College Football Bowl Game Swag
Sunday, December 21st, 2008I had heard that the Bowl Games were giving out stuff to the players, but I didn't know how much stuff it really was. Over on Fox Sports, they detail what each bowl is giving out. (The navigation is a bit clunky, as it's a countdown from 20 to 1... ...
Ms. Pac Man Commercial
Sunday, November 23rd, 2008Go here to watch an old-school Ms. Pac Man commercial. This stuff was actually on TV at one time? I was speechless after watching it, not knowing how to even react to it.
Tug-of-war in the Olympics
Saturday, August 2nd, 2008Did you know that Tug-of-war was an Olympic sport until 1920? There sure have been some strange sports as Olympic events.
Games I Like
Saturday, May 3rd, 2008Before I started playing Mario Kart, I stumbled on a few simple online games that I thought were pretty neat. The first one is called Free Rice. The object is easy. You are shown a word. You pick (or guess) from one of the four definitions. If you're right, they donate ...
Julia’s Game Face
Thursday, April 17th, 2008We've had a Wii for a little bit, and I always thought Julia would really like it.

Monday, February 4th, 2008
So I'm watching the Super Bowl now, knowing full well what happens. I only got to see bits and pieces of it, because it was going on Monday morning/afternoon here. Luckily, Fox Sports 3(?!) here is showing it again, but they aren't going to all the commercial breaks you are ...
World Series Thought
Sunday, October 22nd, 2006I'm not watching the [tag]World Series[/tag] this year for a couple reasons. First, I don't really care about the outcome. Second, and more important, I can't stay up that late to watch it. The game doesn't start until about 8:30, and with the trend in games now, it won't end ...
Redneck Hockey
Tuesday, June 20th, 2006So the [tag]Carolina Hurricanes[/tag] won the Stanley Cup last night. While watching the news tonight, I swore I heard some politician annouce to his colleagues that "Redneck Hockey had arrived." A quick search online, and sure enough, Redneck Hockey is alive and well. What, exactly, is "Redneck Hockey?" I'll open the ...
Outsource Game Playing?
Saturday, December 10th, 2005As if outsourcing jobs to India (or out of the U.S.) didn't cause concern for people, online players are outsourcing playing games. The basic idea is this - let someone in China play your games on the easy stuff, then take over from there. Another idea - the kids in ...
