A) not brave enough to try a hula-hoop or limbo contest, though my kids are. I will, however, attempt the Hokey-Pokey and the Bunny-hop and be 'tapped out' by the judges on my attempt at the Twist rather quickly.

B) pathetic. Even with two large gumballs I cannot blow very big bubbles...have I lost my touch? I remember blowing the kind that would pop all over my face and get in my hair when I was younger, but I doubt any of my attempts were much larger than tangerines.

D)dyslexic. I cannot to that "YMCA" thing...I simply cannot. YCMA! I spell... YMAC! YCYA!

They got desperate for something that everyone knew towards the end, lol... Weird Al's "Eat It" was also played for those cleaning up the kitchen at the end. :-D
