No we are NOT out of numbers yet! There are a LOT of twos left. A LOT. Especially in the story. Also I think a five is left, and maybe a 12, and some numbers up in the 60s--90s, maybe more. What I ought to do is go back through the thread and list all the twos that we have done already, so we can know for sure what has been done.

But till that is completed here is the next assignment in this S L O W moving but still fun (to me) game:

Name at least 6 instances that variant of the number 1 comes up in the lake scene, book and/or movie.

From story and movie, Ennis re job:

"I can't quit this one."

I'm suddenly feeling fresh appreciation that there are actually other people, scattered around the world, who want to play micro-detailed games about BBM, and that we have actually found each other.

Love and hug, Clarissa

Here's mine, the most obvious:

"I did once."

 So I mis-counted, it's 7 instances of a variant of  the number 1. (in the lake scene). Four down, three to go.

Sorry to be greedy, but I have one with two in one sentence and I'm a gonna do it.  From the story:

"Try this one," said Jack, "and I'll say it just one time."


Thanks for your kind words, DeeDee.  I'm glad you're here too!
