Awesome map, but I hear their fares are astronomical.

I started watching Boston Legal this summer, and quickly became a William Shatner fanboy. Can’t get enough. This is his the song “Real” from his spoken word album “Has Been.”


I made it on the website. Can’t get more official than that.

On 2010 and the iPad. “Holy crap! Oh, my God! Do you guys have, like, flying cars, too? Did aliens come and give you this technology? That means I can get USENET anywhere.”
Lately we’ve developed an interest in collecting and playing some quality board games. We’ve bought two so far, and they’ve both been excellent fun.
- Carcassone, a strategic tile-based map building game
- Rummikub, a game of building and rearranging sets of numbered & coloured tiles.
Carcassone was first brought to my attention in an article about German-style board games. These kind of games have simple rules and can be played in relatively short amounts of time. Unlike the bafflingly popular Monopoly, players are rarely eliminated from the game, and the winner is often hard to pick until the very end. Carcassone is a great example of this and we’ve had a lot of fun playing.
Both of these games are also winners of the Spiel des Jahres, which is German for Game of the Year. This seems to be an excellent guide for finding worthwhile games.
