A eulogy... wii!

So, let the video game wars begin! My roommate just hooked up his brand-spanking-new Nintendo Wii, and might I say, "Dude!" Just to break the situation down for those who haven't been paying attention to these recent developments, I'll just mention the fact the Wii is equipped with a special controller called a "wii-mote." This little device is what makes the machine so revolutionary. First off, it's wireless, probably a good move given that everything is wireless these days. Second, it uses motion sensors to enable a player to act as a puppet master. If you move your arm left, so does your virtual character. Pretty cool, right? And if you apply those properties to your average shoot-em-up game, you get the opportunity to feel like you're actually killing people! All those purient impulses are one step closer to being fully realized.

I am eagerly awaiting for someone I know to acquire the Playstation 3, which is apparently worth an attempted homicide charge.

Also, Milton Friedman is dead. The invisible hand of the free market must have finally strangled him. . . .
Too soon?

Hello Again

Okay....I know.....I'm sorry. But I'm back to update as frequently as I can. So here's a link for all you Literature Majors.

Mr. Pynchon's new novel comes out this month, I and I'm as excited as a New York Times book reviewer! Prepare yourself for many pretentious adjectives after I finish reading it.
