So fur we have 4 players. Marilyn is in the lead with 5 correct glasses, and she is very clothes on several others. I've included some hints inline below.
Winner honors will go to the person with the most correct dresses by Tuesday evening, whether that person chooses to host next weekend or not.
I am still looking for a volunteer to hose next weekend.

1. I had a flat on my car, but had no spare. Desperate to get to my country club appointment, I replaced it with the spare from my golf cart. But when I got to the fancy country club they would not let me into the parking lot because they told me my car was wearing inappropriate BLANK. (This is a word about clothing, not a piece of clothing.)
2. A Jesuit priest on an Indian Reservation was concerned that the young men their had a very lax attitude toward sex, violence and drunkenness. They would often laugh and jest about those activities. The priest would remonstrate them “You shouldn’t BLANK”. (This is a word about footwear worn by indigenous Americans.)
3. The first time I asked a girl to a prom, I told her I was going to wear a tuxedo, and I expected her to dress appropriately. She said “I’m BLANK with that.” (This is a word about what a girl might wear to a prom.)
4. What kind of vehicle does an arsonist drive? Obviously, a Chevy BLANK. (I really goofed in the original email and said Ford. Duh. What in BLANKs what I thinking?)
5. Although my twin sisters were ostensibly identical, one went through puberty six months ahead of the other. She developed quite large breasts rather rapidly. The second twin said she didn’t mind so much, but she wished her sister wouldn’t BLANK so much about it. (Guys would elbow each other and say "Hey, BLANK, look at her!")
6. I always wear my lucky sweater to play poker. One night, I kept losing hand after hand. The dealer kept giving me the same card over and over. Then suddenly I realized I had pulled the wrong sweater out of my closet. “Oh, no!” I said. “I can’t believe I got that unlucky BLANK” (Think of a sweater that begins with card.)
7. When the Indian chieftain ruled several villages he had a large cart made to ride upon which was pulled by a pair of ox. But when his grandfather died and he became a maharaja, he inherited a much more elegant giant carriage pulled by BLANK. (There were two of the giant animals used as beasts of burden in India. This is a word about clothing, not an article of clothing.)
8. My brother often put on affectations of 1800s and 1900s British nobility. For example, upon greeting his friends, he would often say “BLANK, my good fellow!” (My brother was also very hard-headed.)
9. I bought my wife some beautiful silk clothing when I was in India, and she wore it when we went to a party. But one of the women there got angry and accused her of cultural appropriation. All she would say was “I’m BLANK.” (This one is too easy for a hint. If you need one, you are a BLANK excuse for punner.)
