Little E got a Super Mario Bros. checkers set for his birthday. We play it a lot. He’s gotten frighteningly good. He plays a pretty mean game – enough that his old man sits there, scratching his head, and mutters “How do I get out of this one?”

So is Puck.
A good time was had by all!

P.S. Never rely on a stoned cat for strategic advice.
