well, so far, it looks like gaming's wining by a large margin... good thing we have a solid gamer contingent here. TF2, LoL, WoW, TOR... good times!
... who's up for some DDR at some point?
I’m actually going for
Settlers of Catan!
Anyway, as for regions, I would be looking for something in the vicinity of the Upper Mississippi River Valley or nearby. Possibly around the Twin Cities or Madison. Could possibly make it to Milwaukee, if I wanted to go the other way, but I couldn’t guarantee it.
