Goofing Around

Gathering together some of the random and useless stuff that I've goofed around with. Much of it is half-baked and not very "polished" at all ... which just means I have an excuse to spend more time goofing with it when I have the time.

Regular Expression Runner
A quick JavaScript hack for executing regular expressions - handy if you're stuck working on a computer that can't handle them.
What to Cook?
A quick randomizer I put together to help me through the days when I can't make the simple decision of what to feed myself.
Stymie
A JavaScript game, put together as an exercise in object-oriented programming, that I've wasted far too much time on coding and playing.
Mnemonic Challenge
This JavaScript game challenges the user to match colors in sets of three, relying on memory and trial-and-error problem solving.
MineSweeper
This is yet another "minesweeper" game that is coded, rather badly, in JavaScript. It's from back in 1995, so it's rather sloppy.
Invincible Tic-Tac-Toe
A simple tic-tac-toe game written in JavaScript. (Another leftover from the mid-nineties, so beware.)
Anagrammer
A JavaScript utility for creating anagrams without server-side processing.
JavaScript Encryption
This is a simple widget I knocked out for using single-key encryption on the client side, along with a challenge for hackers/crackers to break the cyphers it creates.
