Merry Christmas John! Wow, and is that ever a site design. I didn't see the hello kitty coming.
Play is good. PHP play is double-good.
What in the name of Rubic's Cube is a 'Jenga'? My guess, is: 'John eats no green asparagus'. Am I even close? I think to the contrary, game-savant that I am. Murry Christmas was a childhood friend of mine, or someone else's friend come to think of it, as I had none to speak of.

The official definition:
"The word jenga is derived from kujenga the Swahili word for "build", jenga is the imperative form."
My preferred definition: "The word everyone loves to yell in your face when you are the one responsible for screwing up the last play."
So, I guess the word "Jenga" could be heard resounding through the Abbey Theatre as the curtain closed on Shaw's last offering. I think Beckett was in the audience, middle seat, third row, doing some homework for Joyce. Thanks, John.
Stephen Jenga!
