Minesweeper Online

Minesweeper Online

 

It’s that classic Windows game on the web!

As a Linux desktop user, I have not used MS Windows on my home computer in ages. Of course my work computer is still using Windows, but they took all the games off. Well here’s a little site where you can get that old time Minesweeper fix of yours. It includes many features that the original did not have including a “no guessing mode” and of course the ability to play against others.

Of course it’s ad supported and uses trackers, but that’s just how things work these days.

Online Sequencer

Online Sequencer

Tagline: Make music online

This is a fun site that allows you to “draw” notes into a sequencer and play them back. It features a page where you can see the latest saved sequences from users as well as forum and chat room.

Not trying to show off or anything, but I do have an account there. Here is one of my own personal creations.

Ad supported? Yes

Trackers? Of course.

But it seems to “play nice”, and it works well with uBlock Origin.

 

Better Things to Do

Flush Twice is 20 years old now. It’s about time I tried something new with it.

I’ve told all the jokes I’m going to tell, so let’s trying something a little different. I’m going to start posting links to various sites that I think might be more interesting than what you are doing right now. Think of it like a sort of grab bag for things to do online.

To be completely honest, I have almost no idea how this is actually going to work, but over the years I have amassed a huge collection of bookmarks. So many in fact that I have a bookmark toolbar with folders titled “A” through “Z” and I drop new bookmarks into them all the time.

Of course some of these are going to be sites you have probably already heard about, but some people might not know about them. I might also be featuring really obvious sites that pretty much everyone knows. I can assure you they are not monetized adverts, but rather merely cataloging these sites for the sake of completeness and posterity.

At some point I might add a visitor suggestion box. I’m a little apprehensive about doing so, because “spamvertisers” are still a thing, and I really do not feel like wading through that quagmire. If and when I find the right plug-in, we might give it a go.

Oh, and putting any sort of links in the comment section is still forbidden, so don’t even try it.

Of course if you do have comments or suggestions and don’t want to wait for a suggestion box, I may still be contacted by means of flush2x at that enormously popular email website ran by google.

And from time to time I will post a new comic, but other than releasing them only on Saturdays, I will not be keeping to any predictable schedule.

Well OK then. See you tomorrow with our first featured site in the “Better Things” category.

Bear

A laff a day keeps worries at bay:

A lawyer went out bear hunting and spotted one in the bushes and blasted away. The lawyer investigated but couldn’t find the bear. As he was about to give up, he felt tap tap on his shoulder and when he turned around saw the bear.
The bear said: “You know, it’s not bear hunting season?”
The Lawyer answered: “Yes, I know.” The bear took the rifle and smashed it on a rock, threw the hunter across a tree trunk, pulls his pants down and sodomised him. He then told the Lawyer: “Get out of here. I don’t want to see you again.”
The Lawyer was incensed, so he raced back to town and bought the biggest bear rifle he could find, and returned to the forest.
A few minutes later, he spotted the bear and emptied his rifle. He then searched for the body, but couldn’t find it. He then felt a tap on his shoulder, and surprise, surprise, it was the bear again.
“I thought I told you not to come back,” said the bear. The bear then proceeded to smash the new rifle, and again threw the Lawyer to the ground and sodomised him again. “This is the last time I’m warning you. Don’t come back.”
The Lawyer went berserk. When he got back to town, he bought a M16 and went straight back to the forest. Thinking he saw the bear in a bush, he took aim and emptied the entire M16.
Still no body, until, a familiar tap on the shoulder.
“You’re not in this for the hunting, are you?,” asks the bear.

Salesman

A young man from Nebraska moves to Florida and goes to a big “everything under one roof” department store looking for a job.
The manager asks, “Do you have any sales experience?”
The kid replies, “Yeah, I was one of the best Bible salesman back in Omaha.”
The boss liked the kid and gave him the job. “You can start tomorrow. I’ll come down after we close and see how you did.”
His first day on the job was rough, but he got through it. After the store was locked up, the boss came down. “How many customers bought something from you today?”
The kid responds, “One.”
The boss says, “Just one? Our sales people average 20 to 30 customers a day. How much was the sale for?”
“$101,237.65.”
“$101,237.65? Holy Mother Mary! What did you sell to him?”
“First, I sold him a small fish hook. Then, I sold him a medium fish hook. Then, I sold him a larger fish hook. Then, I sold him a new fishing rod. Then, I asked him where he was going fishing and he said down the coast. I told him he was going to need a boat, so we went down to the boat department, and I sold him a twin engine Boston Whaler. Then, he said he didn’t think his car would pull it, so I took him down to the automobile department and sold him a 4×4 truck with all the bells and whistles.”
“A guy came in here to buy a fish hook, and you sold him a boat and a truck?!”
“No, the guy came in here to buy feminine products for his wife, and I said, ‘Dude, your weekend’s shot. You should go fishing.'”
