*Words of Wisdom From The Elder

A few weeks ago Ellen and I had to go to Jackson for the weekend to a piano contest she was judging. Since we had to leave for two nights we needed someone to watch our dogs while we were away. Two of Ellen’s students, Carlena and Shea, agreed to watch the dogs for us but we had to have game night at our house to reward their services. Tonight was game night. Everyone gets together and we have a meal then we break out all of the board games. We started by cooking some burgers and hot dogs on the grill and then played a few hands of Texas Hold ‘Em since they girls had never played. Then another student of Ellen’s named Nathan showed up and we started playing Mad Gab and then moved onto Taboo. The night is still young, who knows what we’ll break out next. Maybe Operation?

I am standing here in the mall waiting on my oil to be changed when I hear familar music from my childhood. I walk over to the vendor and it is super mario playing on a TV. Not only was mario on there but duck hunt and other games totaling 80 games in all. The crazy thing is that all 80 games were in one remote control. This just begs the question, in another few years when are the current PS2 and XBOX games going to fit into one controller?

I feel sorry for people that sell and buy on Ebay that do not have a working knowledge of the Internet in order to spot a scam. Luckily for this one person, they pulled one of the best documented pranks ever on a scammer on Ebay. It is completely documented with details of what happened. I started reading it, and fell in the floor.

tuglasolonka sent us a link to a really crazy auction on ebay. The auction has ended but hopefully they will keep this up for awhile, it is worth looking at. If I had $13,000.00 laying around I would have it. Here are some of the specs taken from the auction before you head over to ebay:

Smokey the Bear sent me this little ditty today. Do the following:

Using Google.Com, search on “go to hell” (double quotes and all) and then select the feel lucky button. Seems enough folks have “go to hell” links to MS that it ends up #1.
