#5 Instead of an allowance for doing chores, you give your kids victory points.








#4 You added ‘Eurogame’ and ‘Ameritrash’ to your spell-checker.








#3 You can trace Troyes to Venice on a map of Medieval Europe, but you can’t get to the Piggly Wiggly across town.

  2. Five out of the ten really are part of my life. Would have been 6 but I did do some Latin in my past. Nice piece.
