text only "where's waldo?"

permalink | cm(0) | tb(0) | weird web

i remember in 5th grade the "where's waldo?" book in our school library was so popular that after it was returned the librarian would hide it in the library somewhere and whoever could find it got to check it out. this further affirmed to me that dewey's decimal system really wasn't useful and that she could have done that with every book in the whole library and no one would have ever noticed. in any event, now i don't have to search a library for a "where's waldo?" book, i can play the text only version online.
