Contest Time
Hi again, everyone! I've finally come up with an idea for a new post, so feast your eyes, and sharpen up your sixth senses!
I was thinking back to before Karissa was born, and recalled that Greg and Beth did a great job of predicting what our baby would be. (see "Poll Time", February '06) So, I have decided to have some fun with it this time.
So....
I will offer as a prize the fantastic sum of $10 to anyone who can accurately predict the gender and first initial of this baby, as Greg and Beth did. (betcha you two can't do it again) In order to qualify, your guess must be posted as a comment on this post before the baby is born. You can guess as many times as you want, but only your last guess will count. So, guess away!
In other news, I have finished Metroid Prime 3 and am playing Super Paper Mario, a hybrid 2D/3D platformer/RPG for the Wii. It's very interesting and quite well made. I'm enjoying it quite a bit, but I'm rushing a little to finish it to make sure that I'm done in time for Christmas. (I am quite fortunate that my wonderful wife will be getting me Super Mario Galaxy this year. Isn't that cool!)
In more other news, I have been reading through a set of Star Wars "Essential Gudes". There are six of them total, and I have been watching Ebay and buying one at a time when I can find them dirt cheap. They are all about different things in the Star Warrs Universe. There are guides for Alien Speies, Characters, Droids, Planets and Moons, Vehicles and Vessels, and Weapons and Technology. They are quite interesting if you like Star Wars. Each one has a brief article written about each of about 100 examples of the given subject, generally some of the most well-known examples. For example, the characters include Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, Emporor Palpatine, Admiral Ackbar, and Jabba the Hutt, among others. So, if the Star Wars universe interests you, give them a read.
Anyway, until next time....
