Why Not? said...

1. Kick ball, capture the flag, tag of all sorts, Dragons and Unicorns (yeah the dragons, boys, would chase the girls, unicorns).. seems like we were running around just making up games in the neighborhood.. indoors it would be a lot of board games and I would try to play the NES, nbut my brother would kick me off of it pretty quick.

2. I'm reading the latest of the Dexter books.. but I have not had a lot of time to sit and read anything other than childrens books at the moment.

3. solitare, crazy 8s, war, speed... dunno sure there are more

4. "Wanna make God laugh, make a plan" dont know where it comes from, but as a person who had a plan to move to Sweden for one year it's very fitting..

Toad said...

drewzepmeister said...

1) Kick the Can,Tag,Hide and Seek,Midnight/Midnight and Bloody Murder. OK we made them up as we went along-anything to keep us running amok in the neighborhood.

2) I'm currently still reading Jean M. Auel's "The Land of Painted Caves"

3) All kinds of card games. I love playing cribbage.

4) "When the power of love overcomes the love for power, the world will know peace" by Jimi Hendrix.

OKIE said...

1. Kickball, baseball, hide and seek.
2. The Kennedy Detail
3. I do a lot of computer solitaire but I really like Free Cell. I also love the board game Rummy Royal.
4. "Stupid is as stupid does". Reminds me of the United States Congress.

MinnesotaChick said...

1) Badminton, hide & seek, board games, frisbee, 4 square (lived near a corner so that was the prime spot) so many I can't remember.

2) I haven't read a book in a long time. Don't remember the last one.

3) Some poker games, but I am not very good at any of them

4) Some people are like slinkies, not really good for anything but they still make you smile when you push them down the stairs. (*don't know who said it, and I probably said it wrong)

OrbsCorbs said...

1) Mostly I think I ran around yelling a lot.

2) The internet destroyed my book habit. I'll read an occasional poem or short story. I also start books, but never finish them.

3) Cribbage and most pokers. Oh, and solitaire. In college I played sheepshead and hearts and spades, but I don't remember them anymore.

4) I have many, but I'll stick with "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."

lizardmom said...

1. Sorry and Monopoly, badminton
2. Babyhood by Paul Reiser and With Love and Laughter, John Ritter by Amy Yasbeck
3. don't know any unless Solitaire on the computer count and I am no good at it...
4. We have a board of quote that we like from friends and from TV, amoungst the favorites are -
"Before I eat this... is there anything in this that will make me poop or irregular?" (back-story on that, I like adding flax, oat bran or wheat germ to cookies and things and at times too many can put you out of commission for a bit LOL)
"will eating this salad with low-fat dressing help me look like you? " a customer to Froglover at work
We had to type up the list so we can start a new board :) I may post the list on my blog with back stories to them , we'll see :)
