Jack would (whisper?) tell a short story ( or joke) to one of the guest. Each guest would say the story to another guest but in another language. When the story was told to the last member of the group they would tell Jack and the audience in English what they heard and most times the story was very different than it was first told Ed --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105) SEEN-BY: 50/22 103/705 104/119 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/305 153/7715 SEEN-BY: 154/10 30 50 110 700 218/700 220/20 90 221/1 6 226/18 30 SEEN-BY: 226/44 50 227/114 229/110 114 206 300 317 426 428 470 664 SEEN-BY: 229/700 705 240/1120 266/512 291/111 301/1 113 320/219 322/757 SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 256 1124 5858 712/848 902/26 2320/0 SEEN-BY: 2320/105 3634/12 5020/400 1042 8912 5054/30 5075/35 PATH: 2320/105 154/10 301/1 460/58 229/426 |
