(you had to be there) the avoid it game is one i could play. i'd have to get bonus points though as i enjoy it in lieu of a comma. well, i laughed at the tearleaders. sounds good on paper (er, monitor) but that’s why they play the game, eh?

The three girls dressed all in black including black pom-poms, would lead the mourners in cheers for the deceased. Maybe something like: Two feet, four feet six feet below, He asked Was it loaded? And now he knows! or Gimme a D, Gimme an E gimme a D-E-A-D Dead! He's dead, he's dead he's well and truly dead. Night of Doomed Relationships: Ilike it! Yep nothing like humor to expose what people really think.. and to expose those who don't think at all. F-Bombs - It is a versatile word, but after awhile we realized we just never said it and it became a kind of a game to avoid it.

But thanks for sharing... Deprechaun: I know, the concept of "Tearleaders" is hilarious, but making it work onstage was beyond us. Like our parody of the old prime time soap Dynasty, "Die Nasty" it never worked. How do you parody somethng that's already a parody? Nicole: My fervent Democratic friend! Thanks for stopping by. If we Republicans are good for anything... I guess it's a laugh, Well Raider, since we had to clean up after ourselves when each show was over… that idea never got much traction.
