Sure thing. In the past three years, (I'm 25) I've really started playing w/friends whenever we want to have a night in. And we girls don't get crap for wanting to play dominoes like when we want to get dealt in when the guys are playing poker. (Can I just take this moment to say I adore Jennifer Tilly?)
Wonder if its increasing popularity has anything to do w/the whole island sensibility/reggae, etc. also. Or maybe the growing realization that our grandpa's are/were way cooler than we thought at 13.

Hi Piers,

We have long advocated the ancient asian game of GO as a worthy alternative to chess/poker. Not that I’m holding my breath expecting young men to throw down their chips and pick up the stones, I still try to advocate GO when possible. We recently blogged GO in reference to MBA’s here:
