    OT: My favorite diversion of the week.

    No, not watching clips of Janet Jackson's boob flash. I was talking about this nice link;

    http://home.tele2.fr/kcv/pinguin.swf

    See how far you can hit the penguin. My personal best after about 30 swings is 322.90. That may seem like a long way, but it's not all that unrealistic once you get the hang of it.

    Enjoy,

    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    I figgered out that the trick is to NOT hit pop-ups that cause pengy to stick head-first in the snow like an arrow. If you hit line drives, he'll skid for a long way.

    317.something. Yeah, I kept burying their heads in the snow, too, most of those were around 200. The shortest was like 50 ft.

    How the hell you get 588? That's nearly double most people's best.

    Got put on that game yesterday from another forum where the poster's best was 613. Like I said, the key is line drives to get the peng to skid. I haven't hit a pop-up longer than about 480. To time it right, I get struck out a lot, but when ya connect right, the peng will go like a straight shot in the air past the last sign, then bounce and skid for up to another 200-250. I spent 2 or 3 minutes at it 2nite, but didn't get any further than 503, and most a lot less, on average.

    My Penguins keep landing on their heads.

    I guess I must swing like a girl.

    Like similar stuff I've seen in the past, completely dumb but incredibly addictive if you catch in in the right (or wrong) mood. My tops was 320.3.

    I don't like others.
