If you have never played Apples to Apples you should give it a shot, it is a lot of fun.  I played tonight with Ruth and her family.  It has been quite a long time since I have had this kind of fun with a game, and it has certainly been quite a while since I have had such a good laugh.  Here is what I am tonight (in order by rounds): Naïve Loud Classic Sultry Worldly Industrious Creative Tame Saintly Exquisite European Hot Unusual Violent...
