Sure I don’t have a Wii myself, but my friends do! And in due time I too will get one, after my year limit is reached and I feel like there is enough software to make the purchase worth it (Okay so I really just don’t have the money). Well there is still one thing that I can do, look at what is to come and dream of things that I want on the Wii. Game Informer has a wishlist of VC games that they want, and if anything it brings back some good memories of great games from days gone by. A few notable ones from the list: Chrono Trigger, Lost Vikings, Secret of Evermore, Pilot Wings 64, RC Pro Am, STAR FOX, Super Mario All-Stars, Tecmo Super Bowl, Uniracers and Zombies Ate My Neighbors. This was just a quick screening of games on the list. Read it and then hit back here for some discussions.

Latest entry by Mark Cuban on his blog, about why we don’t need suits and why he refuses to wear a suit. I guess if you have as much money and power and awesomeness as he does, you get to make the rules.
Why am I such a suit hater ? I’m not a suit hater, I just could never think of any good reason for any sane person to wear a suit in the first place.
Exactly what purpose does a suit serve ? Why in the world are so many people required to wear a suit to work ? Do the clothes make the man or woman in the western world today ? Does wearing a tie make us work harder or smarter ? Is this a conspiracy by the clothing, fabric or dry cleaning industry to take our money ?
Or are we all just lemmings following a standard we all know makes zero sense, but we follow because we are afraid not to ?

“It would be kind of fun for every Digger with a website or BLOG to link the word ‘terrorism‘ to http://www.riaa.com every-other-day for about a month… ”
Sounds like a good idea to me.

Well it’s a new year, to ring it in Bored Mind has gotten a face lift as you can see. In fact it’s not just a face lift, it’s a whole redo. I have switched back to using Wordpress which I really like now and love to see how it has matured. Look for lots of new things to come including hopefully finally a podcast! The old forums are still up, either click here or click on the place where it says “forums” on the right side of the page. As always if you have any suggestions as to how to make the site better let me know! I have added a few new things already including a tag cloud, rating system for each post, new ajax style commenting system, a link to Digg every post, favicons for comments if the comments site has one. Those are just a few of the things, in the future I plan to add more including a “digg life” rating system for the comments in every post. Don’t forget to update your RSS feeds if you had one to the new feed, you can click on the top RSS icon at the top or on the right side or click here.
I really like the new site and I hope you guys do too, so let me know! Have a great new year!!

What did everyone do? Before the New Year began I watched Hentai for the first time with some of my friends (there’s nothing like some good ol’ demon rape) and then, just after the ball dropped I rocked out to Living on a Prayer by none other than Jon Bon Jovi to a crowd of 6 or 7 retards/drunk kids/drunk retarded kids (there was a healthy mix of all these categories). The best part was the mother hosting this ‘party’ got into it and started dancing next to us and trying to get everyone else up too. For about 5 minutes at the beginning of this new year, I was a rock star.
