Sorry I haven’t posted much this week, but I’ve been REALLY busy doing high-level, important stuff… such as sending out copies of the ADCO virtual Thanksgiving card to various folks from my contact list.
In case you didn’t get one, here’s a post about it on the ADCO blog, and I quote:
You think YOU’VE got it tough this Thanksgiving – what about the poor turkey? With the president too busy fielding questions about official airport groping this holiday season (and we are not making this up), the noble bird might not get the traditional pardon. Only you can save him! Help him collect enough balloons to get off the ground. Then you can gorge on Thursday with a clear conscience!
If you could get through the first level of Super Mario Brothers, you can save the turkey! Click here to play the game.
And yes! This is what we’ve been doing while you were working, you poor sap. You can thank us later…
Obviously, we decided against the usual static pieties and had a little fun. The game is the work of Giovianni Difeterici of ADCO Interactive.
And don’t be afraid to try it. It’s really easy. Your kids and grandkids will probably turn their noses up at it, as being far easier than, say, Super Mario Brothers circa 1980 something (but they would probably only make that comparison if they are into antique games). But I figure it’s just about y’all’s speed, if I’m right about my demographics. And if I’m not, get back to playing Black Ops and stop sneering at the rest of us…
Happy Thanksgiving, y’all…
Oh, and for trivia bonus points — Where have you heard the game’s background music?
It sounded like Vince Guaraldi.
Even if it isn’t…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgoPl35n_AY
Now, what’s the prize?
The best of all Thanksgiving wishes to Brad and the Warthens.

Don’t know the trivia points but it sure reminds me of the jazzy music one would find from a Charlie Brown’s Christmas special on TV.
I won! That was a great way to kill some time. Is it Charlie Brown music?
