Wumbo Posted December 9, 2012 Author Share Posted December 9, 2012 Nice job, SOF! Obviously movies and specials are your forte. All right, the next category is music once again, but this time, instead of naming the tune, you must fill in the blank with the correct word. Example: "Chestnuts ______ on an open fire" The answer would be "roasting". This one will be hosted by yours truly, so remember to PM WUMBO this time around.
