If you are at all interested in reading some of my hackneyed video game "journalism," you may do so with my latest contribution to the questionably illustrious Lusipurr.com. Come comment or complain! Or, be you so inclined, we do a podcast every weekend. When I say 'we,' I mean they since I am rarely on it due to a lack of time.

The surgeon seemed impressed with my Wolverine-like healing abilities. As it turns out, I get to keep my fingertips AND I will not be needing rods inserted, even though I was looking forward to asking for something cooler like laser pointers or little vibrating motors.
