Dude, Don't Doubt the Decathlon

Alright I was somewhat bluffing with claiming ten events. By the time this article comes out the first six will be done. It's the last four which intrigue me because I only have a solid idea of the seventh event. So it may be somewhat run on the fly. As well suggestions of events to be associated with D'Oh and Devastating Deeds would be appreciated and rewarded if you email me at jd2nicho@uwaterloo.ca.

Well here is a summary of the final four events. To participate sign up on the MathSoc office door. Its totally cool to sign up for only one or two events if that's all that interests you.

Don't Drown da Ducks: A classic rubber ducky race down the river cross campus. Encourage your duck along by tossing rocks. Though don't drown any of the ducks. June 20, 4 pm.

D'Oh: Think you're a Simpsons fan? June 20, 12 pm.

Devastating Deeds: Have you ever been embarrassed? I think not! June 27, 12 pm.

Dripping Dave Drop: (I don't know) I guess drop stuff and then in the end I will be dripping. Or perhaps drip stuff and then I will be dropping. Will it be food or perhaps water, maybe pudding, mmmm I like pudding. June 27, 4 pm.

Come on out for the last four events for a merry olde time. I strive for spectator worthy. I would suggest that Dripping Dave Drop would certainly be spectator worthy and I don't even know what it is yet. That's how excited I am about the Dripping Dave Drop. Oh yeah the other events will be good too.

Well the results from the first four events are in. The winners:
Dumbass Downhill Dash: Chris Marks — 30.15sec.
Down the Dubious Dew: Clement The — 19.58sec.
Dandelion Decapitation (Domino Decapitation): Jason Lau — 3 Dominoes
Dana's Dewey Decimal Dash: Jason Lau — 0.3 Hours

Winners can come see me for their prizes. Thanks to those who have participated.

David Nicholson.
