do NOT pass "go, do NOT collect $200

In a bizarre and ummm…. Well, bizarre turn of events, a woman may charged for a virtual reality murder.

After finding out that her virtual husband in a virtual game called Maple City, the 43 year old Japanese piano teacher was so distraught she decided to virtually murder her virtual reality ex husband.

"I was suddenly divorced, without a word of warning. That made me so angry," said the virtually psycho woman.
 
OK, so obviously she won’t be charged in the real world  for that virtual murder, (whew! I'm virtually relieved!)
 
In fact she hasn’t been virtually (or formally) charged at all yet.
 
But if the police decide to take this virtually ridiculous claim serious she could be convicted and face a prison term of up to five years or a fine up to $5,000.
 
I wonder if she will have to go to virtual jail or pay a virtual fine?
 
I mean.. wow! The most caught up I've ever gotten in a game was one time when we stayed up till 5:00am trying to finish a game of Monopoly.
 
*NOTE TO MY REAL LIFE/INTERNET/VIRTUAL FRIENDS... if I EVER get that caught up in a computer game, or any game for that matter, somebody please force feed me some Prozac then MAKE me to go out and meet real people.
 
By real people of course I mean people I can actually REALLY murder if they tick me off... oops I mean... ah HOTDOG!!!.
 
Did I just say that out loud?

5 am? wow.  That took a  lot of cervaza (is that spelled right?).  Or Dos Equis, or Negra Modelo?  5am?  Wow.  Who won?

I used to spend hours on World of Warcraft.  I knew it was getting to be a problem when I started actually waking up early on Saturdays to play.  That's just insane.

gramps, actually I was pregnant so no cervezas were involved. While all my friends were out partying it up I was at home with my non drinking roommates playing monopoly.

Who won? Well certainly NOT ME. I never win at anything. hehehe

Rob... that's a freaky game. LOL
