Beards, Games, And Martin Luther’s Last Words
Happy Birthday!
…To my beard. It’s 3 months old today, and it’s showing its age. I can’t wait until it’s old enough to get me a Santa gig, or to tuck into my belt.
Games, Baby
Can you name that tune in 3 notes? Some are German songs, so this can be tricky. I don’t know how it is on slow connections.
Back when video games were called arcade games, one of my favorites was a game called Tempest You swirled around the outside of a web shooting stuff in to the middle. One of my recent favorites of online games involves making groups of three or more marbles, rubber balls, apples, whatever, to make them disappear before the time runs out. (See Bounce Out for an example). Well, I just came across a game that combines the Tempest and Bounce out, called W.R.A.X. It’s not too hard, and a real time waster.
And Finally…
When trying to explain to a Protestant coworker who Martin Luther was (You know, the FOUNDER of Protestantism?), I came across Martin Luther’s final words to his wife as he lay dying,
“I am fed up with the world, and it with me. I am like a ripe stool, and the world is like a gigantic anus, and so we’re about to let go of each other.”
-Martin Luther
