Hooray, already getting a few contest entries. Remember to please be specific. Some of you are on the right track, but it'll greatly serve your chances to name not only what, but also who and why... (hah?)

Also, it's usually against my policy, but I've revised the latest script a bit. It's come to my attention that Ping doesn't make golf balls. Oops. Mistake caught. Revision uploaded.

*** CONTEST! * CONTEST! * CONTEST! ***

Take a good hard look at the image to the right! Can you guess what it is? Well, put your thinking cap on, amigo, because the first one to correctly guess what phenomenon is photographed at the right gets a SUBSTANTIAL PRIZE, courtesy of JeremyBear.com!

Not only that, but the person to come up with the MOST CREATIVE guess will ALSO get a substantial prize, courtesy of JeremyBear.com! How's that for service? Yow!

So, get those ballots in, laddies. You have until midnight on Thursday. Good luck!

We've got a Christmas tree, at long last. With a good 11 days to spare until Christmas morn, we went out to a local lot and picked ourselves a... actually, I don't know what kind of tree it is. But, it's Christmassy, whatever the case. According to Carey, it's "perfect." And I'd agree.

But, woof, the prices of trees out here! Regular full-sized trees were going for somewhere in the 70 dollar range. We didn't drop that kind of coin, but not far off. Pretty unbelievable. So far, though, the cats have been pretty polite with it. Only one ornament has been batted down since we put it up yesterday, and I'd call that a success. Thanks, cats, for a blessed holiday.

Let's see. The newest script is up, and wouldn't you just know that the title comes from Dave Pacheco of Winona Lake, Indiana? Dave was kind enough to take a minute out of his hectic schedule to suggest My Caddy, Nigel, and how could I refuse? Read it right away. IT'S THE BEST THING I'VE EVER WRITTEN. History, ladies & gentlemen. I've officially peaked and it's all downhill from here.

I don't know why I bothered waiting until the previous posts to start suggesting cool links. I recently discovered this little beauty: www.orisinal.com. I think this may take the cake for the coolest use of Flash I've seen yet. Not only does this designer do some utterly astonishing work, the site manages to be a whole lot of fun and I recently found myself spending hours I don't have messing around on it.

Orisinal.com officially bridges the gap between fun, interactive online Flash-based games and attractive design work. I think I've just taken it as a given that online games are, by nature, garish and overly dramatic with agitiating music designed to stress out and adict the player. Not so here. The games are accompanied by soothing piano and synth music and, for once, I actually felt myself DEessing while playing. My favorites were "The Bottom of the Sea" and "Snowbowling", but I'd have to say "The Truth is Up There" wins for most creative concept. Go take a look and be sure to click on everything you can... it's an awesome experience.
