I want a Wii, badly.
I’ve been trying to find one since Thanksgiving of last year, when a friend of a cousin who lives far away brought his to our family get-together. My children were enamoured with the fact that you actually “played with the game” rather than “playing the game”. They had hours [...]

So, what do you think she’d say about these beautiful pink diamond studs? Well, guess what? These are cultured diamonds (from DiamondsCultured.COM). And, yes they are [...]

This is absolutely the worst book that I have ever read. It’s not Burroughs’ writing style that’s at issue here - I actually think he’s a very good writer.

Sorry, I don’t buy it. Carly knew perfectly well going into the job that the HP Board was dysfunctional. All the warning signs were there - they fired her predecessor, they were removed from most of the hiring process, etc. You simply can’t justify the argument that the board was in [...]
