Mind of UPSLynx: Week of August 23rd

What the deuce? It’s freezing in Northern Indiana today! No matter, there’s business to attend to, such as the Icrontic Camping Trip in Iowa, the proper way to enjoy tequilla, the Xbox 360 price drop, and the upcoming 1.50 patch for the aged Battlefield 2 (you’ll find it’s like a fine wine or scotch whiskey; it grows better with age).

Also, I am looking for feedback from YOU, dear viewers. Visit this discussion and spill your guts, let me know what you love about Mind, what you hate about Mind, and anything else you mind about Mind (if you don’t mind).

    Not to mention, I'm honored - and I'm sure Cliff is as well - but we're not the only one chipping into the spirited discussion in the thread.

    Yes, but you guys are certainly the most dramatic about it.

    Thanks for highlighting my article, Bobby, I appreciate it.

    Also, I cried a little with you about the end of summer.

    I really wished I played online games. I'd love to hook up with some Icrontic guys for L4D or TS2 (even though I've never touched either).

    And man, are you smug at the end, Lynx. And tall.

    This!

    Yes, it's like that, but where you live, summer never ends!
    MAN I need never ending summer....

    And man, are you smug at the end, Lynx.

    Well, you know how I roll.

    By the way, the glory hole comment, if you couldn't read it the mic ID, was from Lincoln.

    Having known Bobby for a few years, I can vouch that he does not usually buy expansions... Unless the title is "The Sims." Then he is all over it. Now you all know where his true loyalties lie.

    ...Bobby and I are no longer on speaking terms.

    I believe it says that a "Keebler" said it.

    (PS: I have no idea what the first couple words of that were)

    Holy crap.

    I can't handle this. First Grimnoc, now Branson, my college roommate of four years.

    There is little room left in my back for any more knives.

    Allow me to present the facts. I bought ONE expansion for the sims. That was the first one released for the first game. The year was 2000. The Sims was still an interesting thing, it had not yet been whored out by a million expansions and legions of casual players. I would be hard pressed to believe that any of you didn't enjoy playing that game when it came out all those years ago.

    Branson... man.

    I enjoyed killing the denizens of my "houses"... does that count?

    precisely. who didn't? There were more creative ways to kill people in that game..

    For anyone wondering: No episode of Mind this week.

    Since last weeks episode went live Sunday night, I'm taking this week off to get the show back on track for Friday release.

    Plus, college football. My world is a mess.
