nose

If there is a group of people, and there is an unpleasant task to do, the last person to put their finger on their nose is the one who has to do it. Sometimes someone will say "nose" to instigate the onset of "nose," and again, the last person to put their finger on their nose, loses.

note: this has NOTHING to do with picking your nose. You put your finger on the OUTSIDE, not the INSIDE, of your nose. If you have trouble destinguishing between the two, there is probably a sesame street song that will help.

Person 1: The trash is overflowing!! Someone really should take it out.
Person 2: Nose!
(persons 1-8 put their finger on their nose, followed by person 9)
Person 3: hahaa, Person 9, you lose, you have to take out the trash, and boy does it stink!
(Person 9 tries to argue, then realizes that it's futile, and reluctantly takes the trash out.)

Dustin Diamond

Dustin Diamond co-starred as Samuel Powers, aka Screech, in Saved By The Bell. He started the show when the class was in 8th grade, with Ms. Bliss, continued with it throughout high school, AND the college years, AND he was still there for "the new class."

Dustin Diamond did NOT improve with age, and would probably have had a hard time getting any other role in anything, since he was instantly recognizeable as Screech.

Screech is the epitome of a dork.

clear channel

Originally, a clear channel radio station was one that had somehow gotten the right to have a number on the dial with no other radio stations anywhere near it-- therefore, you could hear it for hundreds of miles, both because it had a very strong signal, and because there were no other radio stations with similar dial numbers competing with it.

35 years ago, you could hear WBZ (which was a clear channel radio station based in Boston) as far away as Ohio.

lincoln logs

A fantastic toy. Has been in existance for at least 50 years. Vaguely reminiscent of Legos, but made of wood instead of the cheap, brightly-colored plastic that so dominates the toy market today. These pieces of wood were round, and maybe a foot long, and were notched, such that you could build a real log cabin, but one that would fit in a corner of your room. All you had to do was make a square with 4 logs and line up the little notches, with the left and right sides under the top and bottom sides (or the other way around). Then add two more logs. And two more. Repeat until your cabin was as tall as you wanted it to be. A very simple process, but it was really cool. It also had some sort of a roof, though I don't remember exactly how that worked; I just remember the roof was green.

Lincoln Logs were classic.

minimizing addict

A person who never closes windows when they are done with them, but simply minimizes them. This is especially relating to web browser windows. The person's rational for doing this is the same as what New Hampshire's new state motto should be: It Might Come In Handy.

Example of one situation in which a person might be a minimizing addict:
"I googled his name, but hardly any websites came up, so I thought hmm, maybe I spelled it wrong... so I minimized Google, and opened a new browser window and went to his college's website, but I couldn't find him there either, so I thought wait! I think he transfered! So I minimzed that window, and opened a new one to go to the other college, and then...."
