Here’s a game that I learned years ago from a friend, a Haah-vad grad. It’s a little difficult to explain in writing, but I’ll do my best. You think of a title of a movie, and then make up a silly title which rhymes with the real title. You do not share this with the others yet. Then you say, “I’m thinking about a movie that is about [then describe the pretend title without actually saying it] and it rhymes with a movie that is about [then describe the real movie].” The next person guesses the pretend title. Told you it was hard in writing! Here’s an example: I’m thinking about a movie that is about calling repeatedly for sheep hair by name, and it rhymes with a popular boxing movie starring Robert Deniro. Answer: “Paging Wool” Boooooo! Best I could come up with at work. This is a game that the Board’s movie buffs will ace. Any takers? ---
