You didn't plan on working today anyway, right?

Breakout began as an arcade game developed by Atari, Inc in April of 1976. Prior to other incarnations, such as Super Breakout, etc., the original shows eight rows of bricks, with each two rows a different color. The original color order, from the bottom up, was yellow, green, orange and red. You then used a single ball to destroy the layers with a paddle without losing the ball. While it's no Ms. Pac Man or Pong, Breakout does hold a spot in the heart of many a gamer.
