Mines in Space!
If you like Minesweeper and you have an iPhone, you need this game. Between this and Bejeweled, I’ll never be bored again. It’s got your classic Minesweeper, sure, but it’s also got three other variations on the theme. I like “Imposter” the best, where you have to spot the aliens hiding amongst the boulders. Rodd prefers the hardest one of the bunch: “Rocket Shuffle.” It’s as if the columns on a normal Minesweeper board were shuffled like a slot machine, and you have to line them up the correct away again. He got the logic of it immediately, but it takes me a lot longer to recognize the patterns. There’s also a “challenge” mode at the end where you have to progress through 100 of the other challenges. The graphics and sounds are great, but my favorite thing is the trophy wall where you unlock achievements. Seriously, this is one of the best apps I’ve purchased. (And it’s on sale now!)

Oscar Contest 2009
We’ve passed 400 entries in the Oscar Contest! Of course, I’ve already had to clean several duplicate and suspect entries out of there. “One entry per person” means just what it says. You can’t enter again a few days later. Get it?
Update: Entries are now closed! We ended up with 459 in total. Good luck everybody!

I won something!
Holy crap! I won a major award! Okay, well not major. But I did win some awesome electronic kitchen scales in the Grab Your Fork 1000 Posts Giveaway. Out of 852 entries, my little email was one of 8 that got picked! And even better, that’s actually the prize that I wanted the most. What a good way to start the week…

Oscar Contest – last chance!
There’s less than 24 hours til the 2009 Oscar telecast begins, which means you’d better enter my Contest if you haven’t already! It seems a lot of folks have left it til the last minute, and the number of entries has been climbing rapidly this week. We’re up to 360!
As usual, I’m asking if any of you with Tivos would be willing to volunteer to report on the number of dead people in the annual tribute montage. With this many entries, I think the tie breaker is going to be really important! (Unless there’s an upset. COME ON, UPSET!)
