Greetings

In a week when the US launched its first manned spaceship into outer space in 57 years, when a petting zoo kangaroo named Chesney escaped by scaling a tall fence and led authorities on a three-day chase before being safely apprehended, when people at an Australian airport were surprised to find a very real, confused possum sitting among the plush toy animals in a gift shop, and when Apple turned 50 years old, we're still talking games here at Meeple Mountain.
