...game based on Larry Niven's classic sci-fi novel Ringworld, and you'll notice fingerprint marks on triple-glazed windows. Or check out Oddworld, one of the laugh-out-loud funniest video games in a long time. The scaly textured reflective skin on the alien heroes, Abe and Munch, is easily up to Jurassic Park standards...
...second half of the program consisted of Maurice Ravel’s ballet Daphnis and Chloe, performed in its entirety. This is yet another BSO specialty; former music directors Koussevitsky and Charles Munch conducted the Second Suite from the ballet a total of 224 times between 1925 and 1965.

...enjoy myself. I constantly have an idea of what's going on in Cambridge. I know what Irish people are doing around here." Stop by The Field any day of the week and forget about cover charges. As long as you order something to drink, you're solid. Munch on one of the startlingly good appetizers as you imbibe to the live Celtic music. The 75%-25% mix of Cambridge residents to college students also sets the place apart from Harvard Square watering holes...
