Matt is in the 7th grade. He likes baseball and playing the saxophone
Lauren is in the 7th grade. She likes boogieboarding and attending science fiction movies with her friends.
Today's physical game is SMELL O LETTER, and they also have the www.wheel2000.com wedge. However, beware of the LOSER, and especially THE CREATURE!
Jerry, the Fatman director, gets to pick the first category: Just Stuff, Paint By Numbers, and Every Body.
