The majority of the local nerd posse got together last night in the “Klau Man Pit” last night for some Wii action. It’s not that I didn’t already love this video game console (sorry, all), but last night pushed it to the next level. Wii Boxing amongst friends may be the greatest thing ever… And [...]

Stop replaying the Wii Commercials online (or from the Tivo) nonstop and download a copy of Kodo (Inside the Sun Remix) by the Yoshida Brothers from iTunes… Don’t know the song? Where have you been the last couple of weeks? :)
