Tue, 01 Jul 2008 14:59:19 PDT
Believe me when I say this: I’d rather be gay then to stare at Britney Spears bending over in front of me – basicaly that’s the main reason why I’d be gay in the first place!

SURVIVING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 08:13:07 PDT
The first sign I noticed was the guy with the shaky head. CBC Newsworld was covering the flooding of Cedar Rapids, Iowa and either unable to send their own reporter because of budget cuts or in need of American instruction on how you cover a major TV story these days, they opted for a live feed from NBC News.

Could this be a tease for an Animal Crossing Wii reveal? The same page also claims that the next issue will have a scoop on 2 brand-new Wii titles. I am afraid to start speculating!
