If booze isn't your thing or you fear getting drunk, disorderly with frustration, or you have a final to study for, try these ideas to enhance your SoS viewing pleasure:
- Make Schwarzenegger Bingo cards for you, your club, family, or friends to play. Make a 5x5 square grid - center is free! - and fill in the boxes with words like "reform," "special interests," "Maria," "initiative," "special election," and "legislature." Or download an example here and then shuffle up your own playing cards to make it a real competition. Make sure only one card has the automatic you-lose square: "Jingle All The Way."
- Play "I Spy" and call out you favorite legislators or members of the California Supreme Court.
- For those with HDTV, play "count the pores." Ha! Trick game - he has none!
- Have a friends or club members write down their guesses about how tall Arnold really is.
- Bet on how many initiative proposals Arnold will unveil.
- Bet on how often Arnold invokes "Maria" and other woo-the-women's-vote catch phrases.
- For those with TiVo, mute the sound, invent your own rhetoric, and see how closely you come to what he really says.
