I was so excited when I learned that Rock Band would be released for the Wii this June. But, as I feared, it turns out that there will not be any downloadable content for the Wii version of the game, just as there wasn’t for Guitar Hero 3:
“When developing Rock Band for the Wii platform, […]

As we all know, today is Super Tuesday, and the results are starting to roll in.
What you may not know is that tomorrow is Super Wednesday: the day that Karaoke Revolution will be released for the Wii.
I have mine on pre-order. Do you?
A few things on my mind today:
Why, when viewing the website for any retail store, is it always so hard to find the “Store Locator” link?
How is it that, after 7 years in office surrounded by fully literate people, our illustrious president still hasn’t learned to pronounce the word “nuclear”? (he made a speech in […]
“I hate UPS. I hate so many things.”
So said my disgruntled husband today, upon seeing the following status for his package on UPS.com:
Your package has experienced an exception.
Awesome. I couldn’t write better error text if I tried.

One phrase I constantly hear in the office that drives me absolutely nuts is “super excited.” I think this is a Microsoft-ism (and I feel like it started within the last year and a half or so), although Microsoft isn’t alone in its “super excited” disease (see Steve Jobs, students at Isaac Middle School, some random OJ […]
Things I am currently addicted to:
Wii Tennis
Karaoke Revolution Party
Peanut Butter Pretzels from Trader Joe’s
Scrabulous
Pluots
Kenny got me a fantastic early birthday present: a Nikon D40 digital SLR. It arrived yesterday, and I’m eagerly awaiting the weekend when I’ll have more time to play with it (and actually start learning how to use it).
Of course there are very few gifts that we can give each other these days that are completely unselfish, […]
In a nostalgic mood after writing my last post, I just purchased Sam & Max Hit the Road on eBay. My friend Damian also recently told me about the new series of Sam & Max games that Telltale Games is working on. Looks like they’ve already released five episodes, at $8.95 a pop. The episodic video game […]
