Created in 1991 by Sid Meier and Bruce Shelley for MicroProse, Sid Meier’s Civilization is a game that changed the game. The objective is simple, “Build an empire to stand the test of time,” but achieving the objective in this turn-based strategy game isn’t so simple.

Small Oddities: Clerks, Trees, Serenity and Solitude
I am always amazed at the talent found on DeviantArt. The brushstrokes, a correctly placed pixel, the click of a camera at the right moment, the correct light, cartoon irony, serenity and humor. It’s all in my feed thanks, in no small part, to the talented artists and photographers that make up my watch-list.
Declassify >John F. Kennedy’s Role in Space Exploration Cannot and Must Not be Understated
November 22, 2013 is 50 years to the day that then President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. Fifty years is a long time ago, but for the man who lived for just a short 46 years, he did a lot for his country and the world.
There has been and will continue to be a lot of remembrances of the 35th President of the United States of America, but I for one am grateful for the path he started us on, in a speech before a Joint Session of Congress on May 25th, 1961 and reiterated in a speech on the campus of Rice University as well.
Declassify >“Like a Rolling Stone” Music Video: Choose Your Own Channel
Bob Dylan’s Like a Rolling Stone is making a comeback as an innovative interactive music video.
The concept is really simple, you’re watching TV and you have 16 channels available, but they are all different versions of Like a Rolling Stone by Bob Dylan, spoofing channels and shows all singing along in complete synchronicity.
Declassify >Infiltrating The 2013 Great Allentown Comic Con: The “Too Big” Little Con
I really do enjoy going to The Great Allentown Comic Con. It’s always full of and eclectic bunch of artists, writers and celebrities.
It has friendly dealers that are just as willing to strike up a conversation as they are to sell you something. You can haggle prices and there are always people cosplaying, or if you prefer, there are always people in costume.
