      Maybe, but I'm thinking of a different one . . .

        There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "My ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."- Isaac Asimov

            A secret fraternal guide for masturbation dating back to ancient mesopotamia. Set forth by one of the first branches of warring tribes composed almost entirely of ten-year old children who were taught by intoxicated shaman that self-image was more important than education. They became the first nation of Nintendous, on the Island of Contraceptive.

                I came across the code tonight going through Megan Mcardle's blog. It's probably been at least twenty years since I've played it.

                Two other games I haven't play (and doing so will probably ruin the memory) but would love to are Zaxxon and Tron.

                  LOL That is old school, Shek. I never played Contra, but I did play Tecmo Super Bowl.

                    Actually, it was impossible to stop the offense. All you had to do was run around the end and you were guaranteed a 3 yard gain. This meant that whoever received the first kickoff was guaranteed to win. Amazingly, we still played it in hopes of a mistake by the opposing player (it never happened) even though the outcome was really pre-ordained with the first kickoff.

                      If you add "Start" to the end, its also the name of a band.

                        I can't believe I spent 3 minutes watching a Tecmo Bowl video, but that does bring back memories (and I did have to suppress my laughter lest my wife were to come out and yell at me for watching a stupid YouTube video).
