Hi, Shari! The piece in the front center is from Shogi, a.k.a. Japanese Chess. (I think it's a knight).
Mal: Does she understand that? River: She understands. She doesn't comprehend.

I don't recognize any of those game pieces. Except chess. The bunny one is cute, though.

The BUffy Board Game piece is the piece you use to count off days between full moons. I don't know what it's called, but you roll a particular die to find out whether it advances, and it's important, because Oz loses all his accumulated stuff (but becomes a badass) when the moon goes full.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Nutty beat me to it. I'll just add that it's pewter.
The 10-H piece is a hotel chain piece from Acquire.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Shari (or anyone else), if you're interested in "cheating," I just googled my way into another discussion of the contest: [link]

Keep breathing!
I knew people here could help. Ah, so many games, absolutely zero time. My games these days are mostly "rock, papers, scissors" with a 5-year old and "where'd you put my cellphone, darling?" with a 3-year old... Thanks, folks.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Definitely.
That is working out pretty well so far. msbelle, come visit.
Shouldn't I be the one to get the visit?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gah. Both of my bosses are gone, but I actually have something I have to finish before I go home.
Life is so unfair.
