Just what I needed :P

Apparently not everyone can get to the Alpha Shade site. Not sure WHY, but my server guys are looking into it. It's extremely difficult to troubleshoot because most people, including myself, can see it just fine.

This happened before early last year, hopefully we'll be able to fix it in a few days.

No Nintendogs for Boris!



So I got a Nintendo DS for my Birthday. I only have one game for it right now; Nintendogs.
If you don't know about Nintendogs, it's basically a puppy simulator, but it's very interactive. The DS has a touch pad and a mic input that is used extensively to train and play with your puppy. You teach it tricks using voice commands , you call it to you using the name you taught it, you call it a good dog etc. Almost immediately you are using encouraging "pet speak", "Sit!" "Good DOG!" "Come here!" etc. My Cats HATE this game, almost as soon as I turn it on they are crying and giving me these hurt looks. It's really kind of sad. I really haven't had the time to play it much anyway because of Alpha Shade, but I think I'll have to get a game that is less disturbing to my flesh and blood pets and maybe just play this one when I'm on the road or something.

Chris Trip Pics

As most of you know Chris is an engineer on the railroad ( he drives the trains.) He's taken a lot of pictures with his digital camera and he's always sending them to me, so I figured I'd put some up for your viewing pleasure!
