Surprising depth for simple mechanics

This is a classic, that is old but still holds up and my family has been playing it for many years.

I have no doubt this is the father of ticket to ride. this one was published first and it's still really fun. It's since been re-implemented. The fact that each turn either consists of playing track and building a train to get stock, or putting down stock before the round ends, and the rounds are driven by the deck. it's so simple yet so brilliant. For this to be published prior to 2000 is amazing to me. I'm a fan of what Alan R Moon does. If you are reading this Alan, keep up the good work sir.

Mediocre step down for Tobe Hooper

Tobe Hooper, the director who brought us 1974s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, directs this low budget 2000 horror film about a group of unwitting college students who venture on a house boat for spring break and soon come face-to-face with a local legend, a giant mother crocodile who seeks vengeance when one of them destroy her nest and steal one of her eggs. This alone makes for a senseless plot as most of all of them deserve what's coming to them. The only thing really worth watching in this just seeking this giant reptile sink his chompers into them making a meal out of them. If there is one good thing about this flick, it is the soundtrack. The film stars Mark McLauchlin, Caitlin Martin and Chris Solari.
