M:This food is terrible! I cant even finish my dinner.
W: I know. You think with all the money we paid for room and board, the university could have better food service. Where are you headed next?
M: Im going over to the student recreation center to play some bridge.
W:Youre spending your time on a card game?
M:Not just any card game. Its one of the most strategic games.
W:So Ive heard. Dont you play with a partner?
M:Yeah! Four people play, two against the other two.
W: So, you try to play in cooperation with your partner?
M: Actually, the cards of one of the four plays are turned face up. That player is called the dummy.
W: I wouldnt want to be called that. When you are the dummy, what do you do while the cards are being played?
M: Anything you want. Sit there and study, shuffle another deck, get snacks for everyone I like to stand behind my partner and watch.
W: You know, Ive heard that bridge is habit forming. You should be careful not to play so much that you dont get your studying done.
M: Dont worry about me. I only play Thursdays after dinner, and sometimes when they need a fourth player. If you like, I could teach you.
W: Thanks, but I have a pretty heavy workload this semester. I already spend my evenings doing things I dont really know how to do yet.
