CLUE

This is another fun board game that my sister and I used to play, we usually played it at our grandma's house.

If you've never played before it's a simple game.  Where you each pick a character and try to figure out the murderer, the weapon they used, and which room they were in.  I really can't remember exactly how to play, it's been YEARS!  I'll have to dig up the game, I think we might have it somewhere.  Anyway,  before you start playing you put in an envelope one card of a person, room, and weapon.  Then  when you make it to a room you just guess who did it.  For example,  Professor Plum, in the conservatory, with the rope.  And if anybody had those cards they'd lay them out and everybody would cross them off their lists.  Until you have all but one of each category crossed off.  Then when you know, you make your guess.  I'm thinking you have to go to a certain room to make your guess, but I'm really fuzzy at the details.

I'm going to tell a story about one ridiculously funny time that we played. We, my sister, cousin, and I, were upstairs at first we were playing hide and go seek, but it quickly got boring and we got in lots of trouble for running in the house.  My cousin found Clue and suggested that we play it.  We had a couple of successful rounds.  It was getting late and thought that we would have enough time for one more round.  We literally just got started.  I think we had the envelope put together and just distributed the cards, when my grandma yelled up the stairs that my dad was here,  then my cousin quickly made a guess and he was 100% right.  That made a long game quick, lol.

While We Are On The Subject of Power Rangers

I apologize for not doing a new blog for awhile.  It's been super busy here lately.

Anyway, I was just reminded why I didn't like Jason David Frank, Tommy, on power rangers.  I just listened to an interview that he did on No Pink Spandex, and does that boy not know when to shut up!  I'm sorry but  talking bad about Austin St. John every chance you get is really pathetic. The Power Rangers Debuted in 1993 and this particular interview was in 2010, I think it's time to move on Jason David Frank.  He spent close to 30 minutes talking horribly about ASJ, I'm at a lost of words.  Then again I don't believe much Jason David Frank says anymore. He claims to have invented the hand moves of the Turbo morph, but they used an almost identical one in Carranger (激走戦隊カーレンジャー)  I think I remember one time when he said that they didn't use any Japanese stock footage of the green ranger, because the green ranger dies.  WRONG!  I've seen all of Zyuranger and I can guarantee you that they used stock footage.


I'm sorry I know this isn't what I normally post about, but that really got under my skin this morning.  


NEXT POST:  a board game that my cousin always cheated in.  Do you need a clue?
