Ok I think a game using urbandictionary.com somehow would be fun... I don't know how it would go or anything but maybe somebody else has any ideas? I dono some sort of slang word game? just a thought...
Gina, thanks for the idea. I will look into it and see if I can come up with something.
As soon as I get home I will work on coming up with a game. I am at work right now and can't get on the urban dictionary website.
David, can you explain what the Kevin Bacon game is? I've never heard of it, but I am always open for new games.
The Kevin Bacon game is based on the concept of 6 degrees of separation. The premise is that you can link any actor to Kevin Bacon (presumably because of the volume of work) in six steps or less. For instance if you wanted to link Robert De Niro to Kevin Bacon you could go.1.Robert Deniro to Harvey Keitel in the Taxi driver.
2.Harvey Keitel to Jon Voight in National Treasure.
3.Jon Voight to Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible.
4.Tom Cruise to Kevin Bacon in A Few Good Men.
It gets really interesting if you can come up with some obscure stars.
Sounds like a fun game. I will set up a thread to start the game.
