They just announced that Pope John Paul II died.

I'm a tad embarrassed that the show I was watching, when they interrupted to announce his passing, was 'Revenge Of The Nerds'.

Does anyone else remember when they used to play 'Electric Circus' (or as I always called in, Sluts On Parade) after the countdown on Friday nights?

Does it make any sense that they won't allow our cows into their country, but an American fast food restaurant is singing the praises of Canadian bacon!?!

I know they're different animals but COME ON!!!

Blog Question Of The Day:

Why do we, as humans, desire so badly the things we can't achieve, while disregarding the truly valuable that is easily within our grasp?

Mt tax refund FINALLY arrived!!

I was just sitting here, watching a show that had a segment that covered the growth of the internet through the late 90's. Now for some reason, this brought to my mind an almost completely unrelated question.

Rather than develop new games for the limited hardware of something like the Gameboy Advance, why not buy up the existing software for games that have become extinct on the computer platform?

Given the level of complexity that the Gameboy Advance is capable of, there should be a wealth of really cool games from the late nineties. For instance:

Commander Keen
Rise Of The Triad
Codename:Iceman
Doom
about a hundred sport or driving games

This is all software that was developed for systems that are less powerful than you can now get in a handheld. The key to success for any gaming platform is having games you can play. Why not scavenge from something that already exists?

Just a thought.

I have to see this movie!!!

Sin City

Who's with me?
