The antics grown adults can get into, some of my favorites are watching folks dance to the challenges, imitating a comic and up and coming singers.  One such comic imitation was a lady (voice of male comic) stating 'I can't believe it is November' like we don't all know each year November comes around the same time, following October.  Made me laugh because we do say some silly things sometimes and until it is...
