This is the one about the cookout where everyone was supposed to bring something and Hoagy showed up with a bowl of wax lips.

Cousin Saul was having a cookout one summer and everyone who was invited was supposed to bring something....a salad, soft drinks, jarts, hot dogs, burgers, crackers etc.

Hoag showed up with a bowl of wax lips.

Oh crap...the title kinda gave away the punchline.

    Now, now...everyone knows the party doesn't really get started till the bowl of wax lips arrives.

    Jarts are now outlawed in Massachusetts. Really.

    Really? JARTS is illegal in MA? That's just weird.

    Jarts are large, heavy lawn darts.

    They kill children and dogs.

    "They kill children and dogs."

    Only in the hands of a skilled player. Anyone else just gets lucky.

    I know (thanks, Google!) but that other hit was in the top three so...I couldn't resist.
