Asymptomatic

We stopped at Target this evening to look for something completely unrelated (a cake pan, if you must know - yes, a new shaped cake is incoming), and while passing through the toy section, I looked over their selection of board games. It was pretty poor.

I know I've mentioned that I'm a game junkie. I buy, uh, everything game related. I've come across a few pretty darn good games in my time, certainly enough to bother writing about here. And since I've noticed that my visitors are looking for such things, I thought I would take a little time to answer some questions and point to some real winners.

Before we get started, I'll answer the main question posed that leads people to my site: Is it ok to buy your boyfriend a boardgame? The answer is yes. There is a catch, though. Either you must know that he plays them already, or you must play them with him. If not, don't bother, or he'll end up with a really cool game he'll never get to play. Or maybe it would inspire him to find a group to play with. Who knows?!

Now, on with the games!
