My Memory Isn't What It Used to Be

What can exceed the thrill of world travel? Climbing the ladder of sucess? Digging for lexigraphical treasure? A swell game night. Always go for the world map thing. Was a bit becalmed in the Bay of Bengal but still managed to collect enough "tea" and rubies of inestimable value to win this one despite not making it back to home port in Shanghai. Long live the People's Merchant Marine!

But even being "first man in the moon" wasn't enough to take this one. Lost all me money on a second trip to space. How does that happen? Did I leave it on the landing module? And who takes cash to the moon anyway? Game went, as might be expected, to the lawyer.

Two quick rounds of lexical dexterity to conclude the evening. The pirate theme was a bit of a stretch. Evil One took this as Lady Luck made up for his narrow loss in a tie breaker with Cargoes but my camera ran out of memory before I could record his victory grin. Next time EE!
