AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH-
Get with the program folks.

I gave up long ago.

Oh btw, I believe I was the original starter of the Discussion of Cafe' Games thread, it was created to avoid cluttering up the game threads with this stuff.
Originally because some of the BEETS captions just had to be commented on.
My opinion:( and Gary or whoever can certainly take over ownership of it) this is the place for the clutter. It avoids Drama IN the game threads. If we need to declutter the clutter then... oh what ever works.

Ok, I can see Fire to Broadside, but then to Barn and Tithe?
Julie, maybe we need a seperate discussion thread, so we can discuss our thoughts and not clutter up Gary's so much.
It would definetly be a learning thread.
Input?

can't hit the broad side of a barn

In other words,
You Missed,
have no marksmanship.

Precisely the phrase I was invoking.

I agree. Much of my personal enjoyment of the word link thread comes from figuring out how the other person made their link. Rather than clutter this thread, or the word link thread, please can we have an "education about word links" thread?

Perhaps, or should we simply have a discussion about word games and a discussion about picture games threads?

Hi Bernie, hmm, a bit tenuous at best ...

A link is a link. Some of the fun in this game is the spontaneous link that forms in your mind upon seeing a word. Explaining the link takes the fun out of it.

I've often wondered what fun a psychotherapist could have trying to analyze the players here based on these "Word Link" threads.....

Flies can't eat solid food,
so to soften it up they vomit on it.
Then they stamp the vomit in
until it is a liquid, usually stamping in
a few germs for good measure.
Then when it's good and runny
they suck it all back again, probably
dropping some excrement at the
same time.
And then, when they've finished
eating, it's your turn.

Might answer the question about the fertility god.

IIRC the original game said hints at least every 24 hours.

virgin links nicely to snow, which obviously goes to skiing, which leads to ice, to fishing, and so to sardines - works well in my mind - we obviously think along the same lines....

Nice guitar, Chris:) I also have a Fender but it's no Stratocaster. It's from the Squier series.
