  1. I am really not sure what to make of this. Disturbing is really an understatement.

    Do they also have best of show in the Buggery Buggy parade?

  2. And apparently it is a team sport, according to the registration form:

    The picture of the students happily holding up their index fingers says it all, I think. GO TEAM!

  7. Is cornhole a noun or a verb?

  8. Dear Kevstar -- I always thought it was a noun. Shows what I know.

  9. It can be either of course, but how is it used here? Noun would imply a beauty competition, verb, more of an athletic undertaking.

  10. I do know that Backdoor Santa is definitely a noun...
