Hokay, so.
My father and I invited some friends out for the fourth.
We barbequed, despite the rain, drank and were generally merry.
The only reason I post this, is to document the tragica(ly funny) events of the game we played later on....
Cranium. For the uninformed, it's kind of like charades and trivial pursuit all rolled up into one. Everyone has a partner, and they draw from different decks of cards. Some of which make you sing, or hum, some that make you draw, and others that make you act. All to the point that your partner is supposed to be able to guess what you are talking/drawing/miming about.
Everyone paired up, and it so happened that my father and fiance (Justin) were partners.
On their very first card, dad had to immitate Captain Hook (from Peter Pan), without mentioning people or places.
First thing he did, was the Hook-hand, then proceed to yarr about, damning children who refused to grow up, and ticking.
The entertaining part, was Justin.
"Barbossa!"
"Is it Barbossa?"
"Ummmmm"
"Captain Barbossa?"
I've warped his poor brain.
Eventually he got it right....
But seriously. I've infected him with my Barbossa love. Which is a bit weird.
