WiiView: Pirates Hunt for Blackbeards Treasure!

While the wii is out visiting the repair shop (no word yet on when its due back) I thought I’d go ahead and do something I’ve been meaning to do for a while… Review some games. You’ll notice I’m not a hard core gamer. Most of my games are games the kids can play as [...]

Bricked Wii!

Ever have something happen that you know shouldn’t have happened? This past weekend I was playing with the wii on the new TV in the NEW media room and I decided to do a system update. I hadn’t done one in a while on the wii and I thought that now would be as good [...]

The dropped ceiling is fixed, the walls have been painted, new carpet is going in… The crap that was junking the room has been thrown away, given [...]

Get Fit!!

I’ve never been on the cutting edge of gaming technology. I bought my first nintendo second hand from a friend years after it first came out. We had a Sega Genesis that I never really did much with and Amy and I still have an original Play Station that we fire up once a year [...]

Scuba from your couch!

I’ve been a certified Scuba diver since I was 14. I’ve been diving a total of 5 times (thats in about 15 years). I’ve introduced Amy to snorkling (we’ve even bought our own snorkel gear) and she likes it enough that she’s willing to get dive certified as well when we have the time and [...]
