Friday Cake

October 3, 2008

yesterday i asked you all to pick what you’d like to do today here at my place. i gave 3 options.

fill in friday, story cloud and “have you ever…?”.

mr. hoverfrog decided he would rebel, so he picked “Option 4 – CAKE” 😕 hov? there was no option 4-cake.

then all the little sheep followed hover and wanted option 4 too!

eventually, carl came through and shared a great game that we shall play today.

long live carl!

(it’s late. im sorry)

i took the liberty of just copying carl’s comment that explains todays friday fun. here we go….

Start with a word like “cake” the next person can only change one letter to make a different word like: cake would become cape. cape would be come cope… and so on. No adding letters to the word, only changing letters. Four letter words work best. And try not to repeat a word or go backwards.

so our word today is…

CAKE

    OOh Ooh, one of the benefits of living in the GMT+1 timezone, is that I get to be first! WOO HOO… ok, so its really no big deal, but at least I get to monologue a bit before writing my four letter word… he he he

    Well, at least at this point, it is not difficult at all.

    I might be confused, but it seems like some people are changing more than just one letter? Are you supposed change the order of letters too? Or just REPLACE one letter?

  94. October 3, 2008 8:09 am

    Holy Crap. It’s 11 am eastern and you already have 93 variations…

    You should get an award or something!
