I lost my copy of the original **Lemmings** game several years ago, and now I can’t find any place that carries it. Is there anyplace on the Net I can play it?

I saw a great cartoon concerning lemmings in the Boston Globe a few days ago. A mother lemming is scolding her son:  
“Oh and if your friend Johnny _didn’t_ jump off a cliff, would that stop _you_ from jumping off a cliff too ?”

Totally off topic but the original question has been answered.

I used to have the _National Lampoon_ album but lost it years ago.
