Did you know that Julia Roberts plays mahjong regularly? At least that’s what she told Stephen Colbert in an interview on his talk show last year. That just goes to show the extent to which this fast-paced game of Chinese origins has spread and why you really should take it up! If you want to take up lessons to learn how to master this fascinating game, check out this article.

I should take up Mah Jong because Julia Roberts plays it? Or just because she told some dude called Steve Colbert? Or because it spread? COVID spread (they say). I didn't take that up. Am I a fashion gimp?

Life usedda be simple, potatoes on mondday, carrots on tuesday, Corn an peas on Wednesday, repeat, Throw in some beef or chiccken . Go play in the swamp. Healthy and hale.
