Now showing on the main screen in the Pikaplex: my wife scuba dives on the Wii, and makes friends with all the fish. No, really. She pets them, and they start following her around. There are also sharks around, but this being a family-friendly game, it seems like the extent of the danger is that they don’t want you to pet them.
If you have a Wii (and a wife?) you might consider giving this a try.
Meanwhile, I’m reading the manual for Monster Hunter Freedom 2 on the PSP, and wondering where a handheld game gets off being so complicated.
A friend shared this in Google Reader today: PC World - Business Center: IT Admin Locks up San Francisco’s Network. She commented: “I’m a bit surprised that this isn’t more common. Who wouldn’t want to arrest the BOFH?”
Wow… I hope I’m not in the minority here, but I’m surprised it happened at all. IT workers are professionals, and from where I’m standing, professionals take our jobs seriously.[]
Sure, I laugh at the stereotypes, too, but the BOFH is just a fantasy villain! If you can’t trust a professional, something is wrong. Your IT guy may know a lot of things that not everyone knows, and may have access to a lot of things that not everyone does - but so do your auto mechanic, your architect, your building’s electrician, and your doctor.[]
(And no, friend, I don’t take offense at your comment. I just wanted to give a counterpoint.)
I upgraded this blog to a new version of the WordPress software in order to get some juicy new features, and it in turn bit me with a crippling bug in the permalink system.[] Until this is worked out, I’m using post IDs instead of dates and titles to generate permalinks.
If you read this blog via a feed, you probably won’t even notice. If you got here via a permalink that went 404, please use the search box on the right - that at least seems to work!
The Giant Bomb crew is at E3, and they have some good news about upcoming Xbox LIVE features. Some of these are really good news to me. My comments under the cut.

Last night, I was so tired when I got home from my IT job that I took a nap. That nap expanded until I just stayed in bed for the night.
What did I dream about?
Troubleshooting Windows NT networking issues. Every time I woke up and went back to sleep, it was back to network troubleshooting.
When I woke up at 4:30 AM, I just stayed up, because all that troubleshooting left me exhausted.
