Trivia Night at Luther North High School. Each team/table has to have a theme and ours was ’70s pajama party. We had typical snacks, pizza, popcorn, candy, wine….a Twister game, a record player and 45s, magazines, a princess phone, hair dryer, curlers, hairspray. We didn’t do too well on Trivia but we aced in props.

I actually looked up the definitions for “jam” as a noun:
1. the act of jamming or the state of being jammed.
2. a mass of objects jammed together or otherwise unable to move, except slowly.
3. a difficult or embarrassing situation.
YEAH, IT WORKS!!
