16. So you like 'em a little on the nerdy side, eh?
I agree, though - "dream date" guy was a little on the "slick" side. :hi:

50. I guess I was a liberal as a kid
Because I always thought the dud was better looking (just needed a shave & a bath) than the "dream guy" in a monkey suit.

I have an unfair advantage at Twister, though, because I have three arms.

We should play something else. How are you at Jacks?

If Georgie played Risk more often, he might not try and do it in the real world so much. Although I'm sure he couldn't play a successful game without daddy there to give him advice and support.

58. Wow! Your father sounds amazing!
My brother and I were always so much more intelligent than our parents, we were always intimated by outsmarting them, it's wierd...

We once invented a game we called "Rock and Roll Chess" where the object was to capture as many of the opponents pieces as quickly as possible... (Plus you had to scream real loudly after capturing a piece). Most games only lasted about ten-fifteen minutes...

It was fun...:)

67. 1955 Parker Brothers Escort "game of guys and gals"


Look closely at the game board. The object is for the husband to "escort" his new bride to the house in the suburbs. I kid you not.

I actually have this game, and about 50 more from the 50's.
