I plugged something into a power strip my wife uses, and noticed the plug retention was poor. I said something to her, and she said yeah, I don’t use that outlet. I took it away, and because it is the sort that uses normalish receptacles, opened it up.

In my part of North America, the jet stream is a big part of our weather. It tends to make a southern swoop, and depending on where that swoop goes determines if we get arctic air or not. We just had a 20 day stretch of below freezing high temperatures, which is the longest in 20 years.

I made a big list of games I have played so far this year on BGG. The first 50 entries are in there including mini reviews (most of which I have already posted here) and some other impressions for each game. I plan to add more games as I play them for the first time this year to my game diary.
