My unhealthy addiction to solitaire

By Justin | December 29, 2008

I am guilty of indulging in the huge waste of time that is solitaire; particularly, any of the 30 varieties included in Smallware’s Solebon Solitaire, which—if you’re looking for a solitaire app for the iPhone that is both a joy to play and very artfully done—you’ll want to buy (c’mon, it’s only $1.99).
