So it's been a while since I tracked down some Easter Eggs for you guys, it's actually been since the first post on this blog, so I feel this is long overdue.  Also, an actual post on this blog is overdue, considering my average Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule had been compromised this week, and it's been about a week since you guys have received a blog.  That was due to a finger injury that I had sustained on Saturday, leaving me unable to type as fast as I normally do and left me unable to do the blog for a while, so my apologies.  My finger has been injured pretty bad, so I'm not sure how long it will be before I start posting regularly again.  At the very worst case scenario, I will post about once a week for you guys!  But without further stalling, let's dive into some more Easter Eggs, but this time, in the Super Mario franchise! 1.
