I’ve been a computer gamer since 1980 and I don’t think I’ve actually played any game more than I have played Great Planes RealFlight R/C Simulator. Okay, so it’s not technically a game, but I still seem to load it up almost every night and fly for a while. The latest version of the [...]

The Brothers Brick did a fairly nice write up of a few of the new girl-oriented LEGO sets called LEGO Friends. Some have protested that LEGOs are inherently gender neutral by design, and therefore don’t need a pink and purple themed girl-line. While I fundamentally agree, I and many other AFOL welcomed the new [...]

Sprint Epic 4G Touch
So I finally entered the world of the smart phone. When I first started researching phones a couple of weeks ago I considered waiting for the iPhone 5. Good thing I decided not to wait. It doesn’t exist.
I came across the Android Samsung Galaxy S2 in my research [...]

I just bought the Hobie Trax 2 kayak cart and I wonder if I should have done a little more research before hand. I already own the standard Hobie kayak cart, but last summer I discovered that it is useless on soft sand! I guess I should have realized this considering Hobie sells two completely [...]

Zoom H1 Digital Recorder
I’ve since ordered the Zoom H1 digital recorder and find the recordings to be amazing. Now I understand other people’s concern with “handling noise” when holding the H1. I solve this problem by attaching a micro tripod to the H1 and handling only the tripod if I have to [...]

Zoom H1 Digital Recorder
The other day I randomly decided to try creating a song in GarageBand on my Mac. Not having read the instructions or anything I just jumped right in. Before too long I had laid down some percussion tracks that sounded pretty good. I knew the song I was going [...]

It’s a fine new science museum in Hartford, CT. We visited yesterday and had a pretty good time. It’s unique in that it’s a very “urban” museum. By this I mean it’s vertical. It’s like a skyscraper with a central bank of glass elevators. Each floor houses 1 or two fairly large exhibit rooms [...]

So I’ve constructed two different 60-card decks, two 40-card decks, and have played the game about 25 times. I think I’m ready to tell you what I think about the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game.
A bit of background
As with many others who are playing or might be interested in the WoWTCG, [...]

Gulo Gulo is a fun and extremely well balanced game for families with children. The mechanics of the game itself, not luck, is what makes Gulo Gulo balanced when playing a game with kids and adults. The fact that luck is only a tiny part of this game goes a long way in my [...]

Max is a simple, cooperative boardgame where the players take on the role of three little animals (mouse, chipmunk, bird) attempting to get to their homes in a tree as Max (the cat) tries to catch them. No reading is required.
After introducing myself to BGG, I ended up making a purchase from Funagain.com [...]
