clue!

tonight, the family played our new dvd clue board game. it rules. this was our second time playing so we finally got it figured out since it is a little more complex then the old one. dad and i are all about guessing the perpetrator immediately, along with the time and location. mom on the other hand likes to play it safe and she routinely summons the butler for guaranteed clues. george, being my father, has the exact same ridiculous streak in him that i do, and he began to get jealous of the animated butler. he didn't understand why mom always wanted to go to the butler. finally, the computer butler began to "go on break" and wouldn't give out any more clues but my mom kept trying to talk to the butler in hopes he would come back from break. my parents are very solid when it comes to computer logistics. eventually, dad guessed: barb and the butler, having an affair, in the study. classic on so many levels. and a little bit sweet too.
