So, there’s this board/card game, called “Sequence”. Mrs. That Dan Guy and I had never heard of it, before my aunt and uncle came to stay with us a few weeks ago. They had talked about what a great game it was, so we picked it up, and played it several times before they left.

At the time, my general assessment was that this board/card game was like a hybrid version of Tic Tac Toe, Bingo, Strategy, and pointless boredom. If I had gone the entire rest of my life never playing it again, I would consider that no small success.

Yesterday, in a moment of utter boredom, MTDG and I decided to try playing it, just for shift and giggles.

Well, it turns out that I must have had some sort of latent, natural aptitude for the game. I was like the Tiger Woods of “Sequence”, thrashing MTDG mercilessly, game after game. I was a virtual juggernaut, incapable of losing, even though I did try to throw a couple of games, to help her redeem her self esteem. It was futile – I won those games as well.

Now, I must search The Google, to see if there is a future for me in this newfound sport. I’ve always felt like I was close to finding an endorsement deal…

Chow for now!

A Tiger Woods comparison for Sequence? Really? Really?
It was nothing but luck and Mr That Dan Guy taking advantage of Mrs That Dan Guy who was playing having had 0 sleep the night before!
Tiger Woods? Really?

More like the Mother Teresa of "Sequence", considering how compassionately I tried to allow you to win a couple of games...
