Can you solve a Rubik's Cube? Or could you at one time?

I found one sitting in an old office here this morning and been fiddling with it. I used to be able to solve one, but haven't picked one up in years. All I remember is getting the white cross. Anyone remember the next step before I go to YouTube? I think it was getting the white corners to the white cross side.

I think I did it once and could never duplicate it a second time

Cross, then corners, then second row of the sides, then the bottom.

Now I can just remember the sequence to get the corners.

It's not rocket science, people. Peel stickers off. Reapply stickers accordingly.

The first thing you do is get the 6 middle colors in the right spot. Yellow and white on opposite sides, green and blue on opposite sides and red and orange on opposite sides.

The first thing you do is throw the damn thing at the person that gave it to you.

Yes - my fastest time for a 3x3 cube is 53 seconds. Average is a little under 2 minutes.

Yep. Used to win the speed contest in elementary school doing this. Of course, it was never the same after you reapplied the stickers but I won regardless.

I'd like to run in to Mr. Rubik one day and punch him right in the mouth.

I did it one time using random chaos theory. That was the only time I got it right.

I got it down to about 3-5 minutes years ago. It's pretty easy when you know the strategy and the combinations at the end.

It's basically the Contra cheat code on steroids at the last few moves

Rubik's Cube Juggling World Record

This kid solves three at a time, while juggling them, in just over 5 minutes.

He's going to get all the ladies when he's older.

Well, I tried to solve it and thought I had it, but then I heard a strange horn, and some guys who called themselves Cenobites showed up, then all Hell broke loose.
