I love playing Spades... learned the game on a submarine in the summer of 1991, after the first Gulf War. Spades kept me sane on that deployment! I'd also be happy to learn to play bridge, whist, euchre, hearts, or any of the cousins of Spades. I don't care for poker, but I love the bidding/trick-taking card game family. Would be happy to join a game somewhere.
