That story is adorable, Tom. Thanks for the link.

That is a good article. I just wish I could've written it.
Instead, my kid took to violent video games like a Sith to cookies.
So much so we took all his games (and toy guns) away for a year.
Did it help?
Kinda. He no longer points guns at us or others, and is better able to differentiate between what's OK in gamespace and what's OK in meatspace.
Of course, there was a lot of teaching and talking during that time, and still is.
Puzzle Quest 2 comes out next week! I'm so excited! I was soooo addicted to the first one.
That's a great game. They actually made Bejeweled fun.
Ok, I've finished my exams and I'm hoping to get a new BSG game underway before the next semester starts. How's everyone situated for starting this week?
Frak, yes. Anything to take my mind off of France's dismal World Cup.
I'm 99% sure I'll be able to keep playing after the move on the 30th.
I'm ready to go whenever.
