    Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out (NES): Beat!

    After almost twenty years of shame, I FINALLY beat this game. I’ll be honest it wasn’t easy. I basically played for half an hour every night when I got home from work (around midnight) for at least a month. Most of that time was spent figuring out how best to play Mike. Progress was slow but steady and when I knocked him down for the third time in the second round I was ecstatic….

    No Talking Tuesday Year End Wrap Up End of Year Five

    November 02, 2012

    Year five has been unremarkable except for the six weeks I spent in Japan in the spring. I’m no longer worried about making accidental mistakes. I hardly ever write anything down to communicate with others anymore. I feel I have nothing left to prove to myself or others. I mostly stay away from even talking about it or mentioning it in any way. …
