At Long Last...Friday Musings
Playstation 3 Mania
Lauren went to Target yesterday and told me about a group of disheveled guys sitting on lawn chairs outside the store. She thought they were protestors or something. Turns out they were just waiting in line for their Playstation 3, which went on sale at midnight last night. I guess it was a national phenomenon. One guy who spent three nights on the sidewalk in New York said: "It was totally worth it. I'm going to go home, shower, and then play." Weird. But I'm glad he's going to take a shower first.
Farewell to Dan
Tomorrow Dan McCarney will take the field for the last time as the Iowa State football coach. In his twelve years here, there have been some great moments and some forgettable ones. I think most Cyclone fans are grateful for what he did for the program and wish him the best. It's been a rough year, so a win over Missouri would be a fitting end to an era.
Blogger 2.0
I've migrated my blog to the new version of Blogger. It has some spiffy new features, like the ability to add labels to help categorize posts and trackbacks in case someone links to an entry. Another good job by the folks at Google.

PS3 looks awesome, saw a demo at BestBuy. Seems to whip XBox 360. Have you played PS3 yet?
Honestly, I'm not a video-game guy--I haven't seen the PS3. But I got a kick out of the hysteria.
Merlin sends his congratulations on the win :)
Hey, visit my blog when you get a chance. I've posted a lot recently, and I'd love some feedback. . . .
