Why is a raven like a writing desk?

Thoughts both confusing and enlightening.

Why is a raven like a writing desk?

Thoughts both confusing and enlightening.

OK, what can I do with:

elbeno, 5 October, 200629 July, 2007


a blood-soaked electric fan
a severed hand
a massive pile of band-aid wrappers
a bag of swedish fish
a painting
a fire extinguisher
a pigeon
a ball-peen hammer
a frame
a photograph
a roll of tape
a portrait
the left half of a coupon
a steel key
a bottle of aspirin
a towel
a pillow
an unlabeled first can of beans, an unlabeled twelfth can of beans, an unlabeled eleventh can of beans, an unlabeled tenth can of beans, an unlabeled ninth can of beans, an unlabeled eighth can of beans, an unlabeled seventh can of beans, an unlabeled sixth can of beans, an unlabeled fifth can of beans, an unlabeled fourth can of beans, an unlabeled third can of beans, and an unlabeled second can of beans

?

Things I already did:

  • ate a swedish fish (yum, 1 point)
  • unpeeled labels from all the cans (1 point)
  • unlocked the door with the steel key (but it is still nailed up with boards)
  • got a couple more points from somewhere: I’m at 4/11
  • I tried putting the severed hand out of the window, too, but can’t figure out what to do after that

And yes, the hand is mine, severed with the fan, and the stump is patched up with the whole box of band-aids (hence the wrappers).

Voice actors threaten video game strike

Yahoo News article, via Slashdot. Hollywood throws a tantrum because the games industry doesn’t play their game. Boo hoo. “It is simply shortsighted to believe that consumers don’t care about the artistic quality of the characters.” It is simply naïf to believe that consumers even notice voice acting except when…

SPOILERS AHEAD (But for games that are pretty bad, so you might not be bothered…) Somewhat perversely, I like to try play the worst games first, and get them out of the way. I score not according to a strict system, but vaguely according to puzzle fun, plot, and implementation…

    Put the photo/portrait/painting (which ever fits) in the frame
    Hit yourself with the hammer, then take the aspirin to relieve the headache and sleep it off with your head on the pillow.

    The photo came out of the frame. Aspirin already relieved my headache. But I did get further. I am not at 6/11 and trying to open a jewelled egg.
