Wrapped in a ribbon, tied with a bow, sealed with a kiss....
Gifts are the best thing, ever (well, except for a nice MLT...mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich when the mutton is so nice and lean and the tomato is ripe....they're so perky...but I digress)...
Welcome to Watch Wars...Gift edition:
Our first contestant.......he's up early....mainly because he lives farther east than the rest of us and he doesn't have a job (bum....lucky...but a bum)
It's Rich.....of the always on time for everything because he's always wearing a watch variety:
Very nice. And a gift from Dad...extra nice. It's a year younger than I am and that makes it cool.....69 (snicker). The face is simple. The lack of numbers would normally bug me....but you guys are wearing me down......I'm starting to.....i'm not going to say "accept" because you'll give me grief (I'm looking at you NurseDave) .......let's say I'll acknowledge that no numbers isn't so bad and we'll move on. I like the band, doesn't look as pinchy. Rich may not have as many watches as the Dave's but he has some high caliber pieces.
Next up......Dave.....of the gift that keeps on giving variety:
..and I mean that literally....because he already used this watch (and won) in a previous contest. It's a lovely piece and the fact that
@AvocadoQueen was involved gives it extra bonus points (she's the real winner in that couple) but for a guy that has so many watches......this can't be the only watch you pull out every 18 contests. Try harder.
Next up is Dave.....of the hey there, hi there, ho there variety:
Quite nice....but where's the story morning glory? This gets an A in presentation and a zero in details. I'm hoping that as the day moves toward lunch that we'll get more info or its going to be a pass from me...dog.
**edit
....seems Dave is upset that I didn't give his story telling skills any bonus points yesterday so he's taking his ball(s) and going home. Come on buddy.....that's not how we do around here.
**another edit
Well, Dave...of the See ya Real Soon (not!) variety didn't come back and elaborate on his Mickey watch (I'm sure it was given to Dave by Ariel after she got her voice back from Ursula and was crafted from a whale bone using real dingle-hoppers)
So the judge's are sitting down with a delicious blend of mediterranean olives and artichokes (and a bit of mozzerella thrown in) for their lunch so it's time to award a winner...
@Majorrich
Rich's watch had a story and it wasn't already a winner (the Dave's are letting us all down....BOOOOOOOOO)
Maybe they'll think about what they've done here today over the weekend and will return to this thread with much more competitive attitudes.
Monday's theme......if our two returning champs can see fit to join us.....will be cars.
Have a great weekend....and we'll see ya soon on Watch Wars!!
