Journal FortKnox's Journal: Lunch and more time wasters 8
Well, today, I didn't have any chips... so instead I packed a yogurt parfait... vanilla yogurt layer on the bottom, then blueberries, then peach yogurt, then strawberry slices, then granola. It was in a BIG cup. Wow has that been satisfying. I'm still not quite done with it (its 1:15), and it looks like I may not need snacks throughout the day. Definately worth looking into making if you are a big lunch (or any meal) eater.
Oh, that timewaster. Its a flash game (so you may not be able to get away with it at work) that plays like a pen&paper RPG. Turn based. Loads of fun until you start winning without trying much (hint, your red mage (area attack magic) does craploads of damage... use'm wisely). Tactics Core.
Oh, and if you didn't get the Petals around the Rose game, I'll give you the algorithm... you can figure out how it fits in with the rules (hint... look at rule #1):
total = 0;
for( i=0; i<5; i++ )
{
_ if( dice[ i ] == 3 ) total += 2;
_ if( dice[ i ] == 5 ) total += 4;
}
(The underscores are there to help indent the line)
There ya go (yeah, I pad the insides of my parens and brackets... try it...you'll be surprised how clean nested parens can look).
[1] Big difference between metamucil and the generic stuff? The generic stuff doesn't disolve well, so its not just 'nasty orange drink', but 'nasty orange drink with big nasty chunks in it'... ugh... shoulda bought the smallest one. Saving money just cost me two discusting drinks daily for about a month, maybe a little longer

if (x) total+=2;
would be strictly verboten. Must be:
if (x) {
total += 2; }
Some guys even end up doing this:
...
...
if (x)
{
}
else
{
}

I actually started out with that, but I'm in a bit-oppy mood lately and I liked the symmetry of having "everything but the 1's column" on one hand times "just the 1's column" on the other. It does the same thing.

The stuff that "disolves" in water is way nasty!
I use this groovy stuff [quixtar.com] and it's so good that I sometimes just munch on it alone, like dry grape-nuts cereal.
It's great in Yogurt... Would go perfect with your afternoon snack.
