Monopoly money brings back a lot of memories.  And as of today memories is all that's left of the money.

I've recently been pricing Scrabble boards.  My significant other and I have been having some issues being mutually entertained lately and I think a good 'ol fashioned bored game might be the panacea.  We've recently had some luck with Yahtzee and I'd like to give the classic word game a shot.  She isn't quite as enthused as I about Scrabble.  I bet she won't like the new Monopoly either.

Yes, you do still collect $200 when you pass "GO" but all those "Free Parking" rules you made up thirty years ago and force everyone to play when at your place are now out the window.  Not to mention that secret pile of money you kept under the board and all that skimming you did as the banker will now be handled by HAL or Big Brother.

No word if you get electrocuted when trying to sneak hotels on the board.
