Welcome all to another edition of The 8 Ball! It’s the holiday season and with the holidays comes food….lots of food. With this in mind, I wanted to talk about games that are either about food or having a lot of food in them. The one game not on this list is Pizza Connection which a friend of mine loves but I never played it. Let’s begin:
#8: Foodfight If you just want to get to the end of a level in Foodfight, it’s simple, just kind of run to the ice cream cone and avoid enemies. But the real fun of Foodfight is collecting the food that is laying around the levels and just throwing it at the enemy cooks to score big points. It’s not the most complicated game in the world but the simplicity is why it’s still pretty fun to this day.

piece out today about the corporate structures of his holdings that make it very hard to penetrate what exactly they are. take a listen to this. president-elect donald trump owns a helicopter in scotland. to be more precise, he has a trust that owns 99% of a delaware limited liability company that owns 99% of another delaware llc that owns a scottish limited company that owns another scottish company that owns the 26-year-old sirkoski-x helicopter emblaoned with the red trump on the side of its fuselage. are there requirements for us to know what it is he owns? chris, i was privileged to talk to the journal as they put that story together. his corporate structures remind me of the flowcharts they used to put up in the pizza connection in the mafia prosecution cases decades ago. this incredibly complex
for the release of army sergeant bowberg dal. bergdahl was charged with desertion. he didn t like the mansion. remember the pizzacrust that rinkd him. his attorneys say he s incapable of murder and the pizza connection is a hurried analysis. police believe he did not act alone in the murder of the savvapolous family and their housekeeper. sharks attack two beachgoers on the same day. one of the attacks happened in the new smyrna area on the east coast. a 19-year-old woman was bitten on her foot. she was not seriously hurt. the second attack was 60 miles
so now people are taking everything he says seriously, whether he likes it or not. as to whether you like what he s saying or not, that s entirely up to you. keeping them honest, whatever political position you happen to have, the question for herman cain or anyone wanting to be president is this, can you be a serious candidate without serious scrutiny of what you say and how you say it? here s what he said saturday about illegal immigration. i tell you what, when i m in charge of the fence, we re going to have a fence, it will be 20 feet high and have barbed wire on the top, it will be electrocuted electrified. and there s going to be a sign on the other side that said, it will kill you. herman cain at a campaign stop in tennessee on saturday. sunday on meet the press, he said, just joking. on immigration, you said it at an event in tennessee that you would build an electrified fence on the border that could kill people if they try to cross illegally. that s a jo
