    Favorite Toys:

    Magic the Gathering trading cards. I've been playing this game since about June 2004, and am starting to write a webpage about my involvement with the game, linked here.

    LEGO bricks are an old favorite of mine. I haven't played with my LEGOs much lately. They're in store, either under the basement stairs or in my closet. I have a few on top of my bookshelf and dresser, those are there for decoration.

    I have about 10,000 LEGO pieces. I counted them to get an exact number and it really did turn out to be around 10,000: 'Alan's LEGO Collection' main page (Still needs work)

    Monopoly Graphics


    3 Monopoly pieces: racecar, tophat and wheelbarrowA U.S. stamp featuring Monopolyall 6 denomiations of Monopoly money, denominations are $1,$5,$10,$20,$100,$500

    Monopoly sets contain exactly $15,140 in Monopoly money. How I would like to play a game of Monopoly with real money! (The U.S. government used to print actual $500 bills.) But, since real $500s are extremely rare, and cost way more than $500, I would use extra $100s.
    I listed the rules of Monopoly here.

    I have a self-composed Monopoly strategy section.

    I used to like making my own play money, which I call Alanbucks. I have a page here, with various info and pictures of the system. At the start of 2010, I revived the activity. all 4 suit symbols

    I happen to be a big fan of card games. I'm writing a book on card games, even. My Rummy 500, Hearts and Euchre rules, linked here, come from that book. These pages were even suggeted to, and linked by, the pagat.com card game megasite. (also, that site's webmaster put up the rules for a coupel of my self-created games.) diamondsclubsheartsspades
