Video trailer for a new Xbox 360 game called Alpine Legend that came out on Wednesday. It is to yodeling what Guitar Hero is to guitar playing. Awesome!
Stuff that happened, stuff that didn't really happen, and mildly amusing observations. The kind that make you smile to yourself or chuckle quietly, but not actually laugh out loud.
What does "Spike the Wave" mean? Nothing. Everything. Contention. Tranquility. It just is.

Wii're Having Fun
My wife, Sarah (with an "h"), called me a few days ago with some exciting news: "Honey, we're having a baby!" "There are some Nintendo Wii games consoles in stock, and it's okay with me to get one!"
Thanks to the van's onboard transporter, Bennett (aka "Newbie Driver") and I were soon standing at a cash register waiting to buy a Wii game console + a Wii game, both of us grinning like a cat that'd just figured out how to open a hamster cage door.
When we got home, first I showed Tim (aka "Triple T") a Mario Brothers Wii game we also got.
Triple T said, "Dude, why'd ya git a wee game when wee kan't play it?" (Tim doesn't spell well when he's talking.)
I motioned for Newbie Driver to come into the rec room (aka "The Teen Cave") and show Triple T the Wii console we just bought. Triple T just sat there smiling the biggest grin of his brief life... like a hamster that'd just figured out how to boobytrap a hamster cage door.
Soon, both Triple T and Newbie Driver were setting up, configuring, arguing (I mean "discussing"), and then playing games on the Wii.
When I went upstairs, I think I heard what sounded like a soft crying or whimpering sound coming from the older game consoles, now forgotten.
next week: The Sega Genesis and the Nintendo 64 stage a protest.
