[PLUG] OT: games book


This is off-topic in that it has nothing to do with linux, but vaguely
on topic, in that I think this book will appeal to a lot of people on
this list.

The book (Gladstone's Games to Go) is a collection of word games,
number games, parlor games: all things that can be played with pen and
paper or objects on hand, mostly things that are intellectually
challenging or interesting.

Disclaimer 1: Yes, that's an affiliate link, I typically pass on
amazon links that way, but only because amazon is a convenient way to
point to books.  I don't really care where you buy it if you like the
book.  But if you do buy it there, I admit that I get a few pennies.
If you follow it without the "purple-20," you avoid the affiliateness.

Disclaimer 2: The author is my ex, so I may be biased.  But we were
together when he was testing all the games, and it was a really fun
six to eight months.  Everything segued into an interesting game.

Disclaimer 3: I have no other interest in the book besides thinking
that the world would be a better place if more people played word
games and math games.
