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.

thanks for reading :D

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!
