Okay, I'm sure there are brighter ideas out there. But if anyone knows any good puzzlers that we haven't used here, post them for me please.
Because to be honest, my other thought was to start a diet and complain to him each day about how its going so far..as a means to distract him.. and somehow or other , i can't help thinking that might not be the way to go here...:rolleyes:
Do you have So Doku over there - the Times has an interesting variant that would keep him occupied for hours
