Yuki - Flag Wo Tatero[^]
This is the opening song of the anime series March Comes In Like A Lion.
It's about a shogi (some sort of Japanese chess) player.
The music is nice, the anime is a bit... Slow, but good nonetheless.
Anyway, all of a sudden there was a second season and this was the opening song.
It's poppy, somehow hopeful (I think), and it's been on repeat.
Too bad the series switched to another opening song, but at least I still have YouTube

Gregory Yob[^] (creator of Hunt the Wumpus) tried to teach me shogi when I was 20 or so, the idea that captures pieces can return to the board is quite interesting, but I could never wrap my brain around the strategy, let alone how each piece moves!

Just didn't make SOTW
Sounds like fun though, I'd like to play it sometime.
The Netherlands has an official shogi group... With 24 members
Why aren't you mentioned on Yob's Wiki page?

That's the good stuff!
Really helps me concentrate.

A little warning, it's very ambient, monotonous and long, I'm not responsible for you zoning out and doing weird stuff

Had not heard of Stars of the Lid before! Too fast paced - had to kick it down to 50% speed!
Just kidding, although I did do it for kicks for about a minute. Still sounded great, since YouTube pitch shifts it back up!
Fantastic music! Thanks!
(FYI, you were right about Heilung. Right after I posted my reply to you way back when, I was through listening to them! Except for one song where the woman was the primary singer. Listen to it occasionally. Started understanding some of the guy's words, and they are pretty dark and disturbing!)

This one?[^]
Otherwise I really don't remember what I said about them way back when
I'm not a fan of their music, but they do have a good show.

Returned from a ten day sojourn in Israel last night, and still waiting for my body clock to adjust. Ate some wonderful food - far too much in fact. Visited some wonderful historical places - religious and secular. Met lots of nice hard working people of different ethnicities. Saw first hand how people in the West Bank try to live peaceful lives. And being there on election day it was interesting to hear people's reactions first hand.

Welcome back

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Police surround the house, breach the door with weapons drawn[^]
I'm left with two questions:
1) How did it lock the door?
2) What was it doing in there that it needed privacy?
Anyone work for iRobot care to comment?

Not what I intended - but valid response - you get a point.
[edit] Actually, that's quite probably a better solution than what I intended [/edit]

Indeed, some of the the short CCC you guys are posting lately have multiple answers in my opinion. Walter Botts aka "Uncle Sam" was a Hoosier from Indiana.
