"What would you like to talk about?"

I was one-upped by Miss M's Friend the other day. I pronounced the Dinner Party Game finished. He countered with a question, "How can we be finished when our guests haven't had any conversations?"

Right he was! How can you have people such as we all invited around a table and then not allow them to converse?

Silly me. 

And so... . We have the basic framework of how the Conversation Game will go, we're just working on the Game Board logistics.

To begin...


One person at the Head of each Table will say something. The two people seated next to the initial speaker will utter responses. Responses will thus flow down the Tables' two sides.

Responses must be cited, but there is great latitude-- for example, if you wrote the dialog/lyrics, you said it.

We begin with two seeds.

At Table 1:



 Harper Lee (Daughter C) and George Carlin (Miss M's Friend) need to respond.

[waiting for the source]

At Table 2:





William Shatner (Kat) and Phillip K. Dick (Tony) need to respond.

    1. Beautiful! Do you have a source? Or the context if it came from To Kill a Mockingbird?

  3. Dick, "Has perspiration odor taken you out of the swim? Ten-day Ubik deodorant spray or Ubik roll-on ends worry of offending, brings you back where the happening is. Safe when use as directed in a conscientious program of body hygiene."
