I'm still on the first boat book by georgeha (2.00 / 0) #1 Fri Dec 17, 2010 at 02:07:48 PM EST

I don't think they've even left Spain. It hasn't grabbed me yet.

But it's mostly introductory, it really takes off after the first.

I was going to add in a bit more milk than I'm currently drinking (current consumption is around 1 quart per day or less) to make the 500# squat goal by the end of the year, but since the slight back injury put that out of the question, I didn't and I've been shrinking for the last couple weeks.

Chicago was OK until the mid-70's by wiredog (2.00 / 0) #5 Fri Dec 17, 2010 at 02:28:16 PM EST

Chicago X was where they veered way off course. Chicago IX is a decent collection.

Live at Carnegie Hall, if you can find the original box set, is an awesome piece of hippy self-indulgence.

Years ago... by MartiniPhilosopher (2.00 / 0) #6 Fri Dec 17, 2010 at 04:07:30 PM EST

my father actually liked Chicago. The amazing fact about this is that he has a tin ear. That early Chicago remains one of the very few bands where he can hear the music easily enough to enjoy it. So he collected many of those first albums. However, he ended up selling his collection, including a rare first printing of "Transit Authority" to get money to buy his wife an anniversary gift of an 8-Track. Sadly the 8-Track died in short order. Fast forward to my first year at college and through my explorations I find a tobacco and record store in lovely downtown Rolla. Imagine my surprise when I find a promo version, complete with stamps of "Do not sell! Not your property!" of the very same first album with nary a scratch on its surface. For two bucks.

That was his Christmas present that year, as well as the next couple as I labored to find vinyl copies of the first ten albums. I think he's still missing a few. Not an easy collection to put back together these days.

PS: If you're looking for a good two player game with lots or repeatability, why not give Dominion a shot? The base box is easily enough to last quite a few sessions before you even have to go looking for one of the expansions.

I've heard it's pretty good.

My hate burns like the heat of a thousand suns. by ammoniacal (2.00 / 0) #8 Fri Dec 17, 2010 at 10:58:45 PM EST

Looks like I did an adequate job of expressing my feelings last time around.

Loved Carcassonne, and C&K Settlers expansion, but neither of those for two. Both Smallworld and most recently Stone Age seem to have great 2 player rules, and have been enjoyable with more.

I also love Taluva for two, Dominion is certainly great for four.

: most are hopeless for 2 by gzt (2.00 / 0) #10 Sun Dec 19, 2010 at 11:26:56 PM EST

Mostly interested in good games generally, but take note of ones that are good for 2.
We just tried C&K with 4 today, we liked it a lot.
