And in gaming news...

Hubbyfink finished "Gears of War 2" last night. It's the first video game he's played to completion. He said he was a little disappointed and wanted to keep on playing when I asked how he felt about that achievement. Yeah, I know what he means; I've played through "Twilight Princess" and "Resident Evil 4" for the same reason (well, that and they're awesome games). He still has "Halo 3" to get into.

I'm still roaming the post-apocalyptic Virginia countryside in "Fallout 3". Found Arlington Cemetery, ransacked Arlington House and the metro stations yesterday. Also found the satellite array up in the northwest and then hit the NW edge of the game world and had to turn back. Ran into three Regulators who called me a villain (oops, I guess my karma's too low) and then shot me down like a dog on the highway. I'm still looking for Reston Town Center. I haven't braved the wilds of Maryland yet, beyond Seneca metro (I crossed a body of water so I'm assuming that was Maryland), nor DC as I got shot at by some Raiders on the DC side when I got too close to the Virginia waterfront.

One of these days I'll unwrap "Left 4 Dead" and get sucked into zombiepocalypse, but I'm pretty happy getting radiation poisoning and hacking giant scorpions and mole rats into tiny bits at the mo'.

Hubbyfink looked up twelve-step programs for FO3 addiction. I told him that chopping off my hands and destroying the game disc are not options.

D and E have been gaming Lego StarWars for the PS2 and the Wii for HOURS lately. So much for being a good role model for the children...LOL
