This is pretty cool:
I was playing this one for a while last night. It's a lot harder than it looks.

Ding dong! The Flash is dead!
Which old Flash? Adobe Flash!
Ding dong! Adobe Flash is dead!
It's gone where the goblins go!
Below! Below!
The toilet bowl!
The bells will ring!
Ding dong! The Merry-O!
Let them know the Flash is dead! -
The article on Flash states:
As lovers of Film we can state:Like any container, Flash itself is not as much of a loss as all the art and creativity it held. Without a Flash player, flash animations don’t work. It’s not like an image or sound file where a more modern player could still make the content accessible in the modern era. If there’s no Flash Player, there’s nothing like Flash, which is a tragedy.

Unless, of course, some one digitizes it...every time a new player comes along every time the player is "no longer supported." At least with the film container, the designers were always careful to make any new changes, backward compatible.
The Museum of the Moving Image in Queens NY always like to do a Oh and Ah demo when they were displaying their early 35mm projectors. They would set up I believe, an Acme 35mm silent projector, circa 1925-1930 and put on a reel of silent B&W film from the same era and also on that reel, they had spliced a 35mm sound film trailer from a current (at the time) 2000 movie. What made that interesting was that the two film, nearly a century apart would play on the screen and with the splice went thru, joining film recorded so many years apart, the splice went thru with nary a hiccup. That is how sacrosanct backward compatibility was to the designers of that film container....until then came digital and they weren't. It will be interesting to see a century from now, if the cinema art of our civilization will be so lucky.Comment

I'm always amazed with what can be done with javascript. Here's a flash player written in javascript.
I have not tried it, though.
Somewhere I have a flash animation called "Windows RG," the Real Good version.
