Uh, sorry **Ich Bin’s** …I was just noticing that if we’re still adhering to the two-hour limit, **Team 2** has, well, dropped the ball. ( **Lola** ’s post was 2 hours, 45 minutes before **Ich Bin’s**. )

Well, bother. That puts **Team 1** in the lead, and the scores (should) stand as follows:

**SCORE**

Team 1: :):):):):):)🙂  
Team 2: :):):):):)🙂

So since the pattern lately seems to be that I get to pick the next word, since I was the first to notice we needed one:

My vote will be for **family**. [sub]Since I can’t think of a good word to compete with _sex_…[/sub]

**Peter Gabriel** - Family Snapshot

OK, it’s been more 2 hours. Looks like team 2 scores another point. Anyone want to toss out another word?

With another 2 hours come and gone, **Team 1** ’s lead increases, and the scores are now:

**SCORE**

Team 1: :):):):):):):)🙂  
Team 2: :):):):):)🙂

And since the pattern seems to indicate that I get to choose the next word, how about:

**All**
