Tim, in this case I did list three guitar players (please note that I do not always simply list three people who share the same vocation or the same first name, as you have done consistently in your last several posts). However, I went beyond just listing three guitar players, and this is the key. My goal was actually to have the third guy playing a four-necked guitar (combining Dickerson's two and Maphis' two), but when I came across the Nielsen photo with five necks, I was satisfied with that. I'm not claiming that post as any kind of masterpiece, but I tried to be creative. I used some imagination. Instead of choosing to list three astronauts. This is the point I'm trying to make. Use your imagination. Improvise. Have fun with it. And again, if you (or anyone) desire any explanations about what people are posting here, it's always been okay to go ahead and ask.

You're still missing my point, Tim. It IS just a game. It's not an "issue" for me, I'm just trying to help you understand how to play, so you (and those who read your posts) can have more fun with it. You say "I have been doing that". I'm not sure what "that" refers to. As I said, you're listing three of something (ballet dancers, talk show hosts, trumpeters, children's authors, etc etc etc). Nothing really "wrong" with doing that on occasion, but you're doing it every time (and you did that in your first rodeo at Jazz Corner too, I just never tried to point out that you weren't playing the game as steve(thelil) designed it). There's no creativity involved in naming three ballet dancers. If I had folllowed your post with three more random names of ballet dancers, would you (or anyone) have smiled, or said "Ah, interesting", or felt any joy at all? I mean, we can follow the old Kevin Meaney schtick and take turns naming all the vegetables, or sing the alphabet, but that's kind of not what this is about. Maybe you're just not seeing the creativity that others are engaging in? I'm really just trying to help. Sincerely.

Ah, I guess I may have made an erroneous assumption about what l p was asking (thought he may have posted the wrong timing). I don't hear 3:41 to 4:08 so much as a "theme", just a bass line (which continues into "Cheryl"). I can join Larry and Eddie Duchin.

Tim, again, the idea of the game is to be creative. Use your imagination. Listing three ballet dancers or three trumpeters or three talk show hosts or three children's authors, or three people named James (etc etc) is not using your imagination. Once in awhile it's fine (I guess), but you're doing this over and over. Not trying to pick on you or chase you away, but the game is supposed to be creative and fun, and you're not quite grasping the idea yet. Look at what others are doing, and come up with some ideas of your own. If you're puzzled about what others are doing, just ask- it's cool (in fact, there used to be a related Q&A thread back in the early years of the game here).
