Well, it looks like Paul Keating will have his opportunity to test the new
version of Cory as he tied with Wayne Scott for the lead with 6 points.
Since Paul leads Wayne in the Rolling Scores by 1 point, he will have the
deal.
Mike Shefler takes runner-up position with 5 points.
Despite the fact that EEM sounds as though it should have associations with
mothers and maternal relatives (the Hebrew 'eema', for instance), the true
definition that I gleaned from the OED was 9: "To spare time, to find an
opportunity." (OED 2nd Edition). I thought I had a D0 going before Russ
slipped in and gave me a D1.
So Paul, roll out Cory 4.4 and give it a good test.
