From second worst to second first

Weak Sauce had a rough start. After the first round we were only ahead of one other team.  Fortunately for us the picture round was next and we had to identify 10 Mark Wahlberg movies from the pictures - piece of cake!!  Suddenly we were back in the race.

We had the usual crowd - and the usual clowning.
Bill asked the group what I should have as a tattoo.  For the record, I'm not getting one but if I were to get one, what would it be?  Derek came up with something very Jen - Noodles and Petey sitting around campfire toasting marshmallows.  I asked Bill to draw it.  Instead - this is what I got. 
Me.  Passing gas.  As a member of the Hee Haw cast.  This will NOT be my tattoo.
