Fuck yeah, actually. Me and my friend Murt were talking about our Pandora stations the other day, and we were mentioning how we both guess we need to listen to more Journey as they come up on our stations and we like some of their songs. Turns out I think I only like this one so far, but I like it a lot. Anyway, then after reading about the band, major childhood visual memory connection!: I remembered that I always had/played this weird video game when I was a little kid but never knew what it was, thought it was some sort of weird space adventure, and couldn’t understand why I had to run away from the legged hearts in space. Of course I ran at them and died unexpectedly the first time or two that I played (if I recall the game correctly). HAH! Who knew that 25 years later I’d find out what it was.
Looks like they’ll be doing Nintendo DS commercials in the UK, which is pretty appropriate since I believe I remember my girlf telling me that Sarah has commented in the past about her DS-playing. Also, nice to know that Billy Corgan is a fan, don’t know about that “better than the Beatles” comment though.
The Washington Nationals have gone far higher up on my list of baseball teams I like. I just found out that they have President’s Races at the games, where mascot presidents race each other. The funny part is that it seems like Teddy Roosevelt is always in the lead at first but always somehow ends up losing! >:/ (He’s my favorite President for those of you who don’t know) Hahah, check out the Race Standings. They even had this campaign to let him win, with Teddy Roosevelt ‘08 signs! I LOVE IT!! I also love how their numbers are the number President that they were.
We celebrated Emily’s Birthday this past weekend, and put up one of her presents, Donkey Kong re-stiks! Emily was impressed when she saw Char’s awesome Space Invaders ones.
