Table Topics Game, Conversation Starters

Straight out of a Monty Python skit, the Table Topics game gives you & your pals a little nudge into the conversation realm. 

Run out of things to talk about?  Why just open up Table Topics, pull out a card & get to talkin’.  The game features a series of cards with questions ranging from money to marriage to death to salesmen. 

I’m thinking that for $30 I can grab a newspaper or Nietzsche & have myself a ball of interesting & thought-provoking questions.  Maybe I should set up a phone line so you can call me when you need to have suggestions for conversations….
