Thought of variation for solitaire type jumping game. Use checker board & 64 pcs. of three different colors. Place checkers haphazardly. One or more checkers are removed (to be worked out). Players in turn jump as many as they can (orthogonally only or diagonally too to be worked out). Whenever a player wishes he can refuse his turn & say "Take it Away" and other player continues as long as he can. This player is penalized for all checkers left. Tentative value of checkers:- white - 1, red - 2, blue - 3. Penalties are 5 or 10 (to be worked out) times as high.

At party played game of breaking balloon between couples & the game of the player making up his own story by asking questions. (from "Playboy")
