I used to think I nee...Thanks for the wake-up call. I used to think I needed a transceiver and spine protector before tearing into a bag of "Xtreme" Cheddar and Sour Cream Flavor Blasted Goldfish. I wondered "what is the difference -in terms of extremity- between the Goldfish's "Xtreme" and good old-fashioned extreme (not even capitalized). For that matter, how much further beyond are the "X Games". I'm assuming that brevity in extremity terminology stems from familiarity with the daredevil nature of performing rehearsed athletic routines on manicured half-pipe for a television audience i.e. the more we know "extreme", the less we need to sound out the whole word -or even the beginning vowel. Nonetheless, and in Risk's favor, Hemingway tells us: "There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games." That would include games with the modifier "X", correct Ernest?Le Pistoirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14981315478270691690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9506255.post-15411050495250312472010-03-16T11:13:47.761-04:002010-03-16T11:13:47.761-04:00Drew, I actually own a box Jello Xtreme.
