Just So You Know

Let me start this by saying if at any time you read a message that compels you to a response, by all means... feel free to continue the learning. You DO NOT have to leave your real name or any name for that matter. When you click "post a comment" or however it reads, you have 3 options. Once on the actual comments page, you'll see prior replies as well. Then there's the 'leave a comment' field. Under that are CAPTCHA and 'choose an identity' (name) options. CAPTCHA is designed to slam SPAM as well as let me know a human is posting vs. a computer generated response. Again, I do not consume beef nor pork so SPAM is not welcomed. Even a photograph of it bothers me. Ok, not really but you get my point and hence you will see the moderation message when you've finalized your post. The identity/name options are as follows:

1) Log-in using (drop down menu for those registered with those services)

2) Nickname and URL - allows you to choose any name and/or link your site to it

3) Anonymous (you can use it but I still have the right to decide if it gets published publicly or not - GOOD FOR ME - YAY!!)

So there ya go. Send me $49.99 if you use these instructions in your own BlogSpot. Cash, cashier's check, money order and Western Union accepted 24/7. :D

PC Games


I'm not hugely into PC games but I did find one (or 3) that I have been immersed in. When I bought my first PC in '95, it came with Hearts, Solitaire, Freecell and Minesweeper. I can't recall if there were any other games a I tried each one, did bad and then removed them. I had friends who were junkies on at least 3 of them. Fast forward to Pop Games and stuff on Comcast's games section in the beginning of 2000. Bejeweled, Bookworm, Q-bees??, and one more game had me so hooked I was late running out of the door for work. I ended up purchasing Bejeweled and it's part 2 successor. I think I purchased Bookworm but I can't remember where it is.

Now, Bejeweled has a third version out where you Twist the jewels. It's such a pretty game and the trial version is making me sick. I can't wait to buy the full version. Yes, I am the same one with tendinitis in both wrists and have come offline in sheer agony from hours of playing. I'm addicted, what can I say. I just downloaded a trial of a new pretty looking game called Jungo??

So... are you a gamer? If so, what do you like to play and why? How long have you been online gaming thru the PC. Game systems like X-Box 360, Nintendo and others are not included in this conversation.

  2. Jungo got removed as soon as it was installed. Too kiddyfied. And no Tluv, I need stay off Yahoo and any other games for now as I've been there and done that. (laughs) It's too addicting. But thanks for the reminder.

  5. Crackberry - ahahahahahahaha!! That was hella funny CH. Anyhow, I was so immersed in mah game I couldn't get back. I've amassed over a million 3 on Zen. In the trial, you get stuck on 15... so I just keep playing that level over and over again. :p Sad I know. I'm locked out of the others until some $$'s come from !?!?! I just "ranked up" and am a 12. I forgot what that title was now.

    Brickbreaker sounds like Tetris?? No... I have a brick hand held game not in color. AHAHAHAAAA!! I really like it but not as much. I still have some hand helds like Wheel of Fortune, UNO, and one of those all in ones that has a dictionary, thesarus, etc. plus some more stuff that's got loads of dust on it.
