Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!”
–Hunter S. Thompson
Here we are at the end of another exciting romp through the galaxy of Charybdis. I do sincerely hope that you’ve enjoyed the last several weeks of what my spouse lovingly refers to as ‘that space lobster game’. I hope that the game made your burdens a little lighter, your imaginations a little more vibrant, and has left you with some fond memories of the experience. If anybody spent any portion of their Monday or Tuesday evenings mashing F5 while waiting for updates, I’ll chalk that up in the ‘win’ category.
