i want monopoly but not the new one where they updated the placenames and market prices.
like now, you get $2 million for passing go. and you can buy like time square and football stadiums and railroads are now airports.

you shouldn't mess with classics. there are things can be improved and should be improved (like a new edition of madden every year). but there are things that are the way they ought to be.

like monopoly. where $200 is a paycheck and taxes are only 10%.

i miss those days.

one more shot

again, i shall be introspective on my use of this blog and the purpose it served in my life.

when i first started this, i was a 21 year old that had no idea what i was doing. neither on a long term scale nor a day-to-day basis.

but as we approach the 26th anniversary of my life, i find i'm much better on the day-to-day aspect of life. it is spending time with carla or it is work or occasionally it is friends.

the long term is still a bit hairy, but i least know what is going to happen, just not when. i will become a captain for trader joe's. i will buy a house. i will get married. i will get a dog.

but what about this blog? i have asked that question many times here. every 6 months or so, i get back on and give it a try. and i always claim that this time will be different. and everytime it isn't.

try and failing isn't as bad as never trying. but trying and failing a whole bunch of times is pretty close.

let's give it one more go.
