we then think \"outer space\".  When we think \"outer space\", we then think \"aliens\".  (Am I right?  You\'re shaking your head and agreeing with me, are you not?)  Anywho, all of these morphed into an alien moon landing.  Once aliens take over the moon, they\'ve seized control.  They immediately started beaming up what suburbanites absolutely can\'t live with out:  our cars.  (Your iPhone and chocolate were next on the list, sister.  Aren\'t you relieved that it was only a dream?  Life without facebook would be a NIGHTMARE!)<em>\r\n</em>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008000;

entering <strong><a href=\"http://ignitephoenix.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Ignite Phoenix</a></strong>.  Remember these from when we were kids?  Back then, the final \"reveal\" was usually they guy/girl you were going to marry.  Now that we\'re older and wiser, the adult version is a lot more fun.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWell...not <em>that </em>kind of adult version, although now that I think of it...If you and your honey have fallen into a rut, perhaps an Adult You-Know-What Starter could make for a hot summer night.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nBack to Ignite Phoenix and PG Conversation Starters...\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThey were designed by the brilliant folks at <strong><a href=\"http://www.splintercreative.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Splinter Creative</a></strong> as a combination program/game for audience members to play.  Yes, this meant that you were to interact with fellow audience members aka total strangers.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nBut when you\'re someone like me sitting next to someone like <strong><a href=\"http://www.scribedevil.com/blog/\" target=\"_blank\">Matt</a></strong>, you start yakking away about everything under the sun, moon, and stars and forget about the game.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSo I kept my Conversation Starter for a rainy day.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nBut since there is no rain in sight in my currently hotter-than-hell city, I brought it into work to surprise the troops.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nI arrived at people\'s cubes unannounced and did not ask if they wanted to play.  It\'s always a given that when I show up with my next \"thing\", my colleagues humor me with the anticipation of a few laughs.  Often, they are laughing <em>at </em>me, but I\'m o.k. with that.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n**********\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>Playmate #1:  Anonymous aka \"Hollywood\". </strong></span> Her face lit up when I presented the game.  She has a toddler at home, so her inner child is fully present.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>Revealing Question:</strong></span> What\'s the silliest thing you\'ve ever done?\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>Answer:</strong></span> When Hollywood was a teenage girl, she was exceptionally dramatic.  In the midst of a tumultuous boyfriend episode, Hollywood threw herself onto the hood of his car when boyfriend tried to leave.  And she stayed there while he drove around the block.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWhat makes this even funnier is that Hollywood is cool as a cuke in her adult life.  My nickname for her stems from her glamorous appearance, not her personality.  She is by no means a diva; she merely looks like one in her ginormous sunglasses.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n**********\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Playmate #2:  Little Michelle (my recent <a
