20 Answers

I taught Benjamin how to play 20-questions. When I was guessing, I'm pretty sure he kept forgetting what his thing was, and would after a while, just say, "Yay! You got it!" Yesterday, at breakfast, he said, "I know what we can do while we eat!" What, Benny? "We can play," dramatic pause, "20 answers!" I said OK. I'll think of something, and you guess. I'm ready. Now you ask me questions, and try to figure out what it is. "OK." Pause. "Um." After another pause, he asked, "What is it?"
