    Take a swing at the Penguin!
    Poor penguin.

    Just something silly to keep you all amused for a few moments.

    Can you hit the penguin? Just click on the yeti to get the penguin to drop down, then click on the yeti again to swing the bat and hit the penguin. How far did the penguin go? What is your best distance?

    Ok I only hit him once but I got a measly 201.3. I'm a wuss. It took me three darn swings before I even hit the bird! All right, I need to go take out some more frustration on Mr. Featherbrain. Thanks Roobs :D

    Crap, I must have had a finger spasm from all that penguin wailing. Can every one else see that? Can I get rid of one of my dummy double posts?

    Haha. Glad you both like it too. My best was 315.5. I have managed to duplicate that score and get a 311 but that is as high as I have been able to go.
