In related news, friends brought us to a bowling alley this weekend that had a stand up "Namco" arcade console featuring several of their "retro" games from my day, my favorite being "Galaga", and I can't tell you how much I enjoyed rocking that thing at 25 cents per game. Got my initials thrice on the leader board, despite not having played in some 35+ years.

Here's the thing about the self-referentiality of self evaluating self: it's all but a dream, so make the best of it (i.e. how you define the likes of "better" and/or "worse").
