heathcliff Titanic: The Board Game from Universal Games 1998 where you have to collect your personal property around the ship and make it to the lifeboat in time. My son's a Titanic fanatic, but we don't play it very often.

I really enjoy writing childrens' stories, picture books in particular. I'm not published, mostly because I have not made a real effort to get published, but I really enjoy it. One day I'd like to get my work published though....

lilybug I like cheese probably more than the average person. I do not like cheese on my veggies though. I like my veggies steamed with just a little bit of butter, salt, and pepper. Some of my favorite things with cheese are dips. Chili cheese dip, salsa con queso,...

Aoi Hana I love cheese so much! And I put cheese almost on everything. I even put cheese in my mango shake. And in my pancake. Try it, it's so tasty. This discussion is making my mouth water.

heathcliff I agree. In fact I enjoy yard sales and thrift stores and have a hard time passing up board games, especially if I've never played them. I wanted Mystery Mansion really bad when I was younger, but I still don't have it. I do have one Titanic game though.

wrongway Showing horses is not abuse. I am not a trainer or breeder but I have seen horses that love being in the ring. You can see their personality change the minute they go through the gate. They perk up and seem to say "look at me". I once had a horse that was a...
