Game #29 Results: 
Julie "I May Not Know TV Moms But I Know This" Osborne - 5

Merideth MacLain - I put these 9 items into the google-box and it told me....”you’re either drunk or high to try and find something these things have in common"

Ryan Lilly - The closest lead I got was an entire novel by Ray Bradbury. RAY BRADBURY! On a scale of 1-10, I'm forlorn.

Funniest Answer: Ryan Lilly - Women who combine their powers to create Mecha-Karen, the only creature capable of defeating Godzilla. AKA, people who have definitely asked to speak to the manager.
