Round 3050 RANGA Results

[Tim Lodge]

Mike Shefler is our new dealer (again!) with four votes for his drone-like Indian accomaniment, while Judy Madnick is the real winner with an unnatural four points.  Judy was also the ony one to guess that RANGA is an Australian derogatory colloquialism for a red-haired person, from orangutan.

Take it away, Mike.

And all I did was choose the two "people"! Those four point will help make up for all the zeros I've earned lately. LOL!

 

Congrats, Mike!
