Looking Good . . .

Fifty minutes past Ideal Time . . .

I'd say I'm "aiming for 10," but now I'm taking it easy on my way there.

Civilization IV: Colonization, or "Colonization 2,
" was released this week; I might eventually get it. Yes, it's pretty much Colonization, with a few updates, using the Civilization IV engine. One way or the other, more proof Sid Meier is a god of gaming.

Making proper hard boiled eggs, two at a time: in four turns, turn on, turn up, turn down, turn off. Each done at 10 minute intervals, helped by Online Stopwatch:
- Turn on (first ring): turning on to a low flame, after having let eggs soak/assimilate for the first 10 minutes.
- Turn up (second ring): raise the flame a bit higher.
- Turn down (third ring): Actually, add water, so "water down" works better, but ruins the "turn" flow.
- Turn off (fourth ring): eggs are ready! Pull out, let cool, enjoy later.
