More Board Games please....

Welcome Class. Please sit down and we will begin our discussion. Today's topic is...Board Games. Back in 1231, before enjoyment was invented, and Labor ruled the land there lived a Man named Mr. Jack Board. And as was common in those days, Mr. Boards last name stood for his profession.He was a Board Maker. He was an astute and influencial man, as most Board makers were in those days ( For it was a very honorable profession.) And he noticed a Problem in the world that bothered him. That was that no one was happy. ( Happiness was just discovered but no one knew how to get it because things like fun and laughter were not around yet.)

So Jack put his mind to it. He thought all day and night, and while he was thinking something incredible happened. His hand started to fiddle and twittle. He started to drum his hand on a board that was sitting in front of him. Then without even knowing it he started to trace a line with his finger from one end of the board to the other without touching the black lines in the grain.
And so the first game was invented. A maze. Crude I know. But it started Jacks mind down a path that led to many other games. Soon building blocks were created by Jack's Friend Mr. Carpenter. Before you knew the whole countryside was alive with game playing. Tops and Puzzles began to be found in peoples homes. A huge Landmark was hit when the idea of Dice was thought up.

Happiness flooded the land, and at the head of this Gaming Movement was our friend Jack Board.

The ideas and thoughts cascaded until one day A Board Game was created. And everyone from the peasants to Nobles went wild.

This craze has lasted till today, where board games have reached a level never thought possible by Jack and his Brave Pioneer friends.

And that my friends is how Board Games were invented.
