5) They haven't made it yet....a small Ayn Rand figurine......or maybe Milton Friedman......or Friedrich Hayek......That would encourage people who play to look them up...and maybe learn why left wing statism sucks....
Wow, hard to imagine a less political thread than this, yet here come the fatally obsessed.
And probably oblivious to the fact that Monopoly was invented by a left-wing socialist:
The seeds of the Monopoly game were planted when James Magie shared with his daughter a copy of Henry George’s best-selling book, “Progress and Poverty,” written in 1879.
As an anti-monopolist, James Magie drew from the theories of George, a charismatic politician and economist who believed that individuals should own 100 percent of what they made or created, but that everything found in nature, particularly land, should belong to everyone. George was a proponent of the “land value tax,” also known as the “single tax.” The general idea was to tax land, and only land, shifting the tax burden to wealthy landlords. His message resonated with many Americans in the late 1800s, when poverty and squalor were on full display in the country’s urban centers. --
Monopoly's Inventor: The Progressive who Didn't Pass 'Go'
1. I guess music and languages. I have auralgraphic memory.
2. As many as I can get, although somehow I end up with the same one over and over.
3. Not really -- animals are fascinating, although mice piss me off being intrusive, which is why I got a cat. I learned to live with snakes here in the sticks, and they're good for rodents too. I have more of a problem with certain insects -- I practice selective Ahimsa, although flies and mosquitoes are completely exempt from that.
4. Yum. Almost any conceivable way; I generally make 'em over easy but I like scrambled or any kind of creative omelette. What time's bekfist?
5. I don't remember the pieces that well but wasn't there a car? That. I like to drive.
