Spoons

so i am going to presume you guys are all like WTF? spoons? is this guy for real? well yeah i am :D
but i'm not talking about the spoons you eat cereal with or stir tea/coffee with (although they are involved with the game)
the rules

1) you are only allowed 4 cards in you hand
2)when you have a set of cards eg. KKKK or AAAA etc then you must grab a spoon from the middle.
3)the spoons have to be in the middle of the players like this
so basically what happens is you need 3 or more players for tis game, and you have one less spoon than the number of players (3 players = 2 spoons k?)
each player gets 4 card, and the dealer has the rest of the pack to the right of him/her.
to start the game the dealer must pick up a card and put an unwanted card down, to the left, thus keeping only 4 cards, the dealer keeps doing this to make the cards continuously go round the table/floor/where ever you are playing. the person to the left of the dealer then picks up the 1 card as soon as the dealer puts it down, then they put an unwanted card down, always keeping 4 in their hand. each player replicates this for the people next to them, always picking up from the right and putting down on the left.
when the deck of cards run out the last person will have created a sufficient stack of cards for the dealer to start picking them up.
when a person picks up 4 of the same card (KKKK,AAAA,JJJJ,QQQQ,10101010,9999,8888,7777,6666,5555,4444,3333,2222) then they have to grab a spoon from the middle of the table, they can do it slyly so people don't notice or rapid to create a mad rush, either way its good not to be the looser.

to replay the next dealer is the person to the left of the former dealer and they shuffle and deal the cards.

Childhood...

so this morning i was looking through some of my old stuff (Clearout) and i found an empty VHS box of Kenan and Kel (i do not know why it was empty) and i remembered how AWESOME it was! so i started looking for videos on youtube, i did this for about an hour (yes it is sad but i loved kenan and kel) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lTBUDBq8xw possibly the best, most quoted, bit of Kenan and Kel.

it made me think of what other shows from that era i watched and loved, Pinky and The Brain, Top Cat and South Park, i was introduced to South Park at a young age by my extremely responsible father xD, anyway i owned basically everything south parky that i could, i do not know how much money i had spent on the merchandise, i still have a cartman bobblehead on the top of my TV :D.

anyway i guess what i am trying to say is...
you don't know what the future can hold, but you can always love the past that you have made!

Gaddafi Special...

So Colonel Gaddafi hey?
Sound to me like he’s not doing his fair share for his country.
He thinks the PROTESTING people in his country are not protesting against him… I mean what’s up with that? Can he not see what they are protesting?
To be honest with you I think that he is more like Colonel Gaddaffy Duck!

Basically the Libyans have had enough of his wacky ways and want him out! And his response to that… Bomb them! Way to win over the people huh?
They have even had to cancel the Gran Prix because of the Protests, I am not a formula one fan myself but that must get on peoples nerves. Can he not tell when people are giving up on him? His KEY officials are ‘Jumping ship’, even the embassies in London have replaced the Libyan National flag with the pre-Gaddafi era flag. To me that would scream ‘Get out of there!’ if Gaddafi does not stop this madness soon then he will just be left with a barren of a country and no people to be in it.
This is not really what I would usually do but I saw some more of this on the news today and it really touched me.
I guess the moral of this is treat people how you would like to be treated yourself.
