Dear Brigitte is a 1965 family-comedy starring James Stewart and directed by Henry Koster. Stewart stars as a college professor of a genius son, the precocious Erasmus (Bill Mumy). After using his skills for gambling at the horse track, Erasmus becomes infatuated with model and actress Brigitte Bardot (who plays herself in the film). Through his love letters, Erasmus is invited to France, and Stewart follows along.

Is the theme of Spring Fever too limiting?  To open to interpretation?  Has this game played itself out?  :'(

I didn't even know you guys had a long weekend, that would explain it, we had one last week.   We also seem to have lost two regular players.
