start a Flight 370 squares game, except with points like for the Super Bowl, you would have ranges of Latitude and Longitude assigned to the squares randomly after filling up the card?

probably, in most circles, anyway.
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.

I'll take the square that shows "landing on the rickety porch of a giant old lady who will be terrified of the teeny, tiny plane and the weird alien inhabitants."

I'll take the square that shows "goes back in time to the era of the dinosaurs and can't figure out a way to get back to 2014."

Then I want the square that says "passengers taken forward in time to repopulate Earth, replaced with charred corpses that can't be identified by dental records or DNA".
