The JAG Office Memo Game -- Araninda, 17:09:32 02/10/10 Wed
Yes, at long last, a revival of the "JAG Office Memo” game that we used to play years ago here on the HB. For those of you unfamiliar with the game, here’s a brief explanation:
As you probably know, a standard office memo can take on a life of its own. It generates one or more replies. Then replies to the replies begin to follow. Soon memos are going back and forth in a wild round robin. Our JAG office memo game is the same. I am starting the memo below. The next poster replies in a memo format. Then each additional poster continues and builds on the story with another memo from a JAG character. We are not limiting the memos to any particular time in the series, so you can use any character, even those who didn’t actually work at JAG headquarters. Be as creative, witty or zany as you wish with your memos.
One more thing -- Please sign your board name. We didn’t use to do that with this game, but now I’m encouraging you to also give GRABBs for the best memos. I won’t know who to credit with a GRABB if I don’t have your board name. Everyone – help us keep the board alive and join in the fun!

Memo to: All JAG Staff. There is a 500-pound gorilla tied up in my office. How did this animal get here? Signed, Admiral A.J. Chegwidden (NT) -- Araninda, 17:11:21 02/10/10 Wed
  Sir, he keeps interfering with an office romance, and I was told to put him there so you could give him some much needed disclipline. Signed Gunny. (NT) -- Lee, 17:58:42 02/10/10 Wed
  Sir, I've checked all our systems and I think I've uncovered a link to a secret group called "TPTB", Signed Bud. (NT) -- Lurks, 18:07:47 02/10/10 Wed
Memo: Mac to Flyboy: What's up with the blue feathers all over your office? When I asked the staff about them, they said that they didn't know, but I would swear that I heard giggling coming from the stairwell..." (NT) -- Greta, 19:53:14 02/10/10 Wed
Memo: Flyboy to Mac: I was trying to find the perfect Valentine's Day gift for you and the giggling was Harriet and some of her Harmybroad friends . I really do hope you like what I've selected. (NT) -- Christa, 20:56:41 02/10/10 Wed
Memo - who ordered the bananas? Tiner (NT) -- usmgrad, 20:54:35 02/10/10 Wed
  GRABB! That's a good one, usmgrad. (NT) -- Lee, 21:20:21 02/10/10 Wed
Memo: Does anyone know anything about the trail of banana peels in the bull pen? And where is the gorilla that was in my office? Admiral Chegwidden (NT) -- usmgrad, 21:40:47 02/10/10 Wed
Memo from Falls Church PD – thank you for your recent 911 call, we drove by your building and saw what appeared to be a large gorilla on your roof’s radio tower. While we agree this is a serious problem we regret to inform you we cannot assist with the capture of the animal. We suggest you contact the zoological society. Due to budget constraints they work every other week and should be available a week from Monday. In the mean time we suggest you account for all female personnel and find someone that can fly a stearman. Once again thank you for your call and please call again. (NT) -- usmgrad, 22:04:00 02/10/10 Wed
Memo from Harm: Has anyone seen Mac recently? I can't seem to find her! (NT) -- Lee, 22:19:51 02/10/10 Wed
  I am so confused, Lauren Singer (NT) -- Jen, who really is confused, 22:28:22 02/10/10 Wed
  Jen -The memos are supposed to further the storyline, so that each memo reads like another twist in the story. Each poster adds another memo that relates to the previous memo and moves the story along. The whole thread is supposed to tie together. Hope this helps clear your confusion. (NT) -- Araninda, 00:37:13 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Harm: Commander, is you stearman close by? Adm A J Chegwidden (NT) -- Katiegirl, 23:47:09 02/10/10 Wed
Memo: Harm to Admiral Chegwidden. Yes, sir, it's at an airfield just out of town. Why? By the way, have you seen the colonel? (NT) -- Lee, 00:07:13 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Adm. Chegwidden. Sir, with all due respect, that isn't a 500 lb gorilla. It's the stumbling block that's been around so long, it sprouted hair. Col. MacKensie. (NT) -- Cece, 00:13:42 02/11/10 Thu
URGENT Memo To All JAG staff: New intel reveals 'gorilla' is actually former genius who is victim of agency de-evolution experiment gone wrong. Firthermore, agent in charge of botched-up experiment stupidly involved and implicated himself in said mission and is now an 'invisible man' and 'gorilla's' accomplice. Said 'gorilla' easily identified from other innocent gorillas by his snaggly mustache and gold tooth and 'invisibe man' can be easily spotted by his wimpy 3-piece suit which remains painfully visible. All heros welcome to capture local 'locos'! Admiral Chegwidden (NT) -- mj, 05:48:01 02/11/10 Thu
Memo: To AJ Chegwidden: Suspects spotted entering Courtroom #1. Sir, isn't Lt. Singer trying a case in there today? Bud (NT) -- Christa, 07:43:40 02/11/10 Thu
Memo from maintenance: Could the person or person who left the lacy black bra and Gold Wings in the supply closet please come and pick them up. We're here late. P.S: There is air freshener on the bottom shelf left of the copy paper. (NT) -- TF, 08:23:08 02/11/10 Thu
Memo from the Gorilla: I have the leggy brunette. I'll send her back when someone confesses to putting peanut butter on my bananas. (NT) -- TF, 08:26:30 02/11/10 Thu
Memo from Harm to the Gorilla: You might as well give up, Gorilla. I vow to get that leggy brunette in the end! (NT) -- Lee, 10:25:19 02/11/10 Thu
Reply All: This is not "Boston Legal" people! I need to see noses in computers doing case review and feet in my courtrooms! Captain, Colonel, Gorilla...my office. NOW! - Chegs (NT) -- C., 12:16:21 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Adm. Chegwidden: Sir, the staff want to know the correct way to address the gorilla. Is he a three star gorilla? Is he, in fact, a male gorilla? Can he pull rank or does he just smell rank? Commander Rabb. (NT) -- Cece, 14:41:58 02/11/10 Thu
  GRABB! Good one Cece! (NT) -- Lee, 15:23:30 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Commander Rabb: That gorilla has the power of life and death over you, Commander, so be careful! AJ Chegwidden. (NT) -- Lee, 15:26:41 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Adm. Chegwidden. Permission to speak freely Sir. Me be careful? With all due respect, the gorilla's in your office! Cmdr. Rabb. (NT) -- Cece, 15:51:36 02/11/10 Thu

Memo to JAG Staff: We have intel that you are in posession of a secret military weapon designed for covert jungle ops. This top-secret weapon went missing from Andrews AFB the other day. It is armed with a new olfactory weapon and could cause serious problems. Please keep it contained until we can come pick it up. (NT) -- Signed, Air Force General High Winds. (aka The Chief), 18:35:59 02/11/10 Thu

Memo to Col. MacKenzie: The gorilla belongs to the Air Force... Figures (snicker) (NT) -- Cmdr. Rabb, 18:38:15 02/11/10 Thu
MEMO - Point of Information - gorilla: the largest of the apes; an ugly, brutish person; slang. a hoodlum or thug, esp. one who threatens or inflicts violence. This has Webb written all over it. Harriett (NT) -- usmgrad, 18:53:44 02/11/10 Thu
  GRABB! Good one, usmgrad. (NT) -- Lee, 19:15:12 02/11/10 Thu
MEMO - To JAG Staff - recapping - There is a 500 lb gorilla (Bud, you did weigh him didn't you?) that might be a former genius who is victim of agency de-evolution experiment gone wrong (Tiner did you have anything to do with this?) or a secret military weapon (has anyone seen Lt. Singer?) designed for covert jungle ops. We do know he (not HE) keeps interfering with an office romance and quite possibly has the power of life and death over Commander Rabb (I thought Mac had that power?). Has anyone checked on Clark Palmer to make sure he is still locked up in Levenworth? (NT) -- usmgrad, 20:35:48 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Harmon Rabb: I checked on Palmer, and he has escaped from Leavenworth once again. Be on the lookout for him, Rabb. Signed, Clayton Webb (NT) -- Lee, 22:39:39 02/11/10 Thu
Memo - Does anyone have a paper clip? Harm (NT) -- usmgrad, 23:17:01 02/11/10 Thu
Memo to Harm: Sure do, sunshine, but you'll have to fetch them yourself! They're in my 'bottom drawers'! Mac (NT) -- mj, 06:03:52 02/12/10 Fri
Memo to AJ Chegwidden: What kind of mess has Rabb gotten us into now! It's all over ZNN that there is a gorilla loose at JAG HQ. Admiral, what are you running over there a ZOO!!!! Get control of this situation ASAP. SecNav (NT) -- Christa, 06:57:36 02/12/10 Fri
Memo to SecNav – Be advised the ZNN report was leaked by certain parties upset with personnel at JAG headquarters. We have the leak under investigation. There will be a full report on your desk as soon as the investigation is completed. There is no, repeat no gorilla here. Admiral A. J. Chegwidden Judge Advocate General (NT) -- usmgrad, 09:51:57 02/12/10 Fri
ATTENTION all Personnel: Be advised teams from S.N.O.W. (super Neanderthal operational warrior) and I.C.E. (internal crap exterminators) are being dispatched to “take care” of our problem. All officers are restricted to their offices and all enlisted are restricted to courtroom one until further notice. Admiral Chegwidden (NT) -- usmgrad, 09:53:15 02/12/10 Fri
  Too bad that team from I.C.E. didn't show up 'round about, oh, say, "A Tangled Webb"..... (NT) -- The Chief, 10:12:12 02/12/10 Fri
From: Chief of Staff . To: Judge Advocate General . Copy to: All Hands. Mission complete, including mop up. The Marines landed, stormed the break room and eliminated the hazard. The gorilla succumbed to a lethal combination of bananas wrapped in blue feathers that restricted airflow and depressed breathing. As on-scene commander, I ordered that no attempts at revival were warranted in the interests of national security and good order and discipline. The carcas has been removed to NIH for necropsy; I have referred all OGAs desiring access to that Institution's Counsel. (inside) -- jan, 10:51:38 02/12/10 Fri
Memo to: Col. S MacKenzie From Cmdr. H. Rabb: Now that the big ape has been taken care of, let's get married. I think we've been thwarted long enough! (NT) -- Lee, 11:18:26 02/12/10 Fri

What a great ending to the Saga of the Gorilla! That was fun! Thanks Araninda. (NT) -- Cece, 12:46:27 02/12/10 Fri
I second that sentiment. Thanks Araninda for bringing this game back. Look forward to the next "memo". (NT) -- Christa, 20:19:14 02/12/10 Fri
Memo to Lt. Vukovic: Please clean up gorilla poo-poo Bring LARGE dustpan and broom (NT) -- jerseygirl353, 08:24:48 02/22/10 Mon
