I stopped and asked how much she charged for her flowers. Holding out a bunch, she answered, "If it's just for somebody you're giving them to, it's five cents, but if it's for somebody you like it's ten cents, but if it's for somebody you . . ." At that point, I produced a quarter and said, "I'm sold. What can I buy for this?" Without hesitation, she handed me the whole bunch and accepted the quarter. But before heading for the candy store, she looked up, smiled and said, "It's nice to sell my flowers to someone who is going to give them to somebody he loves."

The other players can ask 20 questions. The questions have to be phrased so that the answer is yes or no. Now you can play against the computer. Think of something and the computer will ask you a series of questions. I thought of worm and it guessed correctly in 19 tries! I then tried baseball and it guessed in 18 tries. Try it out--it's fun!
