| 2005 09 03 - 'WHACKY' Weekend My friend Niels had made this game for me about 5 years ago. At the time I thought it was the funniest thing I had ever seen. Somehow over time, I had lost where I had saved the game and was certain it was never to be seen again. This weekend I came up to the cottage for a little R&R and invited my friend Niels along. The two of us being gadget gurus, we both brought our laptops with books of CDs covering just about every program you can imagine.  a pretty good likeness of him My friend Niels collects software CDs... rather, he can't bring himself to throw any out. For example, while going through his CD collection I came across one for Internet Explorer 5.0. This version is about 5 years old. What's more, right next to it was the latest version. So, it was as a challenge I told him we should get a garbage bag and throw out all his old (and useless) CD's. The first CD I grabbed was marked - 'Internet Explorer 5.0 and misc stuff' Niels told me he would put all kinds of stuff on his CD's as back then memory was expensive as were CD's. I actually told him since he had not looked at the CD in 5 years there would be nothing on there he would miss. So I promptly put the CD in my computer and opened a random file.... Wouldn't you know it, the file was my long lost game! I was thrilled to tears. Needless to say, we did not throw away a single CD. Here's a copy of the game. You'll have to download it to play it. It's soooo worth it! CLICK HERE TO PLAY |
