Ever since Sammar introduced me to Pacman on the WWW (ebaumsworld.com/pacman.html), I have not been able to stop playing. I am obsessed with prolonging Pacman's life and consuming more and more pellets on his behalf. I can't sleep at night because I am concocting inventive strategies to maximize Pacman's fruit and pellet intake while circumventing the ghosts.

Now I've come to a realization of why I am so thoroughly invested in Pacman's destiny. I AM Pacman! I am round and scared of ghosts, and all I want is to be left alone so I can eat. And while I have no particular interest in confrontation, God help anyone who comes and tries to interfere with any of my distinguished pursuits -- I will eat them alive at their weakest moment!

On to the next round.
