totally not! unless you went to the store with the sole purpose to find the answer, in which case, that's just sad.

#4- Scene It!

I saw it at the store last night. Is that cheating?

whoa whoa whoa, rummikub is not lame. the catch phrase is.

"the fast moving rummy tile game that you play with tiles and numbers and it's called rummikub! and it's fast and fun! rummikub! rummikub!"

7 is Rummikub. Don't call Rummikub lame, I love that game.

Alanna knew the same ones I knew (though I think she knew a couple I didn't). It's a good thing she specified that it wasn't me who would lose on purpose. I would never be that nice... ;0)

Speaking of games, Jen, we never did get to play chess together! Someday we'll have to get together and play a round.

I'm gonna throw out a few guesses, but I hardly ever play games (weird, I know), so I'm bad at this.

2-- Taboo?
3-- Yahtzee
4-- Shoot, I just forgot what it's called. That movie trivia game. I'm pretty sure my Mom has one version of it...
5-- or is THIS one Taboo?
6-- Cranium
7-- Rummikub (love this game)
8-- no clue.
9-- This had better be Monopoly
10-- again, no clue
11-- Boggle? No, I don't really think that. One of those "would you rather" games?

Yeah, I suck at this. Sorry.

But speaking of games, did I ever tell you about how my mom gets totally competitive? We were playing Boggle once, and I read my list of words first, and her comment was, "Oh, was that all you got?" BURN! Yeah, that's my mom for you.

And one more: my older sister (not Natalie-- she's my younger sister) as a kid used to feel bad if she beat my parents at games, so she would try to lose. So she and my parents would be sitting around playing Memory, all trying to lose to each other. They said that, other than the fear that there was something seriously wrong with their child, it made for an incredibly boring game that way.

I've rambled on enough. Peace out.

okay, I believe #1 is pictionary.

Am I right?

If not, i *do* know some of the others so let me play again!
