HOW TO PLAY THE LOON GAME
November 6, 2011
Divide an even number of loons into two equal groups. Have each group line up along opposite walls in the foundry. Joining hands, one group advances shouting, “Henry is a Northerner”, then retreats in silence. The other group advances shouting, “He’s not. He’s not. Fiddlefaddle.” Then they, too, retreat. The game continues, turn and turn, until everyone is exhausted or more than three loons have become catatonic, whichever comes first.
