How about a hot pepper eating contest? You could start with something innocuous like Anaheims, see if anyone drops out, work up to jalapenos, weed out the wussies, and keep going on up the Scoville scale through the cayennes and tepins to the habs, and keep going until there's only one person left, kind of like a spelling bee. It could be fun to come up with many different varieties of peppers. Alex Alexandra Soltow pamra@rockland.net <*><*><*><*><*><*> When you're going through hell, keep going. (Winston Churchill)
