I think I'm missing something here...I want to understand how this three name thing turned into 302 pages of boys night out. what's so fascinating about...

steve jobs

reggie workman

mc hammer

or should that be...brian longcar?

???

Yeah, I think you are missing something, Mr. porkerdavis (if that is in "fact" your real name!). namely that your first name of the three is supposed to connect/follow somehow with the last one of the previous post. You're not just supposed to pull three names out "of" the blue and just throw'em down like yesterday's lotto

ticket
s. That would be stupid.

So get it together and play right, or else I'll personally see to it that you never, and I do mean never, get called to deliver the invocation at a Hockaday soccer game again! :rmad::rmad::rmad::angry::angry::angry:

Since we've been joined recently by several new members, here's what I posted to begin this thread:

... who follow from the previous three.

This is a game I've enjoyed over at Jazz Corner (originally posted there by the one and only steve(thelil), and I figured it might be fun to start it up here. Basically, you just take the last of the three names posted, and post a related (see below) name, followed by two more. Just quote the last person's post, and post your three names in response.

There are various ways to transition from one name to the next. You can outright copy one of the names (first or last) and add a different (first or last) name to it, such as going from "Jim Alfredson" to "Jim Sangrey". You could even follow that with "Jim Dye" and/or "Jim R". Too much copying is boring, however, and too easy. It's far more interesting and fun to use your imagination. So, instead of going from "Jim Alfredson" to "Jim Sangrey", you might go to "Alfred E. Newman" instead (or just "Alfred", followed by "Batman", or "Adam West", or whatever). Or, take off from "son" instead of "Alfred" (Son Seals, for example).

You can also select something that rhymes (Tim, Slim, etc etc).

Another thing you can do is to jump to a different name based on a topic or idea. I recently did this a few times on the Jazz Corner thread, going from "Sandy Duncan" directly to "Yo Yo Ma", or from "Patsy Cline" to "Crazy Otto". As long as the connection isn't too obscure, this is a fun way to go. You can also stay with a "theme" for all three of your names, as in "Sonny Red", "Jesse White", "Vida Blue"; or "Oliver Stone", "Chris Rock", "Pebbles Flintstone".

Any combination of the above approaches is also fair game. I'm probably forgetting some other approaches, but use your imagination.

thanks. after I asked the question and mr.sangrey,

the masked pumpernickle, was kind enough to

enlighten, I went back to your original post

and boned up on where this pile of skulls

came from. the ramifications ewe have

conjured constitute considerable and

consumate inspirational motivations.

not a bad travel game neither.

thnx
