Kid-geek book (or marketing invades picture books)

Even being a semi-geek mom, this book's focus -- which btw is clearly marketing for Windows Home Server-- really disturbs me. But even so, I have to admit, the tongue-n-cheek prose does amuse me.



You can view the entire book online here.

PS: It's also on Amazon - scary!

Wii have a problem

Can't you just see a whole new category of AFV clips from this one?

"Wii have a problem" is a blog focused on bringing you the latest trend in gaming violence. That of damage caused by "window lickers" who should not be participating in activity of any form... yet own a Wii. Why? Because we're fanboys that's why.”

---> Just taking a break from this regularly scehduled blog to provide you with this small, sorta-amusing update. Bear with me on this one please ...I think I've been peddling thin mints for last three days :) <----

If I’ve seemed absent here for the last few days… it’s been for good reason. It’s Girl Scout cookie delivery time.

Being a "brownie mom" and asst. troop leader makes it hard to avoid the cookie sale pitch. But I’ll be honest, I wasn’t born with that Electrolux salesman gene, so selling cookies door-to-door rates right up there with pulling a hang nail. Just get it over with and move on - at least that's what I've been focusing on. And it doesn’t help that Katie, my seven year-old, didn't inherit the sales gene either... which, of course, makes it near impossible for her to earn that coveted cookie badge. :)

So to those of you in the office who've helped me save face in the cookie-mom club by shelling out hard cash for your samoas fix, I’m eternally grateful. And for those you still wondering where you can find a scout to support your cookie addiction, I still have a few boxes left ... but as I also found out today, you can also get your fix by locating a GS cookie outlet on Myspace ...
