Dear VAM,
Gee, the 1840 playroom would be a heck of a lot of fun. Everybody could play monopoly, chutes and ladders, trivial pursuit, etc. But then again, in Angelique Stokes-Collins' so-called parallel time room, everybody could play "games" of a decidedly different nature.
So, it's a tough call. The very young kid in me would like to play in the 1840 playroom, but the 17-year-old in me would opt for the more sophisticated parlor games of the parallel time room.
Of course, as the years fly by, I'd probably be just as happy to have my warm glass of milk, grab my copy of the latest mystery by Mary Higgins Clark and jump into my Craft-Matic Bed (alone, of course) just like Ezra Braithwaite does in his apartment over the Braithwaire Jewelry Shop.
Sincerely,
Bob the Bartender, future AARP member.
