the "battle dome" & managed to knock that guy off. (it happened so fast that i'm not sure what happened. i don't think she did either) so now 3 our of 4 of the people i picked have won challenges. patrick was just moments behind andrew when he won that task. ETA: and it was raining at the elimination, but they didn't have the paladins wear any cloaks or anything. the castle steward did, "the fates" did. anyway, two episodes this next time.

my brother & i went to dragon-con in '09 & '10 but it was very good we did not go this year because i was sick starting wednesday.
sore throat, runny nose (especially thursday & friday) & sneezing, but i tried not too because it made the throat worse to the point that i could barely talk above a whisper from thursday to mid-day sunday. i told my brother if i went i would've been patient-zero for the con crud.

BTW i'm much improved, except for some coughing & a slight sore throat.

also: sucrets, while helpful, are nasty. especially on an empty stomach.
