Icarus Proudbottom Teaches Typing

I found this one an amusing take on learn to type programs - it keeps you going with a narrative, so there's a story of sorts there. Also, there's some funny bits and strange lines of text to type. It's off just enough to be interesting but not so much that you'll have trouble recommending it. Playable in both browser and download forms, and fairly easy to play through too - give it a go!

Beatrix: Battle Dentist

Kind of a cute concept but didn't keep me interested for very long. You run along the teeth to clean them and use your mouse/LMB to shoot a fluoride gun at yellow blocks and nasties running around. The name of the game (Battle Dentist) is pretty awesome - it's worth a try just for that.

Found on the Oddities blog (http://odditie-s.tumblr.com/post/58548453365/beatrix-battle-dentist)

Molson Old Style Pilsner

I found this one while visiting my folks up north. Have not seen it around Toronto at all. Figured I would give it a shot since you never know with these things, maybe it would be a gem.  At first I thought I got a sense of saaz hops and was optimistic, however as I got further and further into it all I was able to taste was sweetness, like corn syrup was added (or some other adjunct). It is not something I would pick again under normal circumstances - not with much better pilsners being available (steam whistle, King brewery, even Creemore) for a similar price point. Disappointing.
