Okay, on a lighter note,

Who is the author of this poem?
This will prove to be the ultimate literature test! ;)
If you can't get the author, comment on the poem, if you liked it!

Not for the first time
Was that feeling,
So enticing
I've felt it before, of course,
But not with so much force

I've seen her many a time
On Tv,net and playtime!
She's from Switzerland, they said
Sadly, no attention I paid
Quite an infatuation this,
Addictive, she certainly is!

She came home a few days back
My mouth watered as self control, I lack!
Strangely, I wasn't the only one
Others too, were after the precious one!
I thought, Never mind, I'll beat 'em to it,
Else, call me a dimwit!

That night, her cold room I entered,
Ah! There she was, in the centre!
I carefully removed her cover,
Ready to be eaten, me and my Lindt, united forever!

QUESTION 303

X stemmed from the ideas of a man named Wilfred Winkenbach. In the mid-late 1950s, he had developed the first ___ sport, ____ golf, in which each participant would draft a team of professional golfers and the lowest combined score at the end of a tournament would win. He then applied this concept to baseball, using home run hitters and pitching statistics.
The early years involved few leagues, but serious players. Several people stopped after several years, as it was too strenuous looking through statistics every week and remembering to call in with their starting rosters. The game was a fun idea, but had yet to become convenient enough to be the phenomenon it is today.

The convenience came over 30 years later, on the heels of the Internet explosion..

How do we know this concept today?
