Ohmigodohmigodohmigod new pledge rewards for Reading Rainbow. Special events where you bring your little one to a private children's book reading session, hosted individually by William Shatner, Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner, Jonathan Frakes, Michael Dorn, Robert Picardo, Kate Mulgrew, Marina Sirtis, Gates McFadden, Jeri Ryan, and did I mention Patrick Stewart! First round of tickets go up today 2pm PST, more later. Pretty much you have to bring your son or daughter, since of course the whole project is to get kids into reading, so if you don't have any, hurry up and go make one. Trek for the win.

Alpha Beta?! Oh my god back when orange trees were in Orange County. I could stare at the grass roof on the Hearthsong building all day--at least until the wind topples the bull's head. Or not, because the foundations of which reach down beneath the ground, undoubtedly.

Perfect. The comic shop doesn't open till ten anyway, so I need time to get there and back before the update.

Game Informer press people who saw the demo thought it reminded them of Skyrim. Must be valid.

Padres number one in the league in shutouts! I mean getting shutout! Yeah!

Ask a search engine this question and it'll break the algorithms. Does not compute. No such criteria. No results found.

Had no idea there was a world-building element in Marvel Infinity. I wonder could I create my own battle between Elektra and Black Widow ...

Well not technically playing yet, as it is still downloading from the sky of game horizon pretty lights. This is the surprise announcement release from five hours ago. Looking forward to it, since I can't seem to relax today. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nv5SEynpCWQ

Just announced after the presser. Announced during the show, Glacier White.

E3 isn't over yet. Crash Bandicoot, c'mon.

It's not torture porn. Stop calling it that.

Same, my interest has cooled right off a cliff. Urgh, what is this strange tone they're going with ... Whatever, I hate that they know I'll buy it and play it, and play it again, no matter what they do. That's an evil power to hold over people. Wait, what if I didn't buy it ... what if I ... I ...

That pizza looks ten times better than this Miss USA same-airbrushed-face-as-the-last-one parade I'm not watching.

What the ... why is this ... who are these quotes coming ... no, no more blindingly glib marketing polish. Stop. Jessica Merizan, is this you, please don't be.

Oh, eh, never even seen that key, down there all longitudinal-like, let alone used it. Let me try it. Oh wow, it worked perfectly first time. And again. I like that it's the bottom-most, right-handed key. How 'bout that, numpad--while slow and dangerous behind the wheel, can still serve a purpose.

Find and listen to a good podcast in a specific genre you enjoy, say with two or three hosts who speak well, and have interesting things to say about stuff you love. Make a drink, add music in a new tab, fluff the couch cushions--all while interjecting your own comments (even if they can't hear you, because it's a recording, from people thousands of miles away, who are probably sleeping while you're drinking and fluffing)--and it can feel just like being at party where everyone is witty and comfortable and having fun. Boom--no regrets, no hidden puke, no proximity pathogens from strangers, no carpet stains, no damaged glassware, no trips to DUI jail. Although--podcasts don't bring girls with them. Girls are nice. Maybe you should go to the party.

I'm going in spirit. In my own way, not in the true event spirit of sweaty dudes with lanyards dangling over muffin-tops. Will watch Sony's conference Monday night, then just hang back and take a dip in the announcement ocean.

I've hit False Neutral between gears on my bike, before. It's a really weird, quick silence, like holding your face too close above whirring sawblades.

Lock incoming.

It's not worth the haunting regret every day thereafter. Comfort zones are comfortable for a reason. Stay inside them.

What, no, yes he is, but Porsche returning to Le Mans has nothing to do with Michael. No new information about Schumacher since April:

Germans can even accomplish precise comedic tolerances. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3u_14CXSDg

Yeah well I just priced XB1 controllers ... $60 gets you a single unit, no cable, regular batteries, what. 75 frickin' dollars gets you the Play and Charge version with rechargeable batteries and a USB cable--the only option for PC. That is kinda irritating. Presumably a generic microUSB would work with the former, but the price still comes out sixes ... unless the cable that came with my Dualshock 4 is compatible ... but then I'd need to keep replacing batteries. The only deal I see is Amazon, $60.61 for the P&C model.

That is exciting. I love fixing a 'dead' component just by actually plugging it in. Which game will be first ...
