{font-size:10pt;font-family:V</style>1. Which character from the world of Groo (other than Groo) would you most like to have over for Holiday Dinner and why?<b> At first, I thought Chakaal (because I imagine courageous, sword-wielding women such as Eowyn, Joan of Arc and Anne Bonny to be exceptional conversationalists). Ulitmately, however, I decided to go with Weaver and Scribe (because I too, eke out my living as a storyteller).</b> <br>2. What ideal gift, if you were Santa in Groo's world, would you leave under your character's tree this year? (the character mentioned above). <b>An elaborate set of quill pens and a journal of parchment bound in leather.</b><br>3. How many of Santa's elves do you think Groo would accidentally slay if he wandered up to the North Pole? <b>He'd very nearly slay the first three he encountered. After that, word would get around . . .</b><br>4. How many penquins do you think Groo and Rufferto might roast if they wandered up to the North Pole? <b>Two.</b><br>5. If you made a Groo snowman, which vegetable would you use for his nose? <b>A gourd (my wife voted 'sweet potato').</b><br>6. If Groo crashed Grooella's Christmas Masked Ball, which of the following foods would he name his second favorite (behind cheese dip of course): <b>c. Mince Pies because I think he'd be fascinated by them. Just think! A whole new running gag! ("Mince pies?"</b>)<br>7. What yuletide favorite would the Minstrel most likely sing/play first? <b>He'd put to rhyme (again) T'WAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS.</b><br>8. Which of the following classic Christmas grouches would last the longest in a duel against Groo? <b>f. Lucy Van Pelt, primarily because I don't believe Groo would at first feel endangered by a child (at least not until said child humiliates him like she does to Charlie Brown).</b><br>9. Which Groo character (including Groo) would you most like to meet under the mistletoe? <b>Arba.</b><br>10. Which three (3) GROO characters would top Santa's 'naughty' list? <b>Since I can't remember which of the tyrant kings Groo has slain and which he hasn't, I'll go with Taranto, Pal and Grativo.</b><br>11. Which three (3) GROO characters would you most like to go sledding with? <b>Mulch and two of the Witch of Kaan's monkey-like minions.</b><br>12. Which GROO character, besides Groo and Rufferto, would you most like to see made into an ornament? <b>The Witch of Kaan, stooping alongside a couple of her Orangutans . . .</b><br>13. What 'secret santa' gift would you buy for the following Groo characters:<br><br>a. Dakarba: <b>A non-stick iron cauldron</b><br>b. Rufferto: <b>A new collar (expressly for adventuring)</b><br>c. The Witch of Kaan: <b>A 'spare' glass eye</b><br>d. Arcadio: <b>A scented salve - not unlike aftershave - to smooth upon his generous chin</b><br>e. Captain Ahax: <b>A cask of tar (to be used as caulk for repairing his ship(s))</b><br><br>14. Name the three (3) GROO characters most likely to go caroling . . . <b>'lil Groo, Minstrel, 'lil Grooella</b><br>15. Which three (3) GROO characters would top Santa's 'nice' list? <b>Ambassador Gru, Rufferto, The Sage</b><br>16. If Groo and Rufferto were attacked by an army of mutant gingerbread men, would they slay first then eat, or nibble first and slay second? <b>Groo would charge in, hacking and slashing, then discover they taste good. Upon loudly proclaiming this, Rufferto (having attacked first with his teeth) would say: "Groo! I told you that!"</b><br>17. Assuming the Sage were Santa, who would make the best mall santa - Grativo, Drumm or Granny Groo? <b>Drumm. And Pal would sell overpriced photos of your children with 'Santa'.</b><br>18. What do you suppose was 'lil Groo's first ever gift? <b>A toy ship from his mother (which he'd promptly sink).</b><br>19. Which is emptier, Groo's head or Pal's stocking? <b>Groo's head (Pal's stocking would at least have coal in it).</b><br>20. If Groo stowed away in Santa's sleigh sans Rufferto, would the vehicle crash/sink/burn or would Santa's magic be strong enough to counteract the bad luck effect? <b>Santa's sleigh is kindling. It might not go down until a third of the way into his journey but go down it will. Not even Santa is safe from Groo . . .</b><br><br>Happy Holidays to everyone and best wishes for a healthy season!<br><br>Rocky<br> <br><hr>Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. <a href="http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/177141665/direct/01/">Sign up now.</a> <br /><hr />Your E-mail and More On-the-Go.
