The Wii Conspiracy?

This is a Nintendo Game Boy that is enshrined on the second floor of the Nintendo World Store in NYC. Why is it enshrined? Well, it survived a fire during the Gulf War and came home still tickin’.

I had the opportunity to visit it (once again) yesterday as I was doing a favor for a friend in Central PA–inquiring about the availability of Nintendo Wiis.

Fortunately, things have changed since I acquired my Wii in December 2006; people no longer wait overnight outside of Rockefeller Center for these consoles. Things haven’t changed entirely, though, as I was told that the wait still exists–the line starts two hours before the store opens, and they sell out every morning within an hour.

How do they get new shipments in daily? Are they rationed out? Perhaps the upcoming X-Files movie will answer these questions…

Lost in Babble Goes Live

Lost In Babble

I’ve always wanted to play around with a Webcomic, and Thing-a-day 2008 is affording me that luxury. The characters are slowly evolving while I settle on a style I like, and the color palette is…atrocious (what do you want for a daily comic on the fly?!). Unfortunately, it’s not been comic-a-day with some of the jobs I’ve been trying to get out (and the fact that I’ve been bedridden with a stomach flu I caught in Harrisburg), but I hope to update it as often as possible this month. Assuming I’m not drained of ideas come March, I’ll probably switch to doing it on a weekly format. Check out Lost in Babble.
