I made this picture myself from an idea I had awhile ago…

Well this is only about one accessory but here it goes. My little brother (who is addicted to the DS) decided that he would order a case for it online at Target (he had recently gotten a gift card).
When he opened it he was exited until he noticed that something wasn’t quite right.
Yes that’s right, the cut-outs are flipped. Perhaps for a left handed game boy? Well my little brother was pissed that Target would send him a defective product so he went online and saw their nifty “return/refund your purchase”. So he goes through the whole process and decides that he wants a non-defective case. So he is about to package it and send it to Target when he gets an e-mail saying “Do not bother sending back the product, we have already sent you a new one”. Some factory worker got fired for this I’m sure…
Here’s some more pictures:
A relatively new software company called Humanized has developed this great time saving software that does not get in the way of your way.
“Having to change programs to perform simple tasks—for example, making a quick calculation, or looking up a definition—breaks your concentration, takes you away from the task at hand, and wastes your valuable time. Enso lets you do common computing tasks easier and faster than ever before. You get a huge productivity boost and a simpler digital life. And now that Enso is free, it won’t cost you a penny.” - Humanized.com
go here for a past review of enso.
Now that enso is free there is no excuse not to get it.

I have found that online flash games are extremely popular. This is probably because you (usually) don’t have to wait a long time to download it and they are free. Unfortunately because they are free they usually aren’t good/playable and they aren’t updated often/ever. But there are some that stand out. I am here to tell you in no particular order what those games are.
1. Dwarfs Complete
http://lineage2.plaync.jp/l2fun/flashGame.aspx
This addicting puzzle game is very nice for several reasons. It automatically saves your progress (using cookies i guess). It’s not too hard but there is a level of mind power that is required to solve the various puzzles. The site is in Japanese but just ignore it and play the game. The game itself is about a dwarf who I think is trying to get off of either an abandoned planet or the moon. To complete the game you need to find 40 pieces of equipment create a floating rock and activate the spaceship to get off the moon/planet. You control your character with the arrow keys and you can use various tools you make from materials by clicking on them. I really liked this game and I recommend it to people who like puzzle games.
This has to be the hardest version of Mario ever. I would kill the person who made it.
I was surfing the interweb when I found this cool little site. You make your own mini city and you gain population from people visiting your city. for example if you go to my city http://zagaroth.myminicity.com I will get another population. My favorite thing about this site is the graphics. Just look at my city as of December 29, 2007.
It is a very nice looking game especially when you get even bigger. So come on and help me out. 
In addition to increasing population you can
- Increase industry
- Improve the transport network
- Increase security
- Improve environment
- and Increase business
Send people to the links for those things once you have enough population to do so. Right now I don’t have enough population but when I do I will post those links.
Please help me out and go to my mini city.
If you want you can post a link to your mini city in the comments and we can help everybody’s city grow.
UPDATE:
Thank you everybody who visited my site I can now increase industry :).
Go to http://zagaroth.myminicity.com/ind and remember you can post your mini city here too.
UPDATE AGAIN:
Now I can increase transportation!

Well with the holidays come holiday themed commercials and I just want to share something I noticed.
The Alltel and the Mac vs. PC commercials are fundamentally the same thing. A “suave” young hip guy and a geek or four. Here is an example of both of their TV commercials.
Alltel
Mac vs. PC
These are their regular commercials and here are their holiday commercials:
Alltel
Mac vs. PC
Notice anything? I sure did. Both went from actual people to claymation. I have a couple of ideas why.
- Both companies realized that people like claymation at the same time.
- It’s less expensive to have a clay Santa then it is to hire one and buy a set.
- They both use the same company to produce their ads.
- They are the same company.
- All their base are belong to geeks.
- An advanced race of clay dreidels are trying to take over media and give Santa a bad name therefore making Hanukkah superior to Christmas.
- Coincidence.
And now for something completely different:
