Well, Trey, the video didn't work. But you saw it, and like hell am I doing another imitation of Britney Spears. I could hardly breathe through that wig, I will have you know.

Anyway, the stipulation you've given me is that I have to come up with a different challenge. For anyone who's reading, he had to jump over five things in public--a cup, something alive, someone wearing blue, a car... and I forget the fifth.

Personally, I thought it was a pretty good challenge. But, before I give you your new one, I have an institution to implement:

The Challenge Fund Jar.

It has come to my attention that at some points, our challenges may require a small amount of funding. So, The Challenge Fund Jar will offset these costs, and will be filled with money that comes from failure to complete challenges to certain specifications. (Note: Like Congress, you can not pass an ex post facto donation to the jar. Nice try, though.) The donations to this jar will be small. And won't come on every challenge. Just occassionally.

Because we both need to keep our own money.

So, for this challenge, you will eat five tubs of Yoplait Yogurt in three minutes, while giving me a short lesson on chromatography. For every tub of yogurt you do not completely finish, you must put one dollar in The Challenge Fund Jar.

As I calculate, this cannot possibly cost you more than four dollars, plus price of yogurt. I can provide the yogurt if absolutely necessary (it's for these kinds of things that TCFJ is coming into existence), but I'm gonna give you really gross flavors if you call on that. Promise.

Personally, I get about halfway through one tub of yogurt and feel like I'm about to puke. So I'm definitely looking forward to testing your ability to stomach it.

Have fun with that.

Love,

Gracey
