Okay, so here is the setting, it's a nice summer day and four friends (Ms. North, Mr. Easton, Ms. Southerly, and Mr. Westing) are having a cookout. The game is to craft the conversation between these individuals, using only quotes. The quotes can be from songs, movies, books, or anything else you can think of. The only rule is that you can't use the same quote twice and you can't use the same source twice in a row. Each post should follow this format:

Who is speaking [relevent action] (Who they are talking too)

"What they say"

(Where the quote is from)

I'll give an example to get things started...

Ms. North [coming out onto the porch and overhearing Mr. Westing telling Mr. Easton about his recent island vacation] (to Mr. Westing)

"You spent three days lying on the beach drinking rum?"

(Pirates of the Carribean: the Curse of the Black Peral)

(I think you need to be more specific with where you allow quotes from. Currently its way too broad.)

:off: Actually Warsor, the origional versions were restricted to song quotes and movie quotes respectively. Since both of those died out fairly quickly I thought something "more broad" might work better (hence the "New and Improved"). That doesn't mean that I don't appreciate your input, but check out the origionals sometime. You might find they're harder to play than you expect. (I did!)

Back to the game...

Mr Westing [with a wink at Ms Southerly](to Ms North, dismissively)

BtW, I'm thinking about taking this dialogue, editing it, and posting it as a story on linear lane. Any thoughts or objections?
