I just started reading James Carville’s book, “Had Enough?…” and found this great joke. Continue reading
Run For Your Life, Candyman!
Back in August I picked up Run for your Life, Candyman!, a hilarious parody of the children’s game, Candyland. We’ve had fun playing it, but we went through the pad of candyman status sheets already. Since the publisher has explicitly … Continue reading
