Dudette was talking to her boss not too long ago. It turns out that when her boss is traveling on business, puzzles are the "let-down" or decompression from a long day of meetings and negotiations. And Dudette got turned on to the number one puzzle: "SUDOKU".
These are a logic "fill in the number" type puzzle. Like a "Jumble" only with numbers. They seem to keep Dudette occupied and she is enjoying them.
In case you want to check them out, go to http://play.websudoku.com or www.websudoku.com.
They aren't as easy as they look but they are kind of fun. They will keep you focused once you start on them.
Figures an accountant would find playing with numbers as a fun way to relax after a hard day at work.
Hobbies happen.
Hunky Husband has been doing the Sudoku puzzles from the London Times ever since Val gave the link on her Moment after Moment blog http://momentaftermoment.blogspot.com/2005/08/su-doku.html on August 2, 2005. It only took one puzzle to hook HH. I haven't tried them. They just don't look that interesting to me (or, maybe I'm just too lazy!) I'm sure that HH will be happy to find another source. We both suggested that the Beagle start publishing them, a few weeks ago when they were polling their readers.

Sorry folks. Some people get addicted to these. I personally can't seem to get into them. I live for the "Jumble" though. Irritates Dudette cause I usually do them without writing the stuff down.
Picked that up from my dad and an old supervisor I had. Both loved to do them and we would race.
