Though foreign-born, he is often considered an
American icon. His career may have peaked in the 80's and has certainly taken some
questionable turns, but he's retained a
cult following. Now he's having a true comeback, and though some may be displeased that he's "
sold out", for him it's just the latest in a lifelong
series of transformations.

Speedcluster
, a frentic combination of Speed, Solitaire, and Tapper, is an extremely compelling virtual card game which is sucking up a lot of my casual time, so I might as well pass along the obsession.

Tales from the DEW Line.
In the mid-50's, the Distant Early Warning, or
DEW Line, a series of radar stations along the 69th paralell, began scanning the arctic skies for signs of soviet bombers. Though cut off from direct contact with civilization, and often hoping that nothing would happen, staffers of these remote outposts still found plenty worth writing about or photographing (

I usually only sing on tracks when it's necessary to fulfill the requirements of a compilation, as was the case with this medley from Flogging a Dead Cow, the Dead Milkmen tribute album. Another "quality"

Pawn shop accordion 303 twiddlin' attention-deficit toytown junglism. Yes, it uses the amen break unapologetically, but it was '98 and I was too young to realize how played it was. Hope you enjoy it.

In the ancient year 1982, Atari tried an unusual
promotion strategy for their
SwordQuest series of games. Using clues found in the included
comic books, players competed for a chance to win actual
jewel-encrusted treasures [geocities link] worth tens of thousands of dollars apiece. The competitions for the first two titles (
Earthworld and
Fireworld) were held, and
the winners took home their gaudy prizes, but then came the infamous
console crash. The third contest (
Waterworld) was cancelled, the fourth game (Airworld) was never
officially produced, the promotion was called off, and to this day, no one knows for certain the fate of the remaining treasures.
