I know the price of gas is high, but I'm not sure you can e-mail yourself to work.

New World Edition Monopoly game
Does anyone else find the new World Edition Monopoly game board conspicuous? First of all, I had to look up "Gdynia". Sure, it's the cheapest property on the board, but why is it on there at all when cities like Los Angeles, Chicago and Rio de Janeiro are absent? Riga is the second-most expensive property, the best-kept secret among jet-setters...I guess. I might understand if China had two cities on the board, but three??? I've saved the most bizarre aspect for last.
Canada, a country so small in population that it barely surpasses the city of Tokyo, is the only country represented on the board besides China with more than one city--and it has not two cities, but three! Lastly, the coveted "Boardwalk" location is now occupied by Montreal, one of the least important cities in Canada. I'm not sure if it's still shrinking in size, but people are running away from Montreal faster than the residents around the recent huge propane facility explosion in Toronto were.
Here's a look at the properties on the new board in descending order of value:

Q & A's from around the web
Say I'm a butcher by profession and I set up my shop to allow people to watch me butcher my animals if they wish.....Would I be able to dress up one of my pigs in a cop uniform and butcher it in front of a crowd of people without worrying about any legal problems?
Only with the consent of the pig.

CRACK!!!
That was the sound of a baseball leaving the park.
Which Major League Baseball team recently swept the Boston Red Sox, spanking them 15-4 in one game and then in the following series against the New York Yankees, took two of three, humiliating the Bronx Bombers 14-3 in the rubber match? The birds, of course. No, not the Orioles. The Toronto Blue Jays.
Now that post season play is virtually out of reach, they give us something to cheer about. We dare not even consider the playoffs. You just know that the second it becomes even imaginable, they will promptly let us down. This comes from intense conditioning over a long period of time. It is still fresh in this fan's mind that recently, Toronto was swept by the worst team in baseball--the Cleveland Mariners.
Still, a sound thrashing of Boston or the (hated) Yankees is always fun to watch.
