Ticket to Ride: The Fullers

My family’s board games nights get personal, so I made and printed a variant for our favorite game, Ticket to Ride, that was real personal. Like, make a magnifying glass inset to our childhood backyard personal.

My friend, Ray, is known for his pithy movie reviews.

-> Mission Impossible Fallout: “Hot Garbage.”
-> The Meg: “Better than Mission Impossible Fallout.”
-> Dunkirk: “Thank you, Nolan.”

tidbits to tilt your head

-> The slogan for Gettysburg, SD? Where the battle wasn’t.
-> How great of a tactician was Alexander the Great? He never lost a battle.
-> The 1912 Stockholm Olympics didn’t wrap until 1967, thanks to Shizo Kanakuri.

I love tidbits like this, so I started a website to help me keep track of them.
