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.

  1. Chris, I have no email address for you, but when I read this (http://www.ibnlive.com/news/zerogravity-surgery-for-astronauts/22714-11.html), you were the only person I could think of who might remember the reason I feel vindiated.
    In Mr. Gibbs' Physics class, I asked (either quite stuipidly or with amazing foresight) if it was possible to create zero gravity on earth. Everyone laughed, I probably even laughed at myself, but now--NOW!! I'm not so crazy!! (ok, I am still crazy, or I wouldn't desire vindication 7 years after the fact).
