As i sit here at the table surrounded by my dear family on the last night here at the cottage here in the Muskokas, i thought i'd relay some of the conversation going around the table.... quite amusing...
Lauren - these brownies are too good...
Mike - Ooooyyyy....discard...
Rachel - Discard a general store???
Tom - she's got the double barrelled again?
(i'm not cut out to be a court room transcriber by the way)
Mike - alright, Timothy, you and me...duel...BANG
Timothy - i have no cards
Lauren - you can't die, you have to win...
Mike - Hi, hon, i love you....
Rachel - Honey lager??? (pulled a funny joke)
Mom is laughing on the sidelines
Timothy to Rachel - i'm challenging you to a uel
Rachel - i got shot
(This might not be in perfect conversational order)
Rachel - Bang, Timothy
Lauren - No, no, you're going to die, Timothy!! (explodes with three mighty sneezes, banging her elbows on the table)
Timothy - I have a stagecoach, one, two... (deep sighs),
Lauren - there's no Vulture Sam....
(There is logic to this game..
Timothy - i'm going to play a Panic card, and then this Barrel....
Tom - Rachel, Cheater McCheaterson
Timothy - I'm going to play the General Store...I'm going to Bang you Rachel...
Rachel - I'm dead....
Mike - YesSSSSS!!! Exulting in the fact that he just killed Timothy....
Don't worry, at this point, no one is actually dead...my dear family are playing the card game BANG. They are having fun, and are trying their level best to convince me to join in but from the amount of questions and complicated conversation that is going around the table, my poor antique brain would be hurting majorly by the end of the first round...i much prefer watching them and hearing them have fun together - whilst enjoying the lovely lovely breeze coming off Sparrow Lake, anticipating one last dip in the hot tub, listening to loons and drinking a cool beer...
Pics to follow!

ooo i love bang. but you're right - there are about three million rules and they don't all make sense to my little brain, especially when you start the game late in the evening, which is usually the case...
hope you had a blast at the cottage! apparently i missed you in ontario, so feel free to drop that little piece of mail in a post office box near you!
much love,
amanda
Hahaha! You gave me a good laugh, Yell! I missed this update somehow. Looking forward to seeing you this morning!
it sure is good to know that these are games and that we love the people who are playing them. but yes the comments are rather strange.
