If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have lost the use of the right side of my body.

No worries, folks. I can, and do, use both sides of my body. I just am very bad at catchy titles, so I have to resort to lies.

http://community.livejournal.com/customers_suck/ is a hilarious blog. It took me about three posts to figure out that multiple people were blogging on the thing. I was thinking "Man, this guy sure goes through jobs quickly." That's a warning that you should keep in mind when reading. Again: hilarious. I guess the reason I like it so much is because, well, it's fun to laugh at jerks. And then, I realize, in the act of doing that, I become a jerk myself. The irony dawns on me, and then I feel sad. But it's ok, because I realize that 'sad' spelled backwards is 'das', which is German for 'that', so it's all good.

Music wise, I've found out about a band that does covers of old 8-bitty music called the NESkimos. Mario, Mega Man, Zelda... classic video game music goodness, all around. If you want to listen/download their music (for free), you'll need to create a Sound Click account, which is also free.

I've been playing Tetris DS recently, and am doing pretty well online against the world. I've played well over 100 games and am winning almost 75% of the time. It's so addicting.

However, the game that I'm really excited about for the DS is coming out later this week, called Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day. Apparently, they've already made three of these games in Japan and have sold over 5 million copies collectively. But what is so cool about it is that you get to pay $20 (most DS games are $30) to play SuDoKu and perform simple math problems that anyone can do for free with a pen and paper. However, they miss out on a disembodied head telling them how their brain works. Chumps.
