I bought a dartboard a month ago to give me something to fidget with while thinking. Rather than struggle with cricket or any "real" dart game, I've been training myself with a game I call "golf." I go around the numbers in the board, and if I hit the target number in 3 throws, that's "par." If I hit two targets in 3 throws, that's "a birdie," 3 targets with 3 is an "eagle," and if I miss in 3 throws, that's a "bogey" (yes, this is asymmetrical. I said I was a beginner, didn't I?) Today I went around the board and made "par." Hurray for me.

We will now return to our regular programming...
