Unemployment

I can no longer afford to buy my favorite beverage. It's been several weeks since my last consumption.

Can't even drink the product that my website celebrates and owes it's creative juices to. Freaking bummer.

Another Website

Any thoughts, advice or commentary?

YAHTZEE WARS

I recently recieved this letter in my mailbag regarding my Yahtzee photo below. I have been flushed out into the open!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The score from the photo doesn't add up! Are we being asked to assume* that this was from a prior game for which no true evidence exists as to who the real player was!!!????††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††
*chosen with great care as to derivative meaning

THIS IS A HIGHLY REFUTABLE MATTER AND IS THEREFORE DISPUTED & PROTESTED!

Based on web page image of† game display:

Top line numbers†††††††††††††††††††††††73†† photo
Bonus for score above 63†††††††††† 35†† photo
Full House†††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††††25† regardless of dice total
Small Straight†††††††††††††††††††††††††† 30† regardless of dice total
Large Straight††††††††††††††††††††††††††40††regardless of dice total††††††††††††††††††
Sub-Total of known amounts†††† 203

There was only†ONE Yahtzee†††† 50† regardless of dice total†

Therefore, the HIGHEST possible combination for the†3 remaining†categories†(which rely on the total value of the dice roll) being 3 of a kind, 4 of a kind & Chance would have to show as:

6-6-6-6-5 which equals 29 (*the photo shows 6's & 4's- but the benefit of the doubt will go to saying that maybe that was the completion of the 6's on the top row) That being the case 29 times the 3 remaining categories would be 87.

203 + 50 + 87 = 340 absolute maximum for the web page displayed game.

Regardless, in my (humble) opinion there was a current or prior machine malfunction. According to "Standard Gaming Practice", the player is NOT allowed to benefit from said malfunction, the RESULTS are disqualified and the machine is decommissioned until repaired. A gamer of any integrity would immediately†remove the battery to bring about a reset and so as to cause the ERASURE of the high score lest there be any future deception as to the validity†value. The is NO Room for boasting in this perpetual competition and visual intimidation of the enemy maybe deemed a violation of the†Accepted Terms of Engagement and the Terms of the†Geneva Convention.

New Website

I just finished a new website for a buddy. It's based on the same system as my site, has somewhat of an edge that mine lacks (not that I'm jealous or anything). I could really go crazy with it as the theme is right there. At any rate, go see it for yourself.


I present to you Outnumbered Outgunned.

It's a Good Day

Evening Song

Alright. I installed Garageband tonight, and I have to say, it's amazing. As if I should believe Apple could do worse!

Well, all things considered, I did my best futzing for about two hours and this is the first fruits of my labor. Let me know what you think of this, alright?

The morning Tea

Had a wonderful morning with the kids. We played some tag, hide-and-go-seek, tickle monster and watched a little Wiggles. I also whipped up some egg salad sandwiches, did the laundry and the dishes.

Lunch included bologna sandwhiches with cheese, milk and a finished off with a fudgesicle. After lunch the kids and I trotted off to the post office and got the mail.

OMG - I've become a domestic.

But the up news is this --- I got my copy of Garageband in, so I'm going to go futz with it till the kids get up from their naps!

Why I Live Here

Dog day afternoon.

Every once in awhile you come across something interesting. Perhaps, without definition. Some could call it a metaphor for life. Others might think it as something that just happens. I'll let you be the judge...

I've heard it said, "$h!t on a stick," but on a FORK?!?!

Seriously, I was just out with the kids when I came across this glorious social statement in the snow.
