my best win of Monopoly game ever!
towards the end i held a yellow and purple (yes the $2 rent one) property and a railroad. everyone merged into 2 powerhouses. i refered to them as Microsoft and Apple. they had hotels and big $$$ . i had less then $1K. i was an island. an island waiting to be swamped by the 2 big corporations.
each and every round, each dice roll in fact, could not happen without a ten minute battle between microsoft and apple arguing and pitching their case as to which corporation i should join.
i made a deal with Apple where i sell them my purple property (they held the other) for free rent on all their property. basically i don't pay them a penny for the rest of the game.
then as Apple tried to get me to merge with them, i made a quick behinds-the-doors type deal with Microsoft. i sold them my yellow property for not just free rent but i PROFIT off any rent they take in. i get $50 regardless of what the rent they take in.
bottom line..... the only time i pay anything at all is if i land on the luxury tax spaces. they became Microsoft and Apple while i sneakly became the government!
they were still trying to get me to merge with them when i got up, replenish my glass of brandy, came back to the board and announced my victory.

Man... that makes me miss playing Monopoly.
I have to give a
for amazing food yesterday with extended family. I also had a great (albeit uneventful) drive down to Chillicothe yesterday morning, and a pretty good (despite feeling both tired and sick) drive to HOME home from there. Then I proceeded to sleep in for the first time in MANY years on Black Friday.
