Do you all remember Funny Farm? I've gotten surprisingly far on my own, but it's getting rather hard. I may spend my whole summer trying to figure it all out...
I used to hate gravity because it would not let me fly. Now I realize it is gravity that lets me stand.

Thanks... I've been playing this for a couple of hours now. On the other hand, Saturdays at work are incredibly slow, so it does give me something to do : )
