Hmmm.

The most violent we get in games is Carrom. Family games here tend to be things like Clue, jigsaw puzzles, hearts, and the like.

No death or dismemberment involved. But that does sound more exciting. Maybe we should try some of those. What non-electronic wargames do you sugggest as offering the greatest potential for bloodshed?

Kitty litter, definitely. But we always have a plentiful supply anyhow.

Actually, truth be told, we're in the process of getting a generator for the house that will handle heat and hot water (oil fired burner, so all we need to power up is the circulating pumps), water pump (we're on a well), fridge and freezer, microwave, and a few house circuits including the library outlets so the computer can continue running. After 20 years of regular power outages, including one a week long without running water (snow melt is NOT pleasant to drink, but it is better than nothing), I'm getting to be a sissy.
