| Probaby the funniest thing out of the three hour drive (aside from the Universe story) was how we fooled everyone in the van that we were telepathic. Me and Hallie were totally prepared to dumbstrike everyone in the van. We had secret codes for each word. Such as, scratching my chin means; funky monkey. Or tugging on my pants means; history. And making exaggeratious faces of me getting a psychic connection from Hallie is just code for; Mrs.Templeton (who was our history teacher in the 8th grade.) So the first (and easiest) person we tried to fool was Michael McComas. It was like taking candy from a baby. I'd say the word to Micheal secretly, so Hallie wouldnt hear. Then, we did our usual codes. Michael totally bought it!! "How do you guys do that?? Do it again! Another word!" And that.... was when we were trapped. We had to come up with brand new words in order to make Michael believe. And that was when me and Hallie created the genious idea of pointing something out with our elbow, nose, toe, sock, or foot. So if the word was pencil, we would simplly place our foot on a pencil that was laying around in the van, without Michael noticing. Yet it was so obvious that any nimbskull would have guessed. Oh, but not Michael. He was still stumped. After many many many rounds of the game... he FINALLY suggested that he picks the topic for the word. So he said, "The next word you pick will have to do with games." So I picked the game to be Monopoly and quietly whispered it in Michael's ear so Hallie wouldnt hear. We were quite stuck here...but then we remembered what an oblivious idiot Michael was. So I pretended to be in extreme psychic pain as I got a vision from Hallie. I went, "aaaahh no aaaahhhhh ahhhhhhh ahhhhhh ahh oww oh no ahh the pain" and in between one of my worthless wails, I quickly added a "monolopy". So it sounded "aaaaaah oh aahh nooo monopoly ahhhhh no ahhhhhhh!!!!" Hallie understood that the game was monopoly. But we feared that maybe Michael found out. But the unaware kid didnt even know. He just sat there stuped by my pain. And then Hallie said, "I know what the word is!! It is... Monopoly!". And Michael sat there and applauded. Poor kid.... he needs a hearing aid and glasses. *sigh* Well, after stupyfying one kid, we found thousands of other idiots in Iowa to trick. We amazed thousands of idiots and had them babbling. And the monopoly trick worked every time... whether the topic was sports, cars, animals or music. Poor poor Iowan idiots... |
