The Games we Play

I was reading the news today and found an article " the most popular game of all time"

Surprisingly it was Solitaire.The article stated that Solitaire is the most popular, addictive, and time-consuming video game ever created by man. And it hasn't really made any money. In fact, studies show workers playing Solitaire on the clock actually waste money by being unproductive.

Is it true??Kind of makes all this console war stuff seem kind of silly, doesn't it?First instinct,I felt like opening Solitaire on my laptop.:-)

I am not much of a sports/games person.As a kid,we didnt have a sports session at school and at home I would play tennis with my younger brother,which included fighting in the middle as to who would serve the ball etc.That too we were supposed to play it only during a holiday/holidays ,due to my fathers strict policy.Then when i was with Toto,we would spend lot of time online and play Pool /Word Game on Yahoo games:-).After coming to umrikaa,we would go bowling occassionally,mini-golf or airhockey with friends. Apple-bee too introduced us to couple of indoor games like taboo,pictionary,foos-ball. But After we purchased the Nintendo Wii, we did tennis for a while,bowling in the "Wii Sports" package. Wii Play included Billiards ,pingpong ,fishing ,shooting ,airhockey. In Winter,Toto went ahead and purchased "Need for Speed" .Obviously its the car racing game.He got bored for a while and his new game is Poker.Since its summer,I guess we could go outdoors play cricket or ball.

BTW,Dont start playing Solitaire now :-).It will cost your jobs.
