Morning Discussion
by Chris Faylor, Oct 01, 2008 9:51pm PDTA warm greeting to you, my fellow Shackers, on this somewhat chilly Indiana day.
As things gear up for the Tokyo Game Show, we're starting to see a number of high-profile revelations, such as the new Nintendo DSi and Punch-Out!! Wii.
Personally though, I'm quite excited about Namco's decision to revive Klonoa. The original was easily one of my favorite PlayStation games, and I had assumed the franchise dead after six years without a major title. Talk about a surprise!
And hey, Amazon.com, any time you or your merchants want to deliver that Middleman trade, Collected Series Indispensability, that'd be cool. It's not like I've already been charged and told it'd be here last week while the merchant ignores my e-mails.

That is to say, I found my bicycle. Or someone found it for me. What fortune! What luck! What have they done to make it so scratched and worn and the lever-bar so loose?! It works and it is mine again, now.
Yay!

"hi cutie,
can you ask your friends on the shack if the have any good recommendations for exercise videos? I would want something with a few choices, that will hold my interest, that I can do in our tiny living room, and a 30min to 1 hour workout. Maybe a cardio one and a weight lifting one?
thanks"
But seriously, can anyone help her out. Pics to come after said videos work.
