I agree, Hiram. Growing up, we had all kinds of board games like Monopoly and Life and Clue. Some of my most vivid memories are of the *rare* Sundays my dad would join us in Monopoly, start out practically losing his shirt and then ending up richer than Midas! We always tease him that it's too bad he still hasn't gotten that Midas finish down pat in real life!
My sibs still play Uno but I never enjoyed it. I think one of my favorites is still homely old Checkers--used to sit and plan strategy for hours with my great grandma as a little girl--can still beat the pants off my kids even with all their 'advanced' computer training/strategies!

(You should hear the cheering when Mama and Papa square off for a heated round or two of Scrabble!!!)
