...extra point, a player can simply turn his head and no-look point to an H1N1 sign. The most difficult maneuver in the game, attempted and unconverted in one try so far, is to read HUDS’s on-table signs about swine-flu risks and then successfully mention “the crook of the elbow” in conversation unrelated to “places where you should safely sneeze...
...before you thank me for that, I wanted to mention a couple of things. Your Treasury Department has thus far been good at keeping its mouth shut about the value of our currency.
