Did you know there are 7,401,196,841,564,901,869,874,093,974,498,574,336,000,000,000 possible combinations to Rubic's Revenge? Back in "the day", I went through the manual and did the step-by-step method shown, tried other methods in purchased books, and, eventually, tore the 3x3 cube apart. The "Revenge" seemed way too complicated.
I did stumble onto (or, was shown, really) a simple set of twists/turns that would eventually solve all the sides if continued.
I can't seem to find that method online and don't remember the name of the method. The early 80's provided a lot of fun things forgotten, didn't they? Don't get me started about Strech Armstrong!

I even remember the cube, wow, that was way back in the 80's! Was never able to solve it but I do remember the kids figured it out. Now you want to remember having fun, way back in the 50's you could go into a store and have a minimum selction of 100 variety of six shooters and holsters, genuine leather. You get them in a single set or if you were good enough, you could get a double set. The emphasis was on "authenic" - now they are plastic, including the holsters and don't even resemble the six shooters that were carried by all the screen legends. You could even point them at one another without having to go to agression counseling - those were the good days! I love your WV today, dawomb or if you seperate it it is Da Womb. Where did you come from, Da Womb!

If you feel the incessant urge,
and your tongue is sharp and quick,
leave a worthless thought for me
whether cool, or fun, or sick.
