Last week, another Web site put up an article about my favorite video game music composer, Go Shiina. But what caught my eye was a comment posted under the article from one of my good online friends. He said in his comment that the other site should’ve paid me to write about Go Shiina because I would’ve done a really good job, too. So I decided to write about Go Shiina anyway. Not because I wanted to make a better blog, but because someone ENCOURAGED me to do so.

Big news, folks! I own my very own day care center now. I’m taking care of eight kids! But they’re all from the same family! Their dad is a real tyrant, though, but he said that if I watched his children, he’d help me kidnap Princess Zelda. See, Link would always suspect Ganon, but never me! Muwa ha ha haaa! OK, so this is just a silly way to introduce my favorite part of New Super Mario Bros. Wii: the return of the Koopa Kids! And this whole blog is dedicated to them. It’s a little silly, but a little silliness is OK every once in a while!
With Thanksgiving upon us and the holidays right around the corner, there’s going to be a lot of eating, serving food, waiting on people, and cleaning up after them. So why not get some practice in with the Xbox Live version of Diner Dash, based on the popular online PC game.
Thanksgiving is a time to be grateful for the year’s bountiful harvest, and what better way to celebrate than with a Harvest Moon game?
