Since Mass Effect really is not my kind of game, I decided after writing the article yesterday to go back and play the infamous and dreaded Zelda II.

Zelda 2
I remember a lot. And a lot of it comes up in random spurts. Lately, there is an episode with my aunt that keeps coming up.
Way back, sometime after super Mario Bros. 2 came out, I got my first Nintendo. We had rented one that summer, and after returning some Christmas presents that did not work (I am looking at you electronic Battleship), my mom decided to get it.

The mind is something that has fascinated me for a long time. Think about all that we can do. All the art of its various types. Music. Mathematics. Science. Stories. Philosophy. Faith. Everything we strive to be starts in the mind. And I had a master craftsman in the form of my uncle. His carpentry work was spectacular, and it was something to behold. From his carpentry, and my parent’s commitment to work, I grew up with a sense of pride in working and in working hard. That inspired me to try in my studies.
