Can't we do both?
Actually...modifying the above post...Backgammon IS a wife friendly game. Thus...it will be a big part of the evening. I can see Power Grid as a possibility too, so if you'd like to bring that. Ticket to Ride is ALSO a possibility.
I guarantee that You Don't Know Jack will also be played...but that's on the PC...you will love it.
We will probably cut out around 9 or so. I didn't sleep all that well when I was out of town and should get down a little early. Plus...I'm a LOT older than you are!
