Smitty likes it.
Hmmm.....
I have the 1975 edition of Joy of Cooking, and it's old school, taking one from boiling water to complex recipes. In the 1997 edition, they "dumbed it down" because they didn't think modern cooks would take the time and care of previous generations.…
If you order in the next 15 minutes, we'll thrown in this roll of clear plastic, suitable for covering maps while you play, *at no additional charge*! Operators are standing by!

2/3 cup granualted sugar

Oh somebody PLEASE bury MJ, ok??
Ok Consm folks out there: Who else is tired of hearing about Michael Jackson besides Jim Werbaneth and me? Was he talented? Yes. Was he on par with the greats in the music industry? No. He liked to be in the company of young boys and he should have been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law regarding the child molestation cases. I just hope to hell no one tries to nominate this freak for sainthood.

- You are invited to join us at WBC anytime--we even have a few all-female teams you could join, just for fun :D We don't offer Oregon Trail, but we have lots of other games you might like.

I'd like to personally invite you all to read a full preview (13Mb PDF link) of our new fast-playing (30 minutes) tactical WWII card game, Frontline General: Spearpoint 1943 in our newsletter. I'm happy to announce that we've just passed the 200 p…
Thanks!
Count me in Jim!
Didn't we just have a special election.....God we get to go through THAT yet again....
I've found the internal debate (i.e. the debate in my head) has been to either play a lot of games poorly or a few games well. I prefer the latter model, but then you must, as you say, find that set of holy grail games that one chooses to become goo…
Chris:
Really - that's a good point. I wonder if the Audi folks realized the message they were sending out with this one. I doubt if anyone found it funny in the least.

The fact that Carolyn like KAtie, married men like us tells us they are good and special people.
My wife Carolyn teaches special ed. I wouldn't trade jobs with her for any amount of money. Very difficult work indeed.
Group to discuss boardgame Map Making.
Where amateur and published map makers can discuss and assist each other with techniques and methods used in creating boardgame maps.
(not a group for arguments about what map style or software app is best)
I've recently printed and built "To the Last Man." I was able to play the game and get an idea of its look and feel beforehand thanks to BGG and Cyberboard. It's an excellent game, one well worth the bother.
I _hope_ it is just by unfortunate accid…
Yes, this was a creepy ad. I looked at the Audi website to compare this car to others. Oddly enough, you are unable to compare it to the VW SportWagon TDI, which gets exactly the same mileage.
Lately, I've been mad at Newsweek, due to issues of bias that are beyond the realm of this group. However, tonight I read a very good article on its web site, regarding layoffs.I was once in a meeting at a former employer, and we were going over th…
I second the motion. May his service in the defense to his country be what matters in the hereafter.
The game on the development table now is Rob Markham's Saratoga. This game covers the decisive battle of the American Revolution tactically, with two scenarios. One addresses the Battle of Freeman's Farm on September 19, and the other is on the Ba…
I'll just say "R.I.P.", lest I stray into the political realm.
