Annoying waste of time

Well - here are a few new sites that are absolute fantastic wastes of time.

For all of you that remember the mini-golf games, here is a miniature-golf game

You have to download it, but don't worry - it's just a flash file, and it's fairly small.

My best score so far is still on the + side. Haven't even been able to get par yet.

Or you can go fly a helicopter

My best score is a 1025.

Don't bother to thank me. I'm just helping reduce the productivity of America.

Well, I finally got par on the course. That back 9 is killer. But I'm darned close to getting an under par score. I just have to figure out a couple more holes.

Oh, and here's another funky game to try.

Man I played the golf once, I got a par on the front and the last 4 holes brought me to +9. Lol

I finally managed a -2 as well. It seems like one hole always screws things up. I was running a -6 till I hit hole 16 (I think) and then got a 7 on that. Totally wrecked my score. then a bogey on 18 and I was back down to -2.

Here is another one to try:

Curve Ball

Pretty addictive. Kind of like ping-pong.

My best so far is level 7 - 22250 pts.

Just managed a -12 on the mini golf game. Now I am officially retired. Although with a slightly better performance I see that the ultimate score would be to get -18. I can't see how it's possible to get higher than that. There are only a couple of good eagle opportunities and it is at least possible to get a birdie on every hole.

Daddee you remind me of those old "Bob from AccounTemps" radio ads, where the replacement informed the boss that the regular guy at the desk was a "Wing Commander with over 1000 hours"

Gee, you must be a Captain!

Yep, I am a serious geek when it comes to computer games. I used to be even more of a geek. But lack of time and money has restricted my playing time.

Although I did have some serious fun with the last Jedi Knight game they released. That was WAY fun to play. Took me forever to beat it too. A sign of a good game.

Oh, and Return to Castle Wolfenstein was seriously cool too.
