[QUOTE=cmkeller] Wow - third, and I don’t even do Halloween! (It scares me religiously to wonder how well I’d do on an X-Mas themed Feud. I can probably name more of the true eight reindeer than most Americans, and I wouldn’t make the mistake of saying “Rudolph.”) [/QUOTE] Yeah, but did you know that it was originally “Dunder” and not “Donner”? And that the actual poem is called “A Visit from St. Nicholas” not “The Night Before Christmas”? ---

Dang, a rare top ten. Fighting my way back to averageness! ---

[QUOTE=Dolores Reborn] All we ever did was “roll” houses . . . [/QUOTE] Thank you! I felt weird being the only one who called it “rolling” a house or yard. That’s what we called it when I was a kid. Maybe a generational thing? 😃 And thanks a million to you and the feudwrights for doing these addictive little boogers. ---

[QUOTE=This’ll Do] Thank you! I felt weird being the only one who called it “rolling” a house or yard. That’s what we called it when I was a kid. Maybe a generational thing? 😃 [/QUOTE] There’s also a [regional element](http://aprendizdetodo.com/language/?item=20021031) involved, although “rolling” (generally a Southern option) was the term of choice when I (born 1959) was growing up in northeast Ohio. Since I moved to Indiana in 2001, I’ve heard “TP’ing” more. Thought that just popped into my head: I wonder if anyone has participated in each Feud conducted since **The Game Room** opened? Although I’m one of the regulars, I’ve missed several, mostly because I was away from the computer for a few days (or just got on line a few minutes late), but occasionally for lack of interest in the topic and a desire to let the true fans of a particular film series or other pop culture phenomenon battle it out.
