My son and I play this one often. Here's how it works. A topic is picked and then we ping pong our suggestions from A to Z.
The posts here might look like this:
topic-toys:
A-alligator (stuffed)
<next post>
B-ball
<next post>
C-chalk
etc.
The person who offers an answer for Z chooses the next topic and offers an answer for letter A.

authors: J- Johnson & Johnson (what were the first names of those sex writers?) Perhaps you are thinking of Masters & Johnson (aka William and Virginia)? Johnson & Johnson are the folks who make baby powder. I dunno, maybe Masters & Johnson had something to say about that, too.

Yes, it was Masters & Johnson, but at least one of the authors had a J starting the last name. Whew! L- LaCroix, Mary

O - Orwell George.
Is that allowed? It wasn't his real name but it was the one that became famous. Anybody ever heard of Eric Blair?
I've just thought. As there is only 26 letters in the alphabet, the list of authors can't go on to a new page!
