The game called Chat Noir, which can be found in my Ten Fun Flash Games article, was driving Wilhelm crazy so I thought I’d show him that the “frickin cat” can indeed be boxed.

These are the best Flash games from Neatorama.com. They’re easy to learn, easy to play, and each one is guaranteed to provide at least 1 solid minute of entertainment. Enjoy!

#10) Chat Noir Kitty! This cute little kitten is probably smarter than you. Try to box him in with dark circles before he bounds off-screen.

#9) Shuffle A super simple billiards type game. Knock all of the other balls off the table to win.

#8) Spin the Black Circle This game turns the world around… and around and around. Spin the big black circle clockwise or counterclockwise to let gravity guide a ball to its goal. This simple and unique concept offers fun gameplay (to a point). Some mazes can be maddeningly frustrating and I would have liked this game much more if there was a way to save my position midway through a level. Restarting from the beginning after getting SO CLOSE was only fun the first 800 times.

Results from a previous poll indicate that very few PixelWit.com visitors use a toolbar when browsing. I don’t use one either, but there’s one FireFox plugin that I absolutely have to have. It’s called Context Search and I like it so much that it’s the first FireFox plugin that I reinstall after a catastrophic hard drive failure. 😉 This simple little (9k) tool helps you easily research terms found within a web page.

Here’s how it works, let’s say you’re minding your own business, reading your favorite blog, when all of a sudden, WHAM! you run into an unfamiliar word like “apoptosis”. Quick, what do you do? …

Those who know me, know that I make some bad-assed Buffalo chicken wings. It’s a hobby of sorts. Well lately I’ve been saving the very tips of the wings (gross nasty parts you don’t want to eat) to make chicken soup. The idea is to boil the wing tips in water for a while, wait until everything breaks down, strain out the yucky chunks and VOILA! you’re left with a yummy yummy chicken broth. At least that’s the theory anyway…

Things were progressing rather smoothly, I’d boiled the wing-tips for a couple hours, let everything cool down and strained the chunks of chicken bits from the broth. Unfortuantely the act of removing the chicken chunks caused all the yucky little fat droplets to mix back in with the broth. I’m not a big fan of fat so I figured I’d heat the broth again until the fats and oils coalesced on top, cool the whole thing down, and then skim off the hardened fats. Seems like a good idea, right? …
