Today I performed the two highest, most important civic duties:

I voted

I voted!

and made my own Plinko game.

It even makes the plink plink sound!

Today, I am an American.

I could absolutely not be more impressed with the plinko. I'm coming over, and I'm fully prepared to guess the correct prices of laundry soap and cough drops to earn my plinko chips.

I WILL GET THE FIFTY.

Amy, you already know my feelings about the Price is Right but that is a fine Plinko.

Sorry, I'm on Ashcroft's UnAmerican list.

That plinko board warrants a trip to Choppatown, USA.

For real.

other sara, different points on them is better since we have to play it as a versus game. get ready to have your ass kicked in march madness!

You know, if they combined voting with your Plinko machine (the undecided or apathetic could just vote via Plinko), I truly believe we would have 100% voter turnout.

I had babysitters that watched the price is right but I was like four years old and raised by hippies so as soon as I started going to school it was all PBS at our house and I forgot everything on the Price is Right and Days of Our Lives except that the models all had fabulous (in the sense of "unreal") hair.
