New Game Plan


1. Is it harder to be a pitcher or a running back?


2. Name the best TV theme song of all time.


3. Would you rather get a $500 check or $1,000 in loose pennies?


While driving home today, I was listening to our local talk radio show. The host was discussing a book and the author was a guest on the show.

The book is called "Barguments". It is a compilation of questions - with no definite answer - but rather matters of opinion. These questions are best asked in a bar - hence the name Barguments - after consuming about 3 beers.

I'm suggesting this as our next family reunion game - really a debate - with beer or wine along with it - either one.

Take a look at the website. Click on the circle in the upper left corner and you'll see some of the questions up for discussion. It looks very much like something that could turn into some real hoopin' and hollerin' - as the Barr family tends to do very nicely.

My personal Bargument question:
If the Barrs had moved from Detroit to Hoboken NJ instead of Shreveport, would we all still be as comical as we are now?

I like the name of this game...and the accompaniments. Already have one question thought up for our next time together.

I would say it's not where we moved but that B gene that makes us comical. I guess Hoboken wouldn't have been too bad a place. It would have just been an across the river jaunt to my favorite city--NY.
