“I can’t get the horse to let me up to get that thing and I can’t get to the man!” said my coworker.
We’re smack in the middle of another busy news cycle on Monday, and we’re both dinking around with today’s Google Doodle, a charming mini-video game that lets you guide a little lost alien through a grainy farmscape on his way back to wherever.
Basically, it’s a point-and-click puzzle/adventure game. It’s just adorable. We won’t tell you how to solve it, but the nerds over at Pocket-lint will.
Don’t say VB never did anything to help you get over a case of the Mondays, folks.
The doodle comes to us on this day to commemorate the 1947 Roswell UFO incident, when the Army found a flying disk in the New Mexico desert. The Air Force said it was a weather balloon … or was it?
That weird moment in American history has made Roswell a freak tourist destination for decades and is now the subject of another awesome Google Doodle. Go to Google.com to play it for yourself.
