The only thing I dislike about Flock's Blogging Software is it puts Nonbreaking Spaces all over the place that I don't want, and I have to go back and edit them out.

I highly recommend Sam and Max Episode 1: Culture Shock. I recommend it more if you're buying a season pass, like I did, but I recommend it all the same. It took up all my free time yesterday, basically, and the humor flowed. Jonathan sat down next to my computer so he could hear and watch. Contrary to what everyone is saying, the voices are good, they grow on you, they're simply different. Anyway, if you're an adventure game fan and a Sam and Max fan, I suggest it. I enjoyed the episode, and look forward to the rest of the season. Just... I dunno. It's honestly less adventure game and really more interactive TV episode. Which honestly works fine. Just don't expect any of the puzzles to be particularly hard. The fun of the game is in going through every single dialogue option. There is a joke in literally every item description. The last puzzle did stump me for awhile, though.

I should really get that big collection of all the Sam and Max comics... that would be a worthy purchase..

Anyway, let's see what else is up... I'm doing some Time Spiral release events online after I get back from class. I hope I'm not bothered while I do it, but chances are I will be. If I win all five games this time I believe I get a Stuffy Doll avatar. Don't quote me on that though. Also, I don't plan on winning all five. But it'll be fun nonetheless. I also found that I have 4 Coldsnap packs unopened online, which means I also need to get in a CS-CS-CS draft in sometime. Then I'll be left with one lonely Dissention pack and one lonely Coldsnap pack... we'll see if I can't trade those for Time Spiral packs for later drafting or something, depending on the number of packs, if any, I win from the release league. Anyway, here's to hoping I open a playset of Stuffy Doll! It'll make me almost surely lose the release league, but then I'll have a playset of Stuffy Doll. ^_^

Well, I'm gonna get dressed and head towards class, as I have a shit-ton of podcasts I could be catching up on. My new favorite podcast is Retronauts, by the way, which is lead by Toastyfrog, whose blog I frequent. If you wanna hear game journalists rant about games they played long ago, then this podcast is for you.
