Hi Everyone!
Let's lighten the mood a bit with a game. The topic of this game is Careers. Each subsequent post in this topic should be a career that begins with the next letter in the sequence. I'll get us started.
Accountant
The next post should be a career that starts with the letter B.
Have fun! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Seasick Sailor?
...............................................................
To keep things interesting I am going to suggest that the ante goes up next round by going triple letter.
This can be done by adding a verb. Those playing then have to add the verb AND do the next letter open. So the next round will look something like this
ROWDY RANCHER RIDES
Prepositions and conjunction and other connectors like and, or, to, for, with, a, an, and so on are allowed of course.
When people stop playing or things become too silly I guess it will be GAME OVER!
Just a suggestion.
But for now it's back to what is what.

OKAY People, time coming soon to up the ante!
How about 4 letters, and now we have the adjective, the job title, the verb so what about the place ... of course we can add prepositions etc (joining words and all).
Hopefully we will all still play on - so I say
RRR
Rocking Raver Rumbas
and in the next round may add ...in Roxdale.
I think the fun is about to start!

(Somewhere in the world they speak XXX. They fill in forms, they write multiple-choice examinations, they cross out rough notes they no longer need, they X-dress, they find treasure by finding the X which marks the spot, they seal envelopes with a X, they do cross-stich, they go up and down escalators ... and so on)
The pronunciation is also a xs xs xs style and so you say the above in a translated form of English as 'Xsstatic Kisser Crosses')
You are smiling now hey? Good stuff!

Sorry guys, I posted in the middle of this - OH DRAT!
New game says four CAPITALS, can use prepositions and conjunctions etc., next word is a place or country name with a connector so that those who follow have to keep adding until we can't add anymore.
When this happens, I suggest that the letter is deleted from the game alphabet until the LAST PERSON with the LAST letter WINS THE GAME and gets the Bellaonline Game-Players Cup!
Okay ... you're on!

Able Airman Ascends (in) Alaska (so that he)
Got to fill out the above now ... any words will do as long as it/they start/s with the letter being played. Only connectors can differ. Please suggest when you think a letter should be deleted from the alphabet for the sake of the game.
P S Thanks Angela for having started this game - I have had fun playing it.
PPS This is called 'making up the rules as you go along!' I just realised that we have to return to this AAAA entry to carry on playing so remember the date guys. ALSO surely it will be okay if we repeat other entries before this, whether or not we posted them? Thanks ... if you have ideas too please add them.
Thanks Beetle, will not post for a while so that cross posting stops - it's taking longer to think of entries! Like it I do.

Lestie, you would have to be quite extremely unbelievably old to have come across a gleeman. In medieval times a gleeman was a wandering minstrel. There haven't been any for several hundred years, I believe.

Hey Mona,
Maybe we do have modern versions of wandering Gleemen ... or Gleepersons ... or Gleemaidens ...
What about the international travels of artists and artistes? I wonder if their renditions of old songs, raps and in general the social commentary that comes through in the lyrics of music and all and all could be construed as Gleemanry in Action?
Smile now I hope.
So back to the alphabet career game... OOOO

I had not planned on leaving my boyfriend of 4 years to start over in June of this year, but it was either that or kill him or myself/lol. Anyway, work with me ladies. Sandra & Beetle thank you SO MUCH for stopping in and joining us - much APPRECIATED. Okay, now back to the game I am trying to learn/lol. PPPP Purple Puppet is Painting in Paris Next: QQQQ (LOL, so glad I don't have those this time around. Yikes!)

Hey Angela,
Mona is so right, I wouldn't bother to ask for a smile from someone I didn't care about!
Didn't mean to offend, I am just a really good nag! Now the thing is to nag myself to get some important stuff done!
Mona, was going to write Quebec but then went for the Q-BA one not knowing if you even spell it thus - just wrote it as I hear it. Maybe we could stretch a point and spell it Kwant... for the next K entry? No I think not. It's only a game as they say where rules are to be broken and why not I ask? Smile now.
Cheers

Lestie, hmmm. Kuantanamo... or Kwantanamo, somewhere in Asia maybe?
The place is Guantanamo. But the Spaniards pronounce the G so softly, I hear it as a W, so maybe if you were stuck on a W, you could make it Wuantanamo. Which reminds me of the name Juan which also sounds to me like a W, so reversing it maybe Juantanomo.
Yeah, like it, a name with many possibilities for a game. (But I'm glad I'm not there. Though I love the song "Guantanamera".)
PS Did you know that 'w' is a vowel in Welsh?

You two are special, I am on the floor giggling as I read your posts. No offense was taken, life is too short for all that. And yes, I feel special that you both made time to "pick" on me - thank you, I think LOL, I totally forgot my letters. Let me submit then edit = nothing like those senior moments WWWWW - when did you guys add an extra letter. Yikes!!! Okay, heading to the internet to cheat - yep, being honest. Got Wacko from there, the rest is my contribution. One thing I can say, this game is keeping my 54 year old brain cells alive...

Hi There all,
'Here I are' as my dear departed used to say instead of 'Honey, I'm hOme'
Gee Beetle that was some goody and for ZZZZZZZ!
I guess as you did Angela we can up our ante by going 5 to plus letters, I will try follow the formula now of two adjectives plus nouns verbs and place names as long as the sentence makes some sense even if it makes us laugh?
Oh why not? Let's try see how far we get...this is now an exercise in alliteration of sorts! What happened to the plain career game ... EEK, it's has been hijacked!

Lesite, you wrote I will try follow the formula now of two adjectives plus nouns verbs and place names as long as the sentence makes some sense even if it makes us laugh? Especially it should make us laugh, as I have been doing reading these! (Re supercalli....[etc], you might have enjoyed being a fly on the wall the day I was teaching a group of 13-year-olds in an English language support class to say that. A good time was had by all!) But on with the letter C.... Candidly curious caretaker clears out cloakrooms in colorful Cartagena Next: DDDDD or more!

Okay someone else's chance to go for EEEEEEE plus please...
P S Mona, Only one conjunction in your C entry - the Gold Star Fairy told me to give you one without hesitation as it made sense too and was smart thinking.
When I was at baby school Stars were issued for grades of work and motivation I suppose and we would get chockies and special mention at assembly for the most gold etc. The Grades were (forgotten now but something like) Green star Good, Red Star for trying Hard so very well done, Yellow star Very Good and Gold excellent.
Blue would be for got to try harder and Black was for not doing your homework, or being cheeky or stuff like that ... and three blacks meant a detention and classroom duty of something arbitrary like sweeping the floor or tidying the library books (while classmates looked on in silence). Just getting black stars was worse than the sweeping I tell you! I collected them only once and once was enough to make me 'respect' my elders. See I used to be a bit cheeky at the wrong times. I was too much of a swot not to do homework!
Ah what great days those school days were, how we played and what a joy it was to learn something new that really struck home. Alas poor Yorick, I remember them well.
Cheers now

Yikes, I see our "duo" came back and boy did you make a comeback. Okay, I spent the night in the emergency room, thank goodness for my daughter who stayed. We got there at 6:30pm on Friday, got home at 1:30am Saturday. Anyway, I am going to try my best to play in some form. Not sure I can figure out all the rules, but hey - I am thoroughly enjoying reading the posts. I know Beetle does not visit the forum on the weekends as he does have a personal life/lol and the little lady needs some time with him. So expect him back to be a REAL player on Monday. So until then, just "ignore" what I put down and know I just want to play too So my letter is E! Oh by the way, it was Beetle that added all those letter/lol. I was good at 5... So if okay with the "duo" (I know Beetle does not care, just goes with the flow and has fun) - let me do 5 this time. When I feel better, I will try for more letters and be more aware of the rules. Thanks E legant E skimo E scaped from E urope with E ggs as E yeballs Next: F in what form the next person wants to do it. Just have FUN!!! You choose the amount of letters you want to use as we do have some "experts" (our duo and Beetle) but I do want others at the same level as I am to feel comfortable playing if they want to. ENJOY everyone!!!!

Hi Angela.
Hope you are okay and it is great you want to keep playing in the thread you started!? And of course the game has sort of morphed into using as many of 'your' letters to make as long a sentence with the fewest joining words.
BUT as zany as it is, the sentence should make sense. Your last entry was a really funny one - I have this very funny picture in my mind of Eskimos in Europe running around with eggs for eyes.
Being longer bigger smarter brighter zanier etc does not make it BETTER. Less is more too, ask any architect or weightloss chaser ... now there is a career title we have not used yet! Maybe we can use it this time for the person who hits the double yous (WWWWW)?
I will wait for others to join in and I hope they do and in the meantime I will put on my 'thinking cap'
NEXT :

LOL, no I did not start it - just dug it out of the COLD FILE. Apparently one of the old Unemployment Editors (Janet) had started 11/29/06. Yep, game will be 6 years old this 11/29. Wow! Older than the Walking Forum one I know that Beetle likes to play with Rosie. I remember it from when I use to be the Walking Editor before resigning - no time.... Yes, let us go with the flow and have some fun and giggles and yes, I am finally feeling myself again. Not one to be in anyone's emergency room or doctor's office. Yikes!!! Learn't my lesson - do what I can EACH day, AVOID drama = peace That was my FIRST and LAST anxiety attack. Use to read about them or see it on TV - no fun at all. But you have to figure out what "triggers" them or live on medication. The emergency room doctor had offered me some, but took her up on only ONE pill to get my migraine under control. I am a big baby when it comes to pain, that is why I only had ONE child/lol. Okay, let me see what damage I can do with the game I guess my letter is I. Iceland's Ice-hockey player didnot know how to Ice skate and needed Ibuprofen for his swollen Index finger while he hid in his IglooNext: J in whatever form the next player wants to do. Any amount of letters and any rules they want to follow. ENJOY

Angela,

Lestie,

Oh My Gosh Sandra, I am imagining a multi-tasking Rex dancing and typing at the same time - got to be a Disney first!
Campaign speeches? Politicians are the same all over the world and they say the same things again and again and again - only to a newly awakened market at one end as the older cynics fall out of the game. Or that is my experience anyway. Same old promises that get forgotten until they are hauled out for the next election...
But I love that Americans can say I am a Democrat! I am a Republican! (note the alphabetical order!) In other countries and especially here in S A, you do not tell who you vote for -and many a guess is assumption and just that, a guess and most generally wrong at that.
Okay, back to what is really important now - what can we do with UUUUU+?

Hi Sandra:
As you see, I have gone back to the original game but feel free to continue to play the way you have. I am not the expert that the others are. Also, congrats on starting your own game in the Investing Forum and glad to see you have such good response. I glanced at it, but Yikes - have no clue. So sorry for not playing.

Obeliscolychny!!! Wow. Angela, I'm done in by this word, which I'd never seen before. If I could pronounce, I could slip into a conversation. But I do know about xenobiology, which we usually call astrobiology as a fairly inclusive term that includes the biology, chemistry, geology, etc involved in developing theories of the origin of life on Earth and the search for it elsewhere. And there is, of course, the story about a xanthocomic xylophone-playing xenobiologist who x-rayed xeric xanthium and .... um, well, I forget how it ended!

Hello all and all,
Wow Sandra that last W entry was a really good one, made absolute sense in one sentence AND without a conjunction ... just to be cheeky though, I might have changed the last words to "while wooing wistful wenches" ... to make is a tad more saucy and to give the two boys more to wrestle over!
There were so many good entries in this game as it were, but the two most elegant I would say were your W above and Mona's L Lady who "lamented lost love."
Still it was never meant to be a competition.
Say cheers now

Hi Angela,
Never went missing - just get busy in patches.The 'old' game ran its course I think so to let go is easy enough for me, no fuss or worries. Don't think I have the time right now to post the great entries you are posting, please carry on, I am learning lots! I have gotten myself involved and heading up a project to do with security and anti-crime and am up to my ears in research and presentations and paperwork and all and all,
Am out of mischief for sure and say cheers for the nonce!

LOL Sandra, LOVE it - girl, you are so talented. You will notice I deleted the "unusual" word part. But feel free to continue as you are part of the "Genius" team that Beetle, Mona & Lestie belong to. Me, just looking for some "simple" fun before I head back to my online Virtual Assisting biz. I know Beetle visits the games on this site for his work "break" - so I thought I would do the same. The only challenge is finding a game I can UNDERSTAND/lol. Then figure out how to play Angela,

DIRECTIONS FOR NEW PLAYERS: (1) Find a career that begins with your letter. (2) Post the description your way. (3) List the words you find within the career word you posted. (4) As a courtesy to help the next player - post the next letter.
*** I am one that pays attention to stuff and unless I am having a "senior" moment, between the last time I posted on this game and now - my directions seem to have been deleted from the last time I played. Okay, let us see if they stay this time on this post. If they disappear again, I guess it is time to hit the road again. Life has a way of letting you know when your "season" is over and I now pay attention. Everyone has something "unique" to contribute in life! When what I have to contribute is not acceptable, then it is time to make a move to my next stop. As long as this game is FUN for everyone including myself - I am here 100 percent. Okay, let us have some FUN ***
