Kind of amazing this pic hasn't shown up on Valleywag, given their obsession with Scoble.

I love Wii bowling.

My arm and shoulder are sore.

There must be good exercise games for the Wii.

Got any recommendations?

Davos Envy Permanent link to this item in the archive.

I noted that Mike Arrington is going to Davos this year. I know another blogger who got an invite (not sure if he wants me to say). Now I wish I was a little less fame-averse. I had a great time in Davos in 2000. I'd love to go again. Oh well.

The official answer: I wouldn't go if they invited me. If you believe that, I have a nice bridge to sell you. Cheap! ;->

Fandom on Facebook Permanent link to this item in the archive.

I became a fan of the NY Times on Facebook.

This is very interesting!

I should have a fan page for Scripting News.

Wonder how to do?

I took their news quiz, got all the answers right. They said I guessed, but I didn't, I knew all the answers.

Truth be told you don't have to read the Times to know these things. I got the answers from watching Countdown a couple of nights this week. ;->
