The sports area is a good place for this. Many talk about ball games, Nascar and such there.

HEY!!! Guess which thread I started posting in and forgot I'd posted in and left people hanging again waiting for me to answer like I tend to do from time to time because I lack the mental fortitude to maintain a significant grasp on my short term memory? What were we talking about?

Those, are games.
Axis and Allies is a strategy "board" game. It takes about 6 hours to play a game, give or take a few hours more or less. Warhammer and 40k are similiar, only played with miniatures you buy, paint and strategize with. Settlers of Catan is a strategy game without blood shed.
It's a financial strategy game. All are LOADS of fun!!!

Kinda. Except they're strategy, and not so much RPG/mystery (although Warhammer/WH40k have that quality). And they're table top games instead of computer games. And the fact that the rules books are far more interesting than Nancy Drew. And that Nancy Drew is a fictional character, and Germany, Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom and Russia are actual national entities. Apart from those things...no. They have nothing in common with those things.

Brother Kevin, I didn't know you are an artist. I don't consider myself to be an artist, but I do paintings in oil, pastel, charcoal, pencil, ink and watercolor.
I enjoy painitng and drawing so much that I am always drawing on every little scrap of paper that happens to be nearby when I am on the phone or just need to relax a few minutes. Beleive it or not I don't have one single piece of art that I have painted. My family has all my drawings and paintings, they keep telling me why don't I sell them, (how can I if the keep taking them ?
)
I paint and draw for my own satisfaction and my own pleasure, I have never thought of selling any of them. When I was in High School, we had a talent show for the whole county. My project was a very difficult one, but it was one I chose to do and enjoyed it very much, I chose to make a tapestry of The Sleeping Gypsy by Henri Rousseau.
I had a very small picture about 2" by 4" which I mathematically enlarged and drew onto a piece of burlap 2' by 3' and used yarn to weave the painting onto this burlap. I also had to make a wooden frame for the burlap before weaving, the whole project took me about 2 months. It won first placce at the talent contest, I was offered up to $250.00 for this tapestry, but my mom had already asked me for it and I turned down many offers for it so I could give it to my mom. It hung in her living room for 38 years. When my mom went home to be with the Lord, my brother claimed it. It is still hanging on the wall in my brother's house now; along with a bunch of my other work. I get a real sense of satisfaction just knowing that my work is appreciated by my family.
And knowing that God has given me this wonderful talent is a joy to me,
my talent has also been passed on to my grandchildren of my 14 grandchildren I have 5 that paint, and draw very well, may I also add that neither I nor any of my grandchildren have had any formal training in art. The only training I ever got in art was at school, my art instructor saw the potential in my work and I was placed in an advanced art class, but I was never tempted to go to school or get any further training for it. I just love doing it as a hobby.
