Ha! I have 167 postings on my website, out of which 138 are actual posts (not just stuff about what I’m reading or playing on the Wii). Dan is jealous because I have more posts. Ha ha ha! I’m a better blogger!
Well, Nintendo sure got it right when they made the Wii because now EVEN MY PARENTS have one. While eating breakfast yesterday at the Pancake House with Dan, Henrik, Andrea and Dan Lew, my sister calls Dan. They were at Toys ‘R Us and they had a question about the Wii. I [...]

Today, I [...]
