Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando. I've basically been running thorugh the game turning everyone into sheep. Seemed appropriate.

When I was still living in Portland (the original one in Maine, not the reboot in Oregon), some idiot in the neighborhood's car alarm would go off every single night at 3 AM. I repeat: every single night. This went on for far longer than it should, culminating in a large group of neighbors from all over the neighborhood standing around the car in their jammies or sweats and calling the police with the car blaring in the background. I know, because I was one of them. The cops showed up and told us all to go home, they'd take it from there. Last night it happened, strangely enough.

Oh, and toepick! I own that movie, too. When my friend Gi and I ran the last snowshoe race together, I caught the front of my snowshoe and almost face planted. While I was doing so, I yelled "Toe pick!" and Gi looked at me and said "Did you just say toe pick? Oh my god, I do that, too!"

We're awesome. You'd fit in nicely.

I remember spending the day at South Mountain Park and falling in love with it. I'd love to spend more time in the Southwest.

I never have, either. Mostly because my first Nintendo system was a Game Cube. I beat one and only one Sonic game on the Genesis, and that was Sonic 3, because it had saves after every level so I didn't have to play the whole game all over again to get back to that point.

It's OK Snee, we won't hold it against you.

LOL! I've been calling it Lego GTA, as well. Again, regretting giving both versions to my nephew, who has probably since sold them or traded them, as he is a starving college student paying his own bills. But I can't complain, he did give me Rise of the Tomb Raider and Arkham Knight.

Most of the swag actually comes when you register for your bib. The Bad Ass hat comes after you finish the third race in the series. And the races are fun, mostly because the group that organizes them keeps them that way so that everyone feels welcome regardless of ability.

No, Andrew, I really haven't. I've been a couch slug most of the winter. All anyone has to do is look at my dog. I've let him get fat. Me, too, but somehow it's worse when it's the dog.

That trip sounds amazing! Take lots of photos.

Global warming sucks. That's all I'm going to say on the matter.

And it's good to be back home here on Pixlbit.
