As for those terrible stomach pains I had last night, we’ll blame the miniscule amount of turkey I downed rather than the half-ton of that sticky-sweet mess.

Only one week to go before The DORK Club turns the big 5, and The DORK Club 5 Year Anniversary Feature: The Top 25 Video Games of ALL TIME, goes live. I guess I should start working on that. Being the master of forethought that I am, I forgot to bring any of my “tools,” like Photoshop or Dreamweaver, home with me.
