Greetings

In a week where an Austrian stuntman lit himself on fire and pulled a car 328 feet to earn a Guinness World Record, where a cheating scandal caused several competitors at the World Stone Skimming Championships in Scotland to be disqualified, and where a Florida woman punched an alligator in the eye to rescue her dog, we're still talking games here on Meeple Mountain.
