Danyl Johnson, 27-year Old Teacher, Takes The Show


Ah yes! It's a teacher! God Bless all the teachers and the talented ones, too! You know there are so many out there. Teachers, if they've got some zing, are truly talented. For example...DANYL JOHNSON! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Dang! The guy can saaaang! He was awesome. I mean, please take a moment to search for him on YouTube by just typing in his name. He totally rocked the show. That song is not easy to sing AND make everyone feel blown away by it. It's a plain and simple song but he rocked out. Simon Cowell gave a standing ovation and that's all that matters, eh? Take see...some the hype about him in the last several days.

How To Master Bejeweled Blitz

It is no wonder how & why this game has become the most mesmerizing, time-consuming, addictive, zoning, whatever...phenomena of the Facebook world. And for those of you who are so addicted, you no doubt bought and downloaded it to your personal computer when the program crashed a short while ago, forcing the creater to fix the glitches, hence, offering a 50% off discount for a little while after this glitch was fixed. That has, nevertheless, kept you sucked into this wondrous, beautiful, and MOST FRUSTRATING game (at times). C'mon, you know I'm right!

So, how do you master this game? Well, there are a few theories. I will share two. Number One. Just make your eyes move super fast and find all the combinations and if you are lucky, please find the combinations that give you a hypercube. BUT STILL keep moving fast. Number Two...Oooo...save the multipliers because it takes 10 seconds for a next multiplier to drop once a previous one has come out. And do your best to explode the multipliers one after the other right away while still making your eyes move super fast to find the 3, 4, and 5 shape combos!

Okay. That's it. Otherwise, in all honesty, it is PURE LUCK ladies and gentlemen. Please. I have had many of my addicted friends tell me that the game just kept going and cascading. It's all in the luck of the drop friends. You think you are skilled? Maybe a little. But how did my one friend get over 1,000,000 points and she barely could understand how to play.

Another bit of food for thought...why in the world are you spending hours at a time playing this silly game when you have homework to do, an essay to write, children to feed, laundry to clean, bills to pay, a workout to complete...what can be more important. Think about it for a minute. What has gotten you so sucked into this game? What is lacking in your life? What makes you stay and watch the colorful screen, hear the sexy computerized voice say "good", "excellent", "incredible", and more. Who is this voice? Does anyone know?

I don't know. But, if you'll excuse me for a minute...I need to log on to Facebook and ummm...see you later. I have something to do...
