Stream 8 - Ball

Ok yeah so got to write got to start to write an essay on silas marner it’s going to be great funny how all the essays end up arguing the same thing is that me or them I don’t know anyway had the most excellent idea for a game its not called football or basketball or anything it’s taken from a conversation sprung from some guy’s jacket that said korfball and that apparently was basketball and netball combined by Dutchmen to no particular effect anyway so I thought why done you just have a game called ball. Amazing, just think of it, it would be like two teams of ten an amphitheatre and a ball. No rules. No objective. Say Half and Hour for each Half, or maybe several weeks whatever. What a wonderfully existential game that would be I mean seriously it would be hilarious and fascinating you could select the people it would be like having a little life in miniature, so confusing for the people just cast into the arena with no initiation before baying crows and there’s this ball in the middle and this other team and then they’ve got their team mates who they barely know and you just say right, play, live, you know, and they make it up as they go along, and the brilliant thing is you would then be able to see how life develops, obviously they’d be tainted or affected by their previous lives in how they dealt momentarily with that little one but on the whole you’d hope to perceive how rules get made and how an aim would rise out of aimlessness, because people need that they’d get bored, so funny, just like morals and god. Fun.
