Hello Friends,

Here I am Lucia again trying to find a good and virtuous topic to inscribe and share on my blog.

So the topic for today is "Card Games Vs Computer Games".

Memories go back to learning to play games like euchre and 500 as children and the hours we spent doing the same as we grew up. The fascination that this had for me was like a lesson in mathematics every time we played. Later, when in college, many of the students gathered around the tables in the students' rooms and the cards were always on the agenda.

The fun we all had and the challenges were exciting. Now, however, there is almost no one playing cards because the computer and Xbox games have taken over in many homes. My young grandchildren spend hours in front of the television with a joystick in hand doing things that have no intellectual advantage. Even adults enjoy things they can do on a computer instead of at a table with the family.

In recent years, my efforts have been extended to Bridge and also playing 500 in the local clubs, which have sessions on the nights of the week. It is interesting to see how many of the veterans, like me, enjoy the night and how competitive those efforts can be.
