monopoly

For the first time in over 85 years Hasbro will be making some changes to everyone's favorite board game, Monopoly. Remain clam there's no need to panic, the changes won't be major and it's more of a freshening up than anything else.

The public has spoken and Monopoly will cast away the boring old iron token, a symbol of domestic housework from a simpler time (it's not even an electric iron), which has been included in the board game for almost 80 years. In its place will be a cat. Hey, are you really that surprised? The internet loves cats.

Ever since I was a young kid, I loved playing Monopoly.  It was a great way to pass the evening or weekend away.  There was always fierce competition between my brother, sister and I and who ever joined in on the game that particular day.
