We played Monopoly at an ABB (Anybody But Bush) fundraiser last night at a friend's house in Arlington, VA. We made $560 to Redefeat Bush! I thought ti was a little funny to be playing Monopoly, because to me, Monopoly seems like a Republican game—the richest player wins! Of course, the game was supposedly invented "at the height of the depression" by Charles P. Darrow, but does that mean it's not Republican? Anyway, it appears the Darrow story is highly contested. Was Monopoly really invented by a woman? Read all about the ongoing litigation here.
