Braid
Nov 10th
Thanks to my better half, I’m hooked on a new video game: Braid, a platform game download for the Xbox.
Braid is a game of puzzles that uses time manipulation as both a tool and a philosophical theme. I love how the artwork, a wash of swirling watercolor skies, underscores the sad and mysterious narrative.
Curious lion-like creatures that inhabit the game’s landscape are also a nice touch.
Sadly, I’m not too far from the end of this brief game right now. It’s like a good book that I wish wouldn’t be ending so soon.
John blogged about it on Geek Out New York last week, so I’ll direct anyone interested in reading more to his post.

Baby Donkey Celebrates
Nov 4th
There’s a bit of boasting going on around here, after a night of election results and too much soda pop…
Our little Democrat is trying to offer some consolation his red friend, though, with a suggestion that he join the blue team. (Not likely, I think.)
Here’s to our shiny new president!
Vote!
Nov 4th
As babies, the Pundit Babies are not eligible to vote this year. But they want to remind you to do it if you can. (As if you could forget!)
Then, go get free coffee at Starbucks.
Squirrel Eating Apple
Nov 3rd
I saw this squirrel munching away on an apple core in a parking lot last week.
He looks pretty happy.
