HAHA nice Bill.

Funny but that reminds me of a card game called curses. there is a curse that whenever that person is touched they must act as if the person who touched them were trying to steal them and say "you're always after me lucky charms."

Game is hilarious! Family friendly and cheap. I will have to bring it to RRE.
