Why Wil Wheaton is still Cool:

From his blog today:

"I woke up this morning with searing pain in my left arm and shoulder. It was joined by some pain in my right hip, and even though I'm pretty damn achey today, it's worth it. I'm not going to be an old man and wish that I'd played less frisbee with my son."

(And yes, go out and vote if you're in the US and haven't yet.)

Professor Layton, Again

I'm a little (read, a lot) stressed by work, so let's think of something else for a moment... like Professor Layton and the Curious Village. A while back my wife accidentally saved on top of my save game, which was annoying because although I had finished the storyline (and every puzzle), I hadn't finished the additional puzzles and downloadable puzzles.

And how cool is that? They had extra puzzles you could download. That's so neat.

Anyway, on my way into work today on the bus I ran through the endgame, saving right before the end so I could go back and find my missing puzzles, which I did during lunch, using a really helpful walkthrough site which lists every puzzle in an index. So, yay, perfect game again!

Now I've got the rest of the after-game puzzles to do, and then I get to wait for the sequel.
