THE HOUSEWIVES OR HOME MAKER'S GAME

For the average housewife, the never ending tasks of cooking, cleaning, washing, scrubbing and general domestication of her family life brings out a fortress like mentality. Besieged by jobs that she knows, must be done, she looks for escape, to a new world away from the harsh reality of rubber gloves and the acidic smell of raw onions. In the rare moments that she does have to herself she like many others are taking to the Internet for her relief, the internet offers them an escape route that puts them in touch with other either like minded ladies or someone completely different. For a while the escape was poker based, but the recent laws prohibiting online gaming transactions has outlawed games of chance and hit housewives who have had particularly in the US their coffee time poker break curtailed. The search to find another alternative has brought about a new game, which by a certain irony originated for many in the parlours of the domestic home, but now has come full circle back to the parlours again, all be it under the PC auspices. Yes the average housewife is turning to backgammon to support their boredom time; the dramatic rise in the popularity of online backgammon has meant that the housewives have found the perfect partner for their spare time. At sites such as play65.com they can chat, discuss and play either for fun, or for real money in single or tournament plays and with the added advantage of not having to leave the house, being trapped can be for this part at least a pleasurable experience. The only other time that they need to leave really is when they go shopping, to take on another one of their domestic roles that of hunter and forager for the household. In these times the subtlety of backgammon gives way to the mundane list of shopping, tomatoes, greens, meat, cornflakes soap powder, etc. As housewife after housewife wind their way from aisle to endless aisle down one and up the other, observing them you would think they had some military training the precise way that they pick, place and deposit their goods into the obligatory shopping trolley. As they stare into the abyss of shopping merchandising high above their heads, they dream just for a split second of some visionary in the marketing company of a super market chain, offering backgammon to these women, so as they journey around they play their favourite game on a giant screen, aisle to aisle against the computer or against an opponent. With the prize a month's supply of free groceries to the winner. The dream over; they line up to the rhythm of the blip, blip, blip of the bar coded groceries as they file past clocking up dollar after dollar. Soon this expedition will be over and they will be able to return to the sanctuary of their domestic life, with just the dinner to prepare and the kids to collect and the dog to be washed and the, and the, and the ..... But, tomorrow once the PC is fired up then they can escape to their own little world, the backgammon world of the housewife. See more at www.casinobonuscenter.com
