Revival of the drawing game

The other day John Pomeroy and I engaged in a time honored tradition that I had neglected for too long...THE DRAWING GAME!! For those of you who may not know the rules it goes a little something like this: one person draws a squiggle, and the other person has to make something out of it. Then the other person squiggles, and so on ad infinitum. Its roots lie in the surrealist excercise "The Exquisite Corpes" but it was adapted for easy play by lazy kids, for those times you really need to check out...like PE, which is when it was taught to me. It is like the kegels of the creative muscle. The other person presents you with a problem, and you must draw your way out of it. Really expands the mind man.
