Two-Player Game I ready myself for the wave I know is coming. We have failed this level countless times. In all fairness, Arachne’s Revenge is a hard game, but I never could have prepared myself for this. Do you know the myth of Arachne?

Athena won the contest and transformed Arachne into a spider, free to weave away at her web…

In this period of time, Antonin wrote his first compositions, short polkas.

Thank goodness you are here officer Ramponi. I was robbed while I was in my backyard karaoking and choreographing to Miley Cyrus’s song, “Wrecking Ball”. I was in the middle of the song about to jump on the wrecking ball when I saw a man holding one of my favorite art pieces.

I am going to file a robbery report and I am going to describe to you my art piece because I am going to need it back as soon…

I love this photo because my dog Rosie looks as if she is smirking. I am wearing a polka dot dress and I have a wide smile on my face. I might also consider bringing some photos of famous landmarks because I don’t ever want to forget all the places I have been and the people I have…
