What's that I smell? (Dec 19 2006 23:54 GMT) - Smells like lawyers: Apparently the nefarious straps were engineering the whole thing, since GW LLP claims "Owners of the Nintendo Wii reported that when they used the Nintendo remote and wrist strap, as instructed by the material that accompanied the Wii console, the wrist strap broke and caused the remote to leave the user's hand." Given the fact that the basic premise of these claims is a tad bit off (we're fairly certain those straps have been breaking after the Wiimote leaves the hand) and that Green Welling's main demand from Nintendo is that they replace the straps ( done and done ), we can't see this lawsuit getting too terribly far, but we suppose we'll have to wait and find out. |

Stone the crows (Dec 19 2006 23:54 GMT) - Somewhere around four-and-twenty-thousand black birds were congregating near NW 50th and May right around sunset, some on overhead wires, some clustered on the ground, and many more swooping down out of the drizzle into, if not your face, certainly your path. It wasn't exactly a scene out of Hitchcock, but it certainly looked menacing enough, and during the four minutes I was stopped at Popeye's, half a dozen of them drew a bead on Gwendolyn, who was apparently far too unblack for their liking. Shoppers weren't avoiding Walgreens or Target, but they were keeping their heads down, just in case. Call it evolution in action: these birds are not only unaffected by human encroachment, they're utterly indifferent to it. |
