A Thanksgiving full of games

I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday this year. I know my Thanksgiving was filled with abundant food and lots of laughter, thanks to the game that Janell shared with us. It's called telephone pictionary and it goes something like this:

1. Every player takes a piece of paper and writes a sentence at the top. Then every player passes the sheet to their left
2. The next person reads the sentence to themselves and draws a picture of the sentence below
3. Then every player folds over their piece of paper so only their drawing is visible and passes
4. The next receiving person examines the picture and writes a sentence describing it below the picture
5. Then every player folds over their piece of paper so only their sentence is visible and passes it to their left
6. Continue until you get your paper back

As you can imagine, hilarity ensued. Here are some of the funnier progressions:

Hilarity did ensue, though I find it rather interesting that Lisa chose not to display any of her own artistry. Be forewarned, any of you with questionably ugly eyes, according to the person who wrote in blue ink, you're okay to shoot! But fear not, for disco balls and lightbulbs will bring you back from the dead! However, curses be upon you if you drive to Las Vegas, for you will end up with LOBSTER CLAWS! Oh, look at that, that was Lisa who wrote all those things!

Hilarity is only too fitting a descriptor. Now my co-workers think I'm loony.

I would like to clarify to everyone that this game has nothing to do with Telephones, and to name a confusing, obscure game after the name of a solid reliable communication technology is bordering on libel. Telephone company attorneys are looking into this.
