Balloon Risk

That guy who used the term "F@#&king Wetback" emailed me and wants to be friends again.

Chinga su madre, pendejo. :-)

We discussed this at length back in the summer.

You would think an old dog that's been kicked would figure out not to try and come back.

All right, show of hands, who amongst my readership used to play Risk?

We had a variation when we played, that we called Nuclear Risk.

If the three attacking dice turned up three of a kind, that meant that there was a nuclear strike somewhere on the board.

A country was drawn from the card pile. The soldiers in that country disappear, and if anybody maneuvers through the country during the remainder of the game, they lose half of their soldiers.

It was really fun if we nuked a peninsula country like Arabia or Panama, because you had to go through those to get from continent to continent, and the loss of troops would change the game with every move.

The Balloon Boy thing?

Send Daddums the bill.

That whole thing set of my Shergoldometer.

All right. Small post. Have a good Friday.
