Get your free copy of Broken Sword!
This isn't J-related, it's just something that brings back a lot of fond memories. GOG.com is giving out free copies of Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars to celebrate 6 million downloads. The offer only lasts till October 1 7:59 a.m. EDT (11:59 a.m. GMT), so get it quick.Broken Sword is a point-and-click adventure, and I grew up playing many, many of them and the older text-input adventure games. King's Quest, Space Quest, Police Quest, Quest For Glory, Maniac Mansion, Leisure Suit Larry, Monkey Island, Grim Fandango, Gabriel Knight, Sam & Max. Games tinged with nostalgia. Brings a smile just thinking of them 'back-in-the-days' era but gives me a touch of the sads too :)

I love coffee, but nothing can top a daily fix of teh tarik (｡･ˇ_ˇ･｡) For those of you who don't know about this magic elixir, it's like a more concentrated version of royal milk tea.
