I was pretty fascinated with video and computer games as far back as pong and spacewar, but I feel like the earliest game that led me into the kind of tactics-focused rpgs I'm really into now might be the original arcade Double Dragon

Flaming Carrot comic alternate cover

"Yes, Mr. Death... I'll play you a game! But not CHESS!!! Bah... Fooey! My game is JARTS!!!" exclaims Flaming Carrot as he brandishes a Jarts set while sweeping pieces off of a chessboard set up in the middle of a blasted heath with scattered dead trees under a dark and cloudy sky. In the foreground, staring out quizzically at the viewer, is presumably Death, who looks like Vincent Price in pointy sunglasses and a snazzy suit, coat, and hat ensemble.

Below is an article.

A Blast from the Past:

Here's a piece of vintage Carrot memorabilia.

Back in late 1983 I drew this cover for FLAMING CARROT #2. The story was DEATH GETS DRUNK. There's a very cool Swedish movie from the fifties that you always see in film class called THE SEVENTH SEAL. There is a classic scene it it, where a medieval knight plays Death a game of chess to keep his soul. I was goofing on this arty film when I had the Carrot wanting to play Death a game of JARTS.

We did up the ash cans of the issue (ash cans are sort of prototype issues, usually xeroxed and sent to distributors or taken to conventions to promote and "road test" the book) and I was real proud of the wacky reference to the famous Bergman film. When people around here didn't laugh at the cover I assumed it was the obscurity of the film but then some asked "What's jarts?" I soon discovered that a lot of people had never heard of this "lawn" game where you have these rings you lay on the ground and toss the large Javelin like darts into the rings, kind of like horse shoes. It was a fad thing up North when I was growing up and sort of a quintessential '60's thing like hoola-hoops or pez dispensers, very suburban and kitschy but it apparently never made it down South.

Anyway, I redrew the cover a second time using wiffle ball as the gag and everything was fine. I did use the face of Death from the first cover, pasting a xerox of it over the second face because I liked it better.

In Greek mythology, Ate (Ancient Greek: Ἄτη, romanized: Átē, lit. 'Delusion, Recklessness, Folly, Ruin') is the personification of moral blindness and error. She could blind the mind of both gods and men, leading them astray. Ate was banished from Olympus by Zeus for blinding him to Hera's trickery denying Heracles his birthright. Homer calls Ate the daughter of Zeus, while Hesiod has Ate as the daughter of Eris (Strife).

regret to inform you that someone at Wikipedia thinks this (this is from the list article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...; the article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBTQ_(... puts the change in the 2000s and attributes it to feminism)
from Wikipedia - "GLBT – Commonly used until the 1980s. The L was placed first in honor of lesbians who provided care and donated blood during the AIDS Crisis, and LGBT became the dominant spelling.[15][16]"

thanks, duck duck go
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A 1700 map of Asia dividing "Great Tartary" into "Muscovite Tartary", "Chinese Tartary", and "Independent Tartary"

The Tartarian Empire or Great Tartaria is a group of pseudohistorical conspiracy theories, including ideas of a "hidden past" and "mud floods", which originated as pseudoscientific Russian nationalism. The globalized version of the conspiracy theory is based on an alternative view of architectural history. Adherents propose that demolished buildings such as the Singer Building, the original New York Penn Station, and the temporary grounds of the 1915 World's Fair in San Francisco were actually the buildings of a vast empire based in Tartary that has been suppressed from history. Sumptuously styled Gilded Age buildings are often held out as really having been built by the supposed Tartaria. Other buildings, such as the Great Pyramids and the White House, are further held out as Tartarian constructions. The conspiracy theory only vaguely describes how such a supposedly advanced civilization, which had reputedly achieved world peace, could have fallen and been hidden.[5][6] Proponents of the theory also frequently claim that Tartarians have developed unlimited wireless energy.[1]

The Balsinger Ford dealership was built in 1929. The building was restored in 2007 and became known as the Egyptian Event Center. Before that, the building had been used as an office for Cell-Tech, a holiday donation center for the Salvation Army, and a warehouse. There was a roof collapse in 2007 from heavy snow but it was confined to the back part of the building. The building remained vacant until it was demolished in 2016.
