Friday Fling #267 for January 17th 2014<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now that we’re a week away from the dead middle of winter,<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

most of us are spending a lot more time indoors.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

And a lot of us spend some leisure time playing games.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Board games. Card games. Games of chance. Video games. And such.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

That is <\/font>our theme this week: <\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

write something about a favorite indoor game or games.<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Ahem yes even games people play.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

No particular format recommended this week,<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

although if you want to take this opportunity<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

to try <\/font>a Twaddle<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

and write amusingly about your favorite indoor game(s)<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

that would be fine.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

This was a new format invented this week:<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

twelve lines,<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

ABAB rhyme,<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

descending number of syllables from 12 to 1 in each line,<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

with some sort of refrain used to break up the 12 lines into three stanzas.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Not easy, but a fun additional challenge if you are so inclined.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Be sure to save some time to read and comment gamely<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

on your fellow Pals’ gamesmanship writes.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Then go enjoy a weekend, perhaps with an indoor game or two.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

But just be sure to shower or bathe first<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

so other player(s) do not find you gamey!<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
