Title: Yay, Nay or Eh?
Post by: Matt on August 26, 2009, 06:46:43 PM
Howsabout we get us a game going? The rules: Each person names three things/people/places/etc. The next poster gives their opinion on those things by answering either YAY (you like it), NAY (you hate it) or EH (*shrug*). That person then names three things, and so on.

I'll start:

1) The Kindle
2) Charlie Rose
3) The television series TRUE BLOOD

Thanks again, Baron! :)  I'm glad you like it!

And Reeleyes, I'm not sure about BeTheMarriage (though if you're in on a Saturday night, do catch it, because it is a load of fun) but my show will be forever archived at www.actingupshow.com

I hope you enjoy it.

... I will never speak of this on Tom's show.
