Evening Reading

Well then, for the holiday weekend I found myself in Boston actually watching a Red Sox game. I attended a wedding as well, but obviously as an actual male with a hanging pair I must say the baseball was the only event I cried at over the weekend.

As for the the videogame news around these parts for the weekend:

Lastly, as someone who has never cared much at all about politics I must readily admit I find myself actually very interested in the election this year. I must also admit it pains me how incredibly difficult it is to come by untainted political information on TV or the web. It's almost as sad as the fact that America only has 2 dominant political parties and if your views or hopes don't line up just right, you're hosed. I certainly understand how we ended up with a media this way and a political system this way, but it still makes me a sad panda. A sad endangered panda that will be used as a political pawn and media sensation to launch and destroy careers!
