Can you suggest a good card game for couples?
Can you suggest a good simple card game for my wife and I to play on a lazy rainy or snowy night? We have tried Uno, but we got tired of that fairly quickly. We are looking for a simple card game that is easy to play and that is fun for two. Do you have any suggestions?
Taboo and Dirty Minds are board games. We are looking for a card game. My wife is too bashful to play strip poker. Are there any other ideas?

Why does the government in The Hunger Game force people to fight?
I haven't read the book and this is why: When people recommend this book to me, I just don't understand why the government would force people to kill others. Do they do it to make people fear them? If so, why don't the people rise up and take it down? So, I guess I'm saying if the book has a good reason for it, I'll give it a try. Thanks for your answers.
The children are forced to fight in the Hunger Games by the Capitol to show it's citizens that the Capitol is all-powerful. They're saying, "We can make your children kill each other, and there's nothing you can do about it." And the citizens of Panem CAN'T do anything about it because they don't have the means to. They are so repressed that the entire country (even the "favored" Districts, 1, 2, and 4) lives in a constant state of poverty and starvation. They are not properly educated beyond what is needed to survive in their District (Katniss says that everything she learns in school is related to coal, the industry produced by her District). They have no access to anything that could be used to incite rebellion - not even words, as the cruel Peacekeepers are instructed to keep opinions quiet and silence anyone who dares to say anything against the Capitol.
After what happened to the former District 13, completely destroyed after they started a rebellion a mere seventy-five years ago (so it's very fresh in the minds of the citizens), most people simply don't have the guts needed to rebel. They are down-trodden and have lost the hope and will needed to make the country better. And they are afraid. The Capitol controls their entire lives, and the Capitol is capable of rigging the supposedly "random" Reaping, when the children are chosen for the Hunger Games. If you do anything against the Capitol and the Capitol finds out about it, which they will, your child is guarenteed to be a tribute in the next Games. What parent would do anything to give that fate to their child?
If you give the book a chance, I'm sure you will understand it. If I remember correctly, the situation that the citizens of Panem live in is explained in the very first chapter. 
It's a great book if you just give it a chance.

When was the last time you purchased a set of playing cards? What was it and where did you get it?
I play card games on the computer, but when I was younger I used to play with my family using actual playing cards. I just got curious if people still play cards the good old way. I miss those days a lot.
Oh heck yeah....my family still plays cards. The last deck I bought was for my Daughter (she collects them) They were Simpson characters and I bought them on Ebay

Have you read any good books lately?
I have just finished two really excellent books- "Red Dragon" by Thomas Harris, and "The Catcher in the Rye", by J.D. Salinger. I am currently reading "The Mummy Congress" by Heather Pringle, and also, "Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe.
Red Dragon is excellent; read the other two in the series as well. You'll enjoy them if you liked Red Dragon.
Currently reading a Clive Barker novel called Abarat; it's ok but a little child-like in an immature way rather than fun, if you know what I mean.
I just read 'The Night Listener' by Armistead Maupin. Excellent book! The movie's coming out soon, but already it looks like they changed a lot.
A few books earlier, I read the last of the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. I loved his books growing up, but have lost interest over the last 5-10 years. But I'm happy to say, the Dark Tower books did not lose their oomph. In fact, I found the last book to be amazing!
