Success!


















On vacation in Tennessee, Ben visited a used book shop and bought "Conquer the Cube" by Jeffrey Varasano for $2. Shortly after arriving home, Ben spent his spare moments with his Rubik's Cube and this book. After several sessions of following the formula, there was great rejoicing as the Cube appeared before my eyes in six squares of color. Behind it was a handsome face grinning ear-to-ear annoucing that that was the best $2 he ever spent! Ever introduced your kids to the elusive challenge from the 80's?

Wasn't the full title of the book "Conquer the Cube in 45 Seconds"? Is Ben now going for speed? Uncle Scott was happy to see this post.

Mind you, this is from someone who never got past the first few moves with Rubik...which says more about my brain - I'd rather do word or computer games.

Way to go, Ben!

LOL, I can't believe it's still out there. I have a google alert email me whenever my name is mentioned online. Usually it's business stuff, but I had to chuckle when I saw this cube post.

I would also like to achieve that success.
