 * Despite the good answers so far, I suggest you ask at the Language Desk, as they are less likely to choke when asked to present a "gag gift" synonym. StuRat 17:04, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

What happened to Jonathan Berkery?
Looking for information about Jonathan Berkery. (Illegitimate) son of singer Tom Jones, born 1988. Found some very limited info about him online indicating he was starting a singing career a few years ago, but all info was several years old. Could not find anything current. Appreciate any info. Thanks. ````SnoopyDd````

Atari ST game
I'm trying to remember the name of an Atari ST game which involved fighting skeletons on a beach. I think maybe your character was a pirate? --80.7.187.97 22:20, 30 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Dunno. Have you tried looking through our list of Atari ST games?--Shantavira|feed me 17:27, 1 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Sounds a lot like it could've been Skull and Crossbones, which a quick search on www.atari.st (great site for ST fans, btw) tells me was published in 1991 by Domark. I only ever played the demo of it, but it was a one or two player fighting/brawling game (kind of like Golden Axe, but more free-roaming), the player characters were pirates, and as I recall somewhere near the start of the game you were on a beach with skeletons popping up out of the ground. I think when you killed them they dropped coins. --Monorail Cat 23:48, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
