I stole this game off another message board that I frequent. (as much as I can, despite the superimposition that invariably results on my home computer!) It basically works like Hangman or Wheel of Fortune. I’ll post a quote with the letters missing (you’ll see what I mean in a second) and you guess the letters. As letters are guessed I’ll insert them into the quote. The person who solves it gets to do the next one. We’ll also include a category for the quote. Words will be separated by a slash, and each letter will have a space after it for easier reading. Let’s start with an easy one so y’all can see how it works: Category - Musical Quotes - - - - / - / - - - - - / - - - - / - - - - / - - / - - - - - / - / - - - - / - - - / - / - - - / - - - - - - - / , / - - - / - - - / - - - - / - - - - / - - - - / - - / - - / - - / - - - / - - - - / - - - - / - - - / - - - - - / - - - - / - - / - - / - - - / - - - -.
