Have y’all seen the “Whose Line is it, Anyway?” sketch where the participants must speak only in song titles? I hereby propose a similar game, with the title category broadened to include any type of title. The idea is to compose a story. I will kick it off with:
As I Lay Dying…
I saw her standing there.
and she was
burning down the house
while holding my will and an eraser.
And that was all she wrote.
The cook, the thief, his wife and her lover
Locked in the Closet with You
Face to Face
with a skillet full of eggs
(I’m a fan of Colin Mochrie)
On the street where she lives.
Where the Streets Have No Name.
Don’t go off wandering.
Don’t take your guns to town.
Don’t go breakin’ my heart
STOP! In the name of love
Don’t stop believing.
You Were Always on My Mind
Georgia on my mind…
