I think this Clamato energy drink just might be my Kryptonite. Mussst… puke… now.
Edited to add: Max has found an even less appetizing drink, and he’s using it to play “Death Is Not an Option.” I actually voted for the Clamato.

RIP Mr. Wizard. I used to love that show. Fun fact: The two penguins on “Beakman’s World” were named “Don” and “Herb” in his honor.
“Gordon Ramsay crashes a car while trying to herd buffalo.” Now THAT’S an intriguing headline!
The Summer Knitty is up… and it may be the freezing, nasty weather here, but I’m just not feelin’ it. The only designs that really stood out for me were the bloomers and the lion washcloth.
Huh. A public library in the States is becoming the first to drop the Dewey Decimal System. Interesting. I have to say, I’m a “browser” myself and I always found Dewey constricting when moseying along the racks.
This critique of the Wii by a “serious gamer” really annoyed me. He’s worried because he doesn’t think the popular Wii games are as serious or immersive as games for other platforms, and the market will become flooded with low-quality knockoffs. And you know what? He can BITE ME. He sounds exactly like the people the decry Harry Potter as poor literature. They’d rather people didn’t read/play at all, if they’re not going to read/play something deemed acceptable. I also resent the implication that the only reason I prefer Wii Tennis to Gears of War is because I’m too stupid to appreciate the latter. Maybe I don’t play games to have long, immersive experiences. Maybe I just want to relax and have a good time. Is that somehow cheapening the experience of hardcore gamers? Pffft. Whatever. The gaming industry has been stagnant for far too long, and I’m happy that there are finally games that I’m interested in playing.
