Happy Halloween! For this game, I want you guys to come up with clever Halloween costumes!! They can be punny, rhyming, or just down right funny! A couple of examples:
Being the Rogers family, my husband and I are going as "Jolly Rogers" dressing up like pirates. Mediocre humor, you can do better than this!!!
Two years ago, I wore a shirt that said "Go Ceilings!" and I was a ceiling fan, and my friend put a black box on his back and went as a refrigerator magnet.
I hope this has got your brain flowing!!! Happy Halloween, and happy jousting!!

Captain Caption
Caption contests are fun, but I can't allow something as simple as a one line caption for a contest as historically hilarious as Word Joust! No! You must write the caption to this picture as a song name and the first line of the chorus. This song must be made up by you yourself. As always points for hilarity. Also I'll add points for alliteration and onomatopoeia. Happy Jousting!

Old Geezer
When I was traveling through Nevada recently, we stopped at a gas station and I saw a book that gave rules for how to be an "Old Geezer". I can't remember the rules they gave. Your task is to write some rules for being an "Old Geezer". Write at least 5, but you can have more than one entry of 5. You can write them in poem form, or even set them to music if you like. Don't be an "Old Geezer"....start writing! :)

Acrononymous
Well, I don't really have a reason for this game. I just felt like it. On that note, your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to write an acronym. Doesn't matter what it's about. Points for hilarity, creativity, and alliteration. Happy Jousting!

DISTURBING ADDICTIONS
There's a show on some TV channel called, "My Strange Addiction". I've never watched it, but Comcast had a video clip on their front page about it, about a woman whose strange addiction is eating rocks. In the video it shows her eating rocks and she says how satisfying it is and how she doesn't know how she could ever not eat rocks. Her son was also on the video clip saying how disturbed he is because his mother eats rocks.
Your challenge for our next Word Joust game is to come up with a Strange Addiction. This doesn't have to be an eating addiction, but can be an addiction of any kind. You may write your entry in any way you wish: like a news story, a commercial for a TV show, a poem, limerick, joke, etc, etc. Use your imagination!
Happy Jousting!

TWISTING
Since the country's finances are all in a big, tangled mess, the new Word Joust challenge is to write a tongue twister about what to do about them, and you may choose to just wring your hands or pray. Anything will undoubtedly be better than what congress comes up with. :0s I hope you have more luck than our politicians are having!

What I Did on My Summer Vacation
It's time to channel your inner Irish Medium and think ahead to the end of summer, as though it has already happened! Your challenge is to write a Limerick on the subject of this post's Title, "What I Did on My Summer Vacation." Bonus points for difficult rhymes and literary devices (alliteration, anthropomorphism, etc.). I will end this one next week, so for those traveling on family trips, this COULD be the last completed challenge for awhile, so go ALL OUT!
