THE WORLD MAP STYLED BY 🌟MARIO🌟 A DINOSAUR MEMORY GAME; MORE SEA MONSTERS

Heya,

What a week. I lead off with my favorite, once again, which is a poor strategy. I'm not...bright. I am, however, very excited about the world reimagined as a Mario map.

I found a super emulator for your touchscreen devices; now you too can be a... Blade Runner. Plus, there's a guide to balancing the professional and creative interests.

We end the issue with video of a robot and a spaceman having a little tiff. Quite amusing.

Enjoy.

Most of the world mapped in Super Mario style.

I have been playing a lot of Mario on the mini SNES lately, so I hope it is actually map done in the style of Mario and not just some problem with my vision.
Please confirm.

Astro: Cancel MUSIC.

CIMON: Don't be mean, please.
Astro: He doesn't know me when I'm mean.
