You know that game you played as a kid, we called it 'gossip'?
Somebody started with a line and whispered to person next to them and then that person whispered what they thought was said
to the next person, and so on, until it got to the last person in the circle. Then the last person told out loud, what they heard
and many times, things got changed in the exchange
and became much funnier than the original message.
I have noticed at times, how funny it is, when someone replies to me, and I go from email to the reply, and read, and then the person that comes after that, is either replying to the 'poster', or someone else,
but it sounds very funny at the moment I read it.
I thought it would be fun to say a line, and have someone go next and add a line, either relative to that information or just something they thing would be funny, added to it...and keep it going, to see where the story twists and winds to. I'll start...

Long ago, in a far away land, a young girl and her brother, heard a new word; the grown ups were saying, "quilt"....

They whispered together trying to figure out if it was a nice word or a bad word, after all it wasn't a 4 letter word

They thought maybe it meant someone was sick as mom always went someplace else to "quilt".
