As good a guess as any

“Holts are nearly always close to the sea,
fallen boulders, old ruins, and cliffs,
all at the top of a [sand crevice?],
high above the sea:
a safe place for cubs.
We wait … tense. We’re disappointed.
She leaves her [sprint?] loaded by others of us
The holts are evenly spread, about 500 meters apart,
[some warped speech] who passes by, or they (advertise?)”

The lyrics of Boards of Canada’s An Eagle in Your Mind, according to lyrics time.

Get Rich Quick With Pub Games Glitch

The Fable 2 Pub Games Xbox Live Arcade includes rather a neat idea to encourage would-be adventurers to download the game. Money won in the pub games can be transferred to Fable 2 when it comes out in the autumn. However, a bug has been discovered that allows for bigger winnings than planned. The pub games were great fun in the original Fable. Having finished Braid, this is my next likely XBLA fodder.
