Gomes are games that you make up on the fly.   I find these are as fun if not more than most regular games.  Here’s one you can try.  I call it “No Light Special on Isle 5.”

Instructions:

Go to WalMart
Blindfold your friend
Pick a product, any product.  (preferably one that isn’t near by)
Send your friend off to get the product
Start a timer
*Refrain as much as possible from verbally guiding your friend (Hot and Cold is okay)
When he finds the product, stop the timer.
Calculate the total cost of broken items.
Add the total cost to the total time.  (I don’t know how to do that either)
Now switch roles, and start over.

*The real fun here is watching your friend touch stuff.  And people.

Note:  Don’t be afraid of WalmMart employees.  I’ve found most of them are eager spectators.

Any other Gomes I need to know about?

    What’s up, man!? I just heard (belatedly) that you and Tyler were emcees for Catalyst West Coast. How fun! Sounds like things are going well for you. Keep up the creativity, and I’ll pray for you as often as I think about you!
