Greetings

In a week where basketball legend Michael Jordan opened his fourth clinic to help the uninsured receive medical attention, where Australian scientists have announced discovering a protein in oysters that kills antibiotic-resistant bacteria, where the Mars rover captured a short clip of dry ice clouds lit up with colors from the setting Sun drifting over the Red Planet, where a company has started turning jet engine exhaust into clean energy, and where we learned about Doug, an 87-year-old man in Pennsylvania went door-to-door in his neighborhood to invite his neighbors to a party that would run "from 4pm until the cops arrive", we're still talking about board games here on Meeple Mountain.
