I haven't seen a kid with a pocket full of marbles since I was a kid with marbles. We made a ring in the dirt. Each player put in some marbles. Then we would use a thumb to send a marble, hoping to knock some out of the ring. You kept the ones you knocked out. We always had a marble called our "best shooter." Other times we played follow the leader. Just two marbles chasing each other until they connected. The one connecting kept the other one's marble. I got robbed of my marbles by a big kid several blocks from home. He was obviously a poor shooter who couldn't win any games.
I started a thread here for Montanna, who was a well liked member of A2K at one time. It's a fundraising thread. Of the hundreds online who know her just three people on here and facebook contributed. Sad sad.
