1. Not even Twister.
But perhaps Hungry Hungry Hippos.

8. We actually still have that game. My youngest is 15 now.
At this point, I'm saving it for grandkids. Same thing with Ring Around the Nosey - face masks with elephant trunks that you use to pick up rings. Great games for young kids - terrible for adults.

6. LOL!
Okay, I stop playing farmville with him, because his lawn is always tidy mowed. Mafia Wars then! Hey, I have an Italian name. He can't beat that.

He comes with a scythe to a gun show? :rofl:

7. Fuck that. My three daughters can all slaughter me at chess - AND I'M DAMN GOOD AT IT!
That will teach ME to learn them thar youngins a game.

I can still destroy anybody in Othello - well, other than the occasional game my wife wins. Nobody else can.

10. Well then Life would apply those rules back and do even better.

However I don't bother playing games with a defeated foe.

I do like the scenes in this movie though

The Sting

Many might notice that Jack is one more then 10, being 11.
Maybe in reference to spinal tap clip.
Or maybe won by one, I like that thought on it also.
Or possible the number 3 in binary
