No, it wasn't at Nationals, but it is BB related :). ^Oh, wait…who are you (if you don't mind me asking). I thought you were Everett C, but he was obviously at Nationals.^
2 Corinthians 5:17
Her name is Abigail, and she is Sarah's cousin. :)
M27
Thanks :)! I see that she and Everett C have the same username – which I guess is why I got confused.

Oh, that makes sense why you said you learned Greek at swimming :); it took me awhile to figure that out. No, I didn't meet your brother, but I think I know some of the same people that he does :).
@Rachel: I guess you're right! You probably saw it on the blog :). That's us opening our Bible Bee box at 12:01 on June 1st! I'm looking forward to doing that this year! :D
Mommy's Helper
For the last two years I've ranked 1st at Locals! :D (last year Titus A. and another girl tied with me though)

That's neat that you had a three-way tie for 1st place. We've never had a tie at our local Bee, but last year in both the Primary and Senior age division 1st and 2nd place were two questions apart!
Sarah B.

No…… Abigail had to disown me for being bad… I don't have time now to list my crimes. ;P hehe!
2 Corinthians 5:17
Grow, little dots, GROW! xD

Let me just make a friendly little suggestion that each of you look at the first (sort of second) page of the Competition Rule Book :).
M27
Oh, and I'm pretty sure that it's "legal" for me to say that! At least, it should be since it's in the Competition Rule Book :).
2 Corinthians 5:17
xD
M27
Could someone please test this link for me and tell me if it works? I need to know if it's visible to the public now. Thanks!

2 Corinthians 5:17
It works! :D
2 Corinthians 5:17
We're signed up!!!!! :D
^But also a little cry…as it's my last year.. =(^
M27
Yay!!!!!! Thanks so much, Rachel! Whew! That was just about the longest fifteen minutes of my life! ^very slight exaggeration :)^
M27
:( I'm sorry you have to graduate. But maybe you can volunteer! :)
2 Corinthians 5:17
All good things must come to an end, I suppose…
I hope to volunteer =)
M27
I just wanted to let everyone know that I have now started a blog to encourage others in the study and memorization of God's Word! To learn more about it go to sweeterthanhoneyblog.blogspot.com

Let me just make a friendly little suggestion that each of you look at the first (sort of second) page of the Competition Rule Book :).
So I Googled and read a Wikipedia article on this Robert Upton. He was born in 1884, ran for U. S. Senator, failed, and died in 1972. I look forward to observing how he will run the Bible Bee posthumously. Perhaps we could nickname this chap "Lazarus". Just an idea.
Everett C.
It's probably this guy: https://www.linkedin.com/pub/robert-upton/35/762/b70
Emily H
My mom says, "Did you ever watch Time Changer?" xP
Margaret Eddy
Oh, of course, I should have thought of the time-travel option.
Actually Russell Carlisle would probably make a great Bible Bee director:
"Young lady, young lady! It is wrong to not wave your hands in the air when you are told!"
Margaret Eddy
Bother. That chap does look much less exciting, but more probable. (We could still call him "Lazarus", I suppose, but it would not be nearly as applicable.)
Emily H
She says, "That is great."
Jedidiah Diligence Breckinridge III
She says, "That is *great*."
We love Time Changer! So quotable.
Emily H
"Is that customary?" For some reason that's probably are most quoted line from there. :P
M27
"Young lady! You just stole my hot dog!"
2 Corinthians 5:17
"May I ask where you go to church?" :P
Matthew Minica
Really wants to see Time Changer xP
M27
"May I ask where you go to church?" :P
I assume that you are quoting Time Changer rather than actually asking me (surely you wouldn't have forgotten less than 24 hours after I told you :)).
2 Corinthians 5:17
"May I ask where you go to church?" :PI assume that you are quoting _Time Changer_ rather than actually asking me (surely you wouldn't have forgotten less than 24 hours after I told you :)).
Yes. XD
Margaret Eddy
So this Bible Bee webinar thing, are any of you doing it? We would have to signed up to participate, so I don't think we will be able to attend. In the questions section could someone ask if they will still make us wave our hands in the air at Nationals? Please?
Emma
I am. I'll ask for you! :)
Margaret Eddy
Thanks so much!
2 Corinthians 5:17
really, really hopes they say "yes, we are still going to do the handy waving thingy" XDDD
Emma
really, really doesn't care one way or another but will do it if it makes someone happy :)

2 Corinthians 5:17
Oh c'mon!!! It's fun! And no one sees you do it because there are so many people doing it ;D
M27
*really, really hopes they say "yes, we are still going to do the handy waving thingy"* XDDD
I agree with Rachel! :D They just can't take it away from us. We might continue to do it anyway :).
Esther Grace
Yes. If they take it away we wave our hands whenever we have an opportunity.
M27
We, as contestants, have the right to wave our hands. We have freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of hands. We have the right to peaceably assemble to wave our hands.
2 Corinthians 5:17
It is the 28th amendment of the Constitution.
Emma
xP! :)
2 Corinthians 5:17
Reminder!! BB webinar in half an hour. :)
James C.

James C.
