This game thing that I've worked on today...well, it's surprisingly frustrating for me, as I couldn't seem to be able to choose which questions to use. I just couldn't find suitable questions, or questions that I like... Anyway, I reduced the expected number of questions by 10, and hopefully this game won't be a disaster. Even so, I won't be there to witness it, so I guess it should be fine. Also, using PowerPoint to display the questions is a bit of a drag. Haven't done this in a while. The good thing about using PP is that it looks a lot better than using VB. However, it's static, so you can't do fancy VB things like keeping score and randomize the order etc. I have always wished the best of two worlds, but that's apparently not happening...

Wow...I'm actually going to Pittsburgh in less than two days...yikes.

When talking to family, I have this strategy for answering questions where they expected a "yes" and I wanted to say "no." What I do is I just make some non-committal noise so that they assumed that I said yes while what I really said was no. Does it work? I don't really know...
