  1. Our little packet of friends holds the "Iron man and woman" contest every New Year's, which includes the egg blowing contest, wall sit, and every popular but painful vacuum hold (which has about 38,417 specific rules). Glad to see there are some other wackos out there who can't just get together and sit around the campfire.

  3. Ooo, wall sit! I can't wait for additional events. Note to Jamie's blog readers...she is an amazing arm wrestler. It was surely the event of the olympics, and she beat me.
