We asked you to write a haiku about your air travel experiences in last week's Game Time. You did not disappoint. We had some good answers, but here was our favorite:

Mama Ilardo's


That entry was submitted by TONY. No need to shout, Tony, we can hear you fine. Ah, but then maybe you are hard of hearing, in which case, CONGRATULATIONS.

Yesterday, Mike thought that a more appropriate name for an "outlet" was an "inlet." We liked the idea, and made it this week's game:

Give a household item a more appropriate name.

Winner, as always, gets a shout-out. So, put on your thinking caps, and post your ideas in the comments.
