Hi, Kathy...we play a card game called Shanghai...is that what you are talking about? It's a seven-hand game and takes a long time to play. I love that game.
I like mahjong, too.
My "kids" and I sometimes play Counter-strike or Half-life (computer games) on a peer-to-peer at school. I give them one day a nine weeks to play as a reward for finishing that portion of their work.
I love backgammon. The problem anymore is that I don't have time to play many games.

I haven't played Shanghai with cards, just the computer version with all the little tiles. It's sometimes really tough to see how the tiles are packed in, and then you can't get at them.

Oooh - gummy - I downloaded bridge, cribbage and backgammon games to my pda - whenever I'm stuck somewhere I pull it out and play!
