Did they fight in any war? No? So they are going to burn down schools for Karl Marx? F* them. 1900, they were luck not to get the chair! ==================================================== Dear Mr. Horowitz: Best wishes! You sounded unwell on TV. I do hope you feel better. As we get older, our bodies tend to care less. The digestive, cardiac, pulmonary and lymph systems tend to indiscriminate, and we die saying "F* y'all!" Please keep hydrated. You can't just drink water. Your kidneys need something to work against. Those little lemon fiber one bars, just one a day, are great! This time of the year, the summer produce is awesome! A small peace of bread, a slice of apple, a little fresh cheese, and a few basil or oregano leaves are great! Wash it down with one of those Stoli one shots, frozen, poored over a green tea bag! Run it by your general practicioner first please! He may be conducting some "off the books" rogue experiment. Marxists! Gotta love them. Just gotta love them. :) ...---...---...--- ...---...---...--- Dear Mr. Jack Dorsey: The Actor! (SAG Credit from 60 Minutes) Thank you for lifting my twitter ban! Who knew! Fighting back against people trying to murder me is now a crime. Yet actually murdering people, as all those nice young revolutionaries in Egypt and Syria did is celebrated! What a world! It's like we can kill babies, and let rapist out of prison! If I was a more enterprising youth, ie, a scumbag law school student who failed out at math and can barely read, I would file an FCC complaint against you. Yes! YOU JACK DORSEY OWNER TWITTER MEDIA I'm sure I can find any judge who would consider your license of what Russians and Chinese, yet alone the Party of God as directed by the Supreme Leader of Iran, and the crack dealing torture murdering pimps of Cuba and Venezuela, are doing to POTUS twitter account as a campaign contribution. Good thing I'm not! Anyways, I will continue to suffer the slings and arrows of Team Valley in their blacklist of my meager engineering career. It's Sunday after all! I missed Church! I deserve it! If you want me dead, just plow me over in a car, or get me raped by some gay old man. No sense starting World War 3 just because I don't feel good. That's Hillary's, Michelle's and Jon Podesta's job! Never mind Oprah or Gail! They're out to lunch! TTFN! -J- :)

  Board Game Geek has the rules, and some good pictures of the initial board set-up. Looks like you could build a board out of grid paper in a matter of minutes, and scrounge some usable pieces from other games or from stuff around the house. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/127685/suffragetto/images https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/127685/suffragetto/image...

    You can get board game components(meeples etc) on amazon for those that are into developing your own games. A few years ago at Games Expo (uk) I remember playing an alpha version of a game in development - it was inspired by the Building of Milton Keynes as I recall.

  Georgia Tech has print-and-play files available free on their site [1], and somebody made a kit for the full game on The Game Crafter [2]. There are also 3D-printable game piece models on Thingiverse [3], if you want more-accurate meeples.
