addicted again

to a game, that is... this time it is called (oh what is it, anyway?... wait, i'll go look) virtual villagers... a game that lets you try to keep these little characters who've been stranded on a teeny tiny desert island alive and prospering as a culture through a series of well-timed decision and casual sex they call "going indoors" (the girls can't get pregnant until the day they are 18, however they can have their father... strange moral values, aye?... oh, they can work when they are 14, of course... the age and familial relations don't matter for the 18 year old boys either, so oedipus would have loved this game)...

but it's not all about the sex (just try to keep them from "embracing" however... they will> over-populate and die of starvation if you are not very careful), you've got to find/plant/create the resources to feed and shelter and so on... every hour is a year (on fast mode)... so i've been playing seven or eight years already...

what?... you've got something better to do? :)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
