How Cute Is He?

Wheel Of Fortune: 2nd Edition

I've played every Wheel available for the PC, and this is the worst by far. For starters, audio and video constantly lag, causing freezing. Secondly, even when they do work properly, they're not impressive at all, and are extremely repetitive. Continuing the negative, the repetition monster rears its head again when it comes to puzzles. Even though the above box promises 2,500 new ones, you'll quickly find yourself solving them without a single letter on the board. Game options offered are few, and don't positively enhance the experience. Lastly, and probably most irritating of all, computer intelligence. Unless you're playing with a couple friends or family members, don't even bother. The computer player is beyond stupid, and will provide absolutely no competition. All and all, as you've likely already surmised, stay as far away as possible from this terrible edition of America's Game.

Two...

Just a quick update. This weekend, at a concert in her honor, Barbra sang two songs from her forthcoming, yet-to-be-named album. I'll Never Say Goodbye, and The Windmills Of Your Mind. It's always so exciting when new material is on the horizon!

Funday Sunday!

Was so nice to go to the farm yesterday! Hadn't been in a while, and missed everyone! The oldest nephew and I played with matchbox cars, and told stories for a good portion of the afternoon. Wanted some pictures since it's been a while since I've posted anything new. Love that Lily was caught in the middle of a belly laugh in the first one. The vanilla cake with cream cheese frosting was an amazing treat. Just delicious! What a wonderful day!

My Mother's Curse!

After months of speculation and rumors, Barbra has been confirmed as starring in My Mother's Curse alongside Seth Rogen. Shooting is slated to begin this spring. While I won't give any major spoilers away, Streisand and Rogen play mother and son in the comedy. It'll be wonderful to see Barbra star in a comedic film again.

Awestruck!

I know. You're saying to yourself, "How could he be awestruck at the sight of a production truck?" While it may sound silly, I totally was. This was just the beginning of a night of pinching myself to make sure I was awake. Just amazing!

Del Rio!

His name... his name is Alberto Del Rio, and he is the next World Heavyweight Champion! I predicted his Rumble win, and now I'm going on record saying that he will defeat Edge at Wrestlemania.

March 21st...

A final airdate of March 21st has been announced for Melissa Claire Egan and Annie. I still don't want to believe it. As I said in the previous post on this subject, Annie is my biggest reason to tune in everyday. With her gone, there won't be a single storyline I care about. Very upsetting.

No Words!

I don't even know what to say. Can't write an in-depth review, because I still haven't processed it all. Will be able to more when I watch it back. To say that the experience was overwhelming would be the understatement of the year. I know I've said it several times in different ways before, but there is absolutely nothing that compares to experiencing your favorite thing in the world with your best friend. Best night EVER!!!
