Another Childhood Illusion Dispelled

For anyone who is interested, there's a new game at The Problem Site. The game is Picture Word. It's kind of a reverse hangman game. There are about 120 different pictures in the game. If anyone has interesting pictures from vacations, hiking trips, or anything like that, and you think they'd be nice additions to that game, feel free to send them on to me. :)

On another subject. When I was a kid, I always heard people talk about the Nobel Prize, as though it was the prize. The most prestigious award that could possibly be given to a person.

So, I just read recently that Al Gore was this year's Nobel Peace Prize winner.

Yeah. So, I actually assumed that the website that I read that on was telling a joke, being facetious.

Until I went to the official Nobel site, and saw that, in fact, they did award the Nobel Peace Prize to Al Gore.

The thing that really gets me is that, when I win my Nobel prize, I'll now know that it really doesn't mean anything.

Okay. I'm out of here. :)
