Charades

I went to the store to buy some lighter fluid for the grill we bought a few days ago. We've been pining for a good burger (American food) since we've got here and last week my roomate (Ben) bought a grill. He also bought some charcoal at that time, and yesterday we bought a slew of hamburger meat hoping to make some patties.

At the store I was received by 3 workers who eagerly tried to play a game of charades with me, and the topic was lighter-fluid.

If you have children, and you want them to be world travelers be sure to play charades with them as much as possible -- as this will ensure their life success. Moreover, if you want them to truly succeed, put them on the team in which their partners are terrible at the game. If you do such, your kids will be looked to in any situation.

At a restaurant, if you want to order Sweet and Sour pork, you won't look for the person who is fluent in the local language, you will want the person who can act it out in the best possible way.
Back to my story of getting lighter-fluid -- I was unsuccessful. It wasn't that my game was off, it was more a matter of they didn't carry lighter-fluid.
