There was a thing on the New York Times Book Review podcast the other week about how YA has helped raise paper book sales this year. Apparently teens still want a paper book even though a lot of them have tablets or e-readers. They also mentioned as a joke, but maybe not so wrong, that adults were buying YA books on their e-readers, basically to hide it from other adults. So, hurrah for YA! It's keeping the last chain book store in my neighborhood in business.

I must've heard refernces to the half-tuck a dozen times on podcasts talking about the Uncharted series. It's just a funny thing: Nathan Drake trying to be all stylish while he guns down hoards of badies and thieves gold from ancient treasure hoards.

I'm still juggling the current gen consoles wondering which one I'll get first.

Yea, you're right. He like aged up a bit, bot bald, and grew a beard.

You're on last.fm? So am I. . . Oh yeah, you're on my friend's list there. I don't log in there very often, but I use the scrobbler all the time and have them send my top three listens to Twitter every week.

I got de Blob for that price at my library. I think that's probably a good one though.

There's a way to do simple games for kids that are not crap. I mean Ubisoft Montreal did a few decent ones in Open Season and Surf's Up. All you really have to do is make sure the controls are fine and make everything you do in the game easy. Oh, and I can't wait to hear about Barbie and the Three Musketeers. Sounds like a winner. NOT!

On console, I'd be wanting it badly. I want a nice big screen for those maps.

That's a lot of phones. I've only had two and they are both less techy than the oldest one you showed. I'm not big into phones, but I have an iPod Touch. Love that thing.

I'm a firm believer that the buckle makes the man.
