Dear Papa,
I see you have a link to Line Rider on your site. Does that mean that it is taking over your life like it is mine?

Dear Mr. (or Ms.?) Away…
I assume you are referring to the highly addictive Flash “game” called Line Rider. You’re right, I have provided a link to that “resource” under the del.icio.us links sidebar. (You do know about Delicious right? Web 2.0? Bought by Yahoo? Hmm? If not, then get a clue and read my fascinating thoughts on Web 2.0.)
Anyway, back to your cry for help about Line Rider; the game where your draw the lines that the cute monkey-looking sled rider follows. I have to admit that my kids and I have enjoyed the nifty videos that Line Rider freaks have produced on YouTube and Google Video (sorry for being redundant).
And since I am a “Web 2.0 Professional” I have taken this “tool” for a test run in the effort to learn more about what one can do with Flash. But, since I do not see any immediate revenue-generating opportunities from developing Line Rider skills I would advise that you focus your creative energy elsewhere. Here’s an idea! Maybe you could start a Line Riders Anonymous support group and make it a virtual community. Then all of you sick LR addicts could IM each other when you get the urge to slip ‘n slide.
If that doesn’t work then you may need to get professional counseling. I frankly do not have the bandwith right now so call somebody else.
(now where did I put that pen tablet?)
