Jan and i had our first house party this weekend. We BBQ'd, Steve-san made sushi, Dan played the djembe and we tried to star-gaze (although the only clear "star" was the neighbors porch light). The highlight for me was a scandalous game of "Leora*dash"! The object of this game is seduce others into believing that your definition was written by Leora rather than the dictionary. For example:

Can you guess which definition of "Nugatory" was written by Leora?

1. Commonly confused with "negatory good buddy" meaning instead a category of bygone events.
2. sticky and sweet like nougat, but not with nuts.
3. a factory that manufactures nuget for candy bars... in Texas.
4. An escape for puppeteers formerly obsessed with cadberry eggs and/or problems salivating during performance.
5. the study of how the nugget gets into the chocolate candy.
6. a school for 2nd or 3rd or 4th born children (but not 5th born) where they learn the art of giving "nuggies".
7. something remarkably sparkly and fresh. ex. "what nugatory breath you have!".

take your pick!
