#10 – I agonized – and ended up going with my first thought, though I’m afraid this crowd is going to have a huge number of Encyclopedia Brown fans.
Thanks – I was afraid I was the only one who failed to think of projectiles. (Not a parent, and my own childhood is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay in the past. :D)
No Thank you…I actually thought of lawn jarts, but thought it was more of a “game” than a “toy”. Maybe that is why I am always in the middle of the pack.

Whoa, I’m the only one who sang:
McDonald’s is your kind of place
They serve you rattlesnakes
French fries between your toes
Hamburgers up your nose
The last time I went there
They stole my underwear
McDonald’s is your kind of plaaaace!
Frank Oz voiced Miss Piggy, but didn’t Jim Henson “create” every Muppet until his death? Officially at least.
