Once, when Ken Williams was on a five-hour flight from San Francisco to Montreal on Air Canada, he had a pre-release version of one of the Leisure Suit Larry games on his laptop. The flight attendant noticed, then started to watch him play, and soon was leaning over his shoulder laughing at all the jokes.

A little later, she returned to his seat and said, “The Captain would like to see your game.” So Ken carried his laptop into the cockpit and the Captain (a Larry fan) put the laptop on his lap and we chatted while he played.

Both he and the co-pilot were so entrenched in the game, Ken finally said, “Are you sure this is safe?” They assured him it was, but he was relieved when they stopped playing because the battery ran out.

Yes, children, the times really have changed!
