Reminds me of 9th grade homeroom. For a brief, shining moment, obsessive geeks like myself could let it all hang out and earn the praise of fellow students.

There were about four of us in my homeroom who could all do it in under a minute (how pubescent!). One trick was to swap two stickers before mixing up the cube and handing it to an adversary. Very nasty.

OK, so those weren't really good days, after all; but solving the Cube first thing in the morning before an appreciative audience was still a nice way to start the day.
