I'm actually on the other side of the state in Wood county.  I can see the Ohio River from my house and am only 40 minutes from several of the Rabbits in Athens, Ohio.

Do tell us about Survival Fluxx though.  My wife and I made a game for a Careers class that was based upon each child getting a career with a certain pay, family, etc.  They then had to budget money, pay bills, and had various "emergencies"  spring up that they had to account for.  The jobs were all based upon how much education the person had - trying to drive home the point that if someone drops out of school before graduation it may make it tough to get that car they want. :laugh:

I am in the slow arduous process of making a version of the game Once Upon a Time in Spanish to get my Spanish students to try some free-style storytelling in the target language.  I just recently heard about Nanofictionary though and may need to look into that game soon.
