She will pass go, she will collect way more than $200.

This might actually make me want to play Monopoly!

A big corporate sale has made it much more likely.

Unless the whole project gets stuck in movie jail.

Looking for a gift for that hard to buy for Central Mainer?

You've probably heard that Monopoly is going to be adding three new playing pieces: a rubber ducky, a penguin, and a T-Rex.  The new version hits stores this fall, by the way.  It got me thinking about what playing pieces we'd have if they did a "Maine" version of monopoly.  I put the question out to you and here are some of your best answers.

There is a new version of the classic Monopoly board game being released that will replace paper money with debit cards.

If you didn’t get your fill of board game movies with either Battleship or Ouija, don’t worry, the trend isn’t going anywhere. After years in development, Lionsgate is moving forward with a Monopoly movie with a script by Oscar-nominated writer Andrew Niccol.

Today, November 19th is ‘National Play Monopoly Day’. It is also, ‘National Carbonated Beverage With Caffeine Day’. How many times have you played Monopoly with a Coke, Pepsi or Mountain Dew? I combined the two because you may need the caffeine to play the game if it takes longer than the "average time."

Monopoly is one of the most popular board games in America and in fact, the world, and it hasn’t been until now that "house rules" have been added to the rules and you can help via Social Media through Monopoly's Facebook page.

According to the calendar of bizarre holidays, today December 20th is ‘National Games Day’ which got me thinking about what my favorite games are to play. With the possibility of power outages due to weather this maybe what we’ll all be doing over the weekend.

The public has spoken and Monopoly will cast away the boring old iron token, a symbol of domestic housework from a simpler time (it's not even an electric iron), which has been included in the board game for almost 80 years. In its place will be a cat. Hey, are you really that surprised? The internet loves cats.

Which ones will stay and which one will go? 'Monopoly' will be replacing one of their iconic game pieces and you get to choose the new one. Hasbro is asking fans to vote on which of its eight game tokens should remain and which token should be retired. 'Monopoly' kicked off its 'Save Your Token' campaign this week letting players vote on-line.

With the fiscal cliff looming, talk is hot and heavy over cuts to entitlements.  The $20, 000 question is, how much better off would we be if only those people are entitled were getting entitlements?
