    When will people decipher the code of history? It can not be changed by switching the symbols.

    We must march on Washington. Or wherever Hasbro is located.

    We will go directly to Jail. We will not pass Go.

    In 1959, my new friend Jim Benson taught me how to play Monopoly, how to use his jigsaw to cut wood, how to use his Erector Set to screw meaningless little girders together, how to avoid his barking dachsund, and how to watch him practice his clarinet. Do any private eyes out there want to help me find my old friends?

    Ha! Dang! That is kind of funny. Another word comes to mind too, but we will leave that alone.

    Just checked the 6-foot-high stack of board games in my house. I have Monopoly Jr. and Anti-Monopoly, but Monopoly itself is missing. I think my kid took it a couple of years ago to where he lives with the girlfriend. I wonder whether all those old games are worth as much as Boardwalk now.

    Last time I touched a monopoly board game was when I kept my college drug stash there.
