This is kinda cool. Harks back to playing Space Invaders, Centipede, PacMan, etc., back in the days of the early electronic arcade machines, and for that matter, their primitive DOS and Unix computer game counterparts. I managed to knock out all but a handful of greeblies before I met my death (I only tried once), and the last time I played anything like an arcade game had to have been in college, so we're talking early '80s at the latest. Click on the blue link above (not the picture) to have fun with it.

Oh, it brings back memories of Space Invaders. What's next. Notebook Pong?

Oh, no you don't. I'm not gonna expose myself to anything else that may be addictive. 'Cause I'm vulnerable like that.

Bwahaha, Bud. I never could get addicted to video games, nor computer games, but I did get to be pretty good at the old arcade games that had spring-trigger pulls, and buttons on each side to work the flippers at the bottom of the board. Those became obsolete in the mid-late 1970s.
