So who got Sudoku puzzles
for the holidays? I'm addicted. Found out that one of the people I had gotten a Sudoku magazine had already gotten a Sudoku book from someone else, so I'm ready to appropriate that gift for myself. Sigh.

1. i got a sudoku
book for my friend. he loves it.

i for one am not touching it. i hear it's like crack, but without the danger.

and listen, if you ever need money to buy more sudoku puzzles, please don't burglarize my house, ok? or approach me with sexual favors for money :P

8. I'm with you.
My parents are both hooked on that shit, and just from watching them, I've resolved never to go near it.

2. My mom did.
She got a book, and I got her an electronic one. She's hopelessly addicted. :)

6. They had a Sudoku generator gadget at a local drug store.
I thought about buying it...

Really cheap! Did 6x6's up to 9x9's.

I typically do the one in the back of the paper.

One every day or so is all I can handle! I'm a lightweight.

LOL!

I'd never really done them, but yesterday I sat down and did three in about an hour. They're addicting! It's not fair!

13. Addict alert
there are tons of free Sudoku puzzles on the internet. You can mine the archives from them. Try guardian.co.uk, among others. The USA Today url is posted above.

14. It's been suggested that Sudoku can hinder the progression of
Alzheimer's disease. So at least the addiction may be beneficial. :)
