Blizzard sued BNETD

Here we go again.

Dance Dance Revolution

Michelle introduced me to a great PlayStation game called Dance Dance Revolution. It uses a floor pad-style controller (somewhat reminiscent of the old Nintendo mat controller which had -- I think -- sixteen numbered buttons). The PlayStation floor pad controller has all of the same buttons as a standard PlayStation controller, but you stand on it and press them with your feet.

In the game, the PlayStation will play dance music and flash arrows corresponding to dance steps. You have to step on the appropriate controller button at exactly the right moment. I played for a long time and got lots of exercise.

Collage

I think I'm forming a plan to make a new collage -- for Sarah. My old collage took months to complete, so if I do a new collage, it could take a similar amount of time.

DST

We went onto Pacific Daylight Time out here, and I haven't quite adjusted yet.
