TAG.........................YOU'RE IT!
Happy Birthday, Andy Gibb
How much simplier play time was when we were little. There were no referees or coaches and play was physical and imaginary. We can all remember staying outside after dinner til the street lights came on, playing these games to our heart's content. Who can forget playing Tag, Hide & Seek, Kick the Can, Dodgeball, Simon Says, Hopscotch, Giant Steps, What Time is It, Mr. Fox, Jump Rope, etc. When we weren't playing these games we were riding our bikes with playing cards attached to the rims by clothes pins so we sounded like a motor cycle. Do you remember turning your tricycle upside down and moving the wheel with the pedals and calling it Mr.Popcorn Man? Do you remember standing outside your friend's house and yelling, "Oh Johnny, can you come out and play?" at the top of your lungs? Or going up to front door and knocking and asking your friend's mother is he/she could come out and play? I would venture at this moment, you are going back in time and smiling at the innocent days of our youth.
Not to be undone at our age now, here are some slowed-down versions of the good old ones.
GAMES FOR WHEN WE ARE OLDER
2. Hide and go pee.
3. 20 questions shouted into your good ear.
4. Kick the bucket
5. Red Rover, Red Rover, the nurse says Bend Over.
6. Musical recliners.
7. Simon says something incoherent.
8. Pin the Toupee on the bald guy
Answer to 3/5's triva question: Which is the best side to take when flipping a coin and why. Tails because the head picture weighs slighting more than the tail side, so it generally ends up on the bottom.
Today's Trivia Question: When you were it and were finished counting in a hide and seek game, you generally yelled one of 3 things before you opened your eyes and began to seek. What were they?
Thought for the Day: Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.
