Joe Biden Looked So Young

Joe BidenRemember when Joe Biden was just an angry young man of the Senate?

Well, he was angry. Peeved, anyway.

The pic is lil’ Joey during the Clarence Thomas hearings.

Here’s the video. Remember “high tech lynching“? Good times, good times.

Ah me. They grow up so fast, don’t they?

Lego Battles for Nintendo DS

Lego Battles for Nintendo DSThe various Lego video games have a very mixed track record.

Lego Star Wars is excellent, and was a success on multiple platforms. We own it for PS2 and DS, and my son has played it on the Wii as well. (He asked for a Wii copy but I said no. Two versions of the same game is enough. Really.)

Lego Batman is so-so. Not great, not terrible.

Lego Indiana Jones seems to have been a big ol’ flopperoo. Haven’t played it but on my own personal “kids my kid knows meter” it rates a zero. I may be completely wrong about this, because they have announced a Lego Indiana Jones 2. Still, I don’t know of a single person who plays this game. Not that I know everyone. But I know a lot of people. (Aside: the Indiana Jones Wii game where you get to use the Wii Remote as a whip has potential. Although this Gamespot review says otherwise.)

So Lego Battles for Nintendo DS could be a hit. Or it could be a steaming pile of monkey poop. As the great Kent Brockman would say, only time will tell. Well, time, and my son deciding that he must have this game.

Here’s the trailer for Lego Battles: Read more »

More of a Man Than You’ll Ever Be

Watch this guy jump out of a helicopter and catch a marlin. The fish, not a member of the baseball team.

Farrah Fawcett Dead at 62

Farrah Fawcett PosterFarrah Fawcett has lost her battle with cancer.

Sad. 62 just isn’t that old.

For people who don’t recall, she was at one time the most beautiful woman in the world. You know how everyone gets all worked up about Megan Fox? Imagine that times a billion. That poster was on more bedroom walls than paint.
