Out, damned Monopoly
The ever-eloquent Yehuda has a few things to say about Monopoly. I love his metaphor.
Mischa Krilov, back in New Orleans. Read about life post-Katrina and post-Austin. I also occasionally talk about games, movies, books, the didgeridoo, food, technology, and my son.

I like that. It was a nice read. I especially love this snippet.
"I still love you, don't you ever think
Otherwise. But I grew up, and you didn't. I
Can no longer play with you, than I could with
The five-year old versions of my grown-up children."
I feel the same way. I love Monopoly. If I could go to the past and experience it over again I would. I love how he equated it to the desire for his children to be young again. It was a great read, MDK. Thanks for linking that.
