Grist presents - Talking Points Bingo
Download printable bingo cards [PDF] [ZIP].

The Rules:

  1. Download and print off the Palin and Biden boards (there are 10 different boards in total), and pass them out to all your friends.
  2. Mark on your board whenever Palin or Biden says one of the listed words during tonight's debate. (Doesn't matter who says what.)
  3. If you get five words in a row, stand up on a chair and shout "Biden!" or "Palin!" (depending on which board you have).
  4. Sit down.
  5. Pour yourself a drink either to celebrate or commiserate with the veep candidate who just won the debate.

    Bingo for the teetotalers and then for the rest ..

    Choose 4 Copas Tequila, it's certified organic, sustainable and good.

    • Every time she drops a "g" take a shot

    • Every time she says victory in Iraq - take two...
    etc.

    ...come by and add your two cents. I'm downloading bingo cards..

    cheers,

    Work tomorrow

    Why can't they schedule these debates for Friday? I have to work tomorrow and it's certain I'm going to be hungover.

    Maybe I'll TIVO it and make it a weekend marathon with a drinking game to the debate and then tune into Couric's interviews with Palin on Youtube and do a shot every time Couric has to repeat a question trying to get a real answer. Maybe a drink for every "you betcha" and shotgun a beer for every time I hear "I'll get back to you on that".

    Might need to take Monday off....
