RISK
http://warfish.net/: play-by-email RISK, with map and rules variants galore. Send SteveKillen an email if you want to join a game!
I'm currently designing a /WarOfTheRing map for warfish using Chris Guerette's excellent PDF map of Middle Earth.

Settlers of Catan
Catan's great. I haven't explored the add-ons yet, though.
Carcassonne
A fast-paced tile placement game.
Bridge
More of an intimation of a hint of an inkling of an urge to to learn to play than any concrete desire yet. Anyone up for it?
Canasta
O Canasta, game of my peoples. (Well, my family, anyway.)
Talisman
The magical quest game. Is this the one that will get SidheRa into boardgaming? Only time will tell.
