Guess it’s time to wrap this one up. And @running_coach is going to take it by default. That’s okay, Coach, I liked your entry anyway—it made me smile, and I was hoping we’d get something like that.

Your turn, @running_coach !

Although I’m a little disappointed that nobody made a pun involving something like, “Would any of you like to see a whine list?”, I thought they were all great.

But the edge has to go to @Kent_Clark for this one.

It was the “clutches pearls” that cinched it, and nearly caused my monitor to have a coffee shower. Well done, Kent, and it’s your turn.
