[QUOTE=twickster] Toward what end? I’m going to call this a wrong guess --\*\* Santo Rugger \*\* has the only guess left on her. [/QUOTE] Toward what end indeed… I guess we’re not being very good hosts. In any event, this gala has the potential to become more disappointing for the hosts than that highschool prom where the president told me to organize a bender and I heard her say “blender”. :smack: ---

**Omi** , last I checked, you’re the guests, not the hosts. Dunno where the other hosts are at the moment, actually. Hmm. Anyone checked the butter-knife-tracheotomy closet lately? Right-o. I’m going to bed. Tomorrow I will be making random guesses about you all. Helpfulness will be rewarded! With a smile… ---

Very droll, **brujaja**. I heard something funny on NPR this morning: To a foreigner, a Yankee is any American. To a Southerner, a Yankee is any Northerner. To a Northerner, a Yankee is from New England. To a New Englander, a Yankee is from Vermont. To a Vermonter, a Yankee is anyone who has apple pie for breakfast. 😃 ---
