I like it, but I don't really find myself attached to any of the characters, other than the wolves. I have not read the books, because the first one started out so slowly, that I just wasn't interested in continuing. I don't know if that makes a difference to caring about the characters or not. Thoughts?

Aww he's cute. I wish I'd gotten a pic of the garter snake that lives under the door mat.

I think having spent so much time on the right makes it harder for me to argue against the left.

Who is the last one?

Weirdo

I wish I could make it, but we'd need a sitter.

How about a nice charcoal case with ntg.co in orange? That case is burning my eyeballs.

It did take a second for the background pic to load for me as well.

Although the format made me laugh and they are incredibly outdated, the videos really do explain everything in easy terms.

Great idea Gabi, and I like the look-n-feel of the site. Scott started posting tech stuff on SGL for similar reasons, and I always find it funny when he's looking something up years later and Google returns him his own blog post, lol.

Oh my gosh, this is hilarious. I love the kid that said he used to sneak on Barbie.com when his sister got up.

Just make sure that there are non-curry Indian options, just in case there are some of those weirdo "I hate curry" people in attendance.

I think that using kickstarter is pretty similar to having originally been on PBS. Pledges are pledges. I didn't even realize that there's an app. I'm going to check it out, because Reading Rainbow was one of my favorite shows when I was a kid.

We have some serious podcasting going on this week, but maybe @Nic can play next week while I'm away?

I think that Francesca might like this game. We need to play it while she's up in NY so that I can describe it to her and see if she's interested.

tee hee, I love me some science nerd jokes

Sounds like a cool game. We are going to have to play against each other when we have time. Does the multiplayer allow bots so that 2 people can play against each other without it being so obvious who the other player is?

It's so funny the the Miller peanut butter and chocolate chips tradition has spread. I forget that not everyone eats peanut butter out of the jar with a spoon, ideally with dark chocolate chips, until someone outside the family hears about it and reminds us that it's not exactly normal, lol.

Actually, I was trying to get rid of candy, so the cookies have a few m&m's and Reese's pieces too, and Ciana insisted on some rainbow sprinkles. I haven't tasted them yet, lol.

Scientists use the metric system, probably because the math is so much easier.
