Mr. Bungle – The Air Conditioned Nightmare
i'm currently having the opposite problem as our house doesn't seem to be keeping heat. after spending SO MUCH [redacted] [redacted] TIME trying to wrap all the windows (dear lord, is that what my parents went through?), it'd better work.

Loading... there is a Timberwolves game tonight. 7pm
they are playing Brooklyn.
The Wolves are in last place in the Northwest Division, yet 10th overall in the West.
fun fact! Sweet Lou Amundson's 'true shooting percentage' ( a measure of shooting efficiency that takes into account 2-point field goals, 3-point field goals, and free throws.) is a .295 . Every time he hoists the ball up toward the basket, there is less than a third of a a chance it goes in.
Lets see if the Wolves can get a victory. As Tom Petty wrote 'even the losers, get lucky sometimes'

Pixel Perfect Memories: Fatherhood
My last column before my life changes forever, I won't be reviewing an actual game today. My blog is still churning out reviews. If you have an interest in adventures games, check out the current countdown, where I have already detailed a game where you play characters in Edgar Allen Poe stories, another where you play a transgendered character, and not to mention the always lovable bunny and canine detectives.
While I suspect I'll have much less time to play games than I used to, I imagine over the course of the next fifteen years the ones I do play I'll enjoy more. I also imagine I'll be way more efficient with my free time than I am now. My goal to get a PS3 is now shot, but I may make more use of my DS.
For those in the nation that are fathers and still find time for games, how do you fit them in? Do you enjoy playing more than you used to? Do you involve the family more? What did you give up?
Whatcha' playing?
