Creative Experiences

Creative Experiences!

I came across a pretty cool website today that I would love to share with all of you. The site is a toy site where you can get information about toys like the Mickey Mouse Garage and the mickey mouse cars and find stores with the best prices. They even have information about toys for one of my favorite movies, Disney – Pixar movie Cars. And yes, I do own the DVD for the movie. I really like the Piston Cup Race Set toy they have on the site. Just from searching around on their site I can see that they offer some of the best craft and activity products around. And when you check the site out make sure you take a look at the Kid Zone. They have a few free games your kids can play and preview others. They also have a pretty cool looking family fun area. I really like the setup on this site, with all the interactive things to do. And the information about the prices for toys is very helpful so you can find the stores with the best prices. So if you’ve been looking to create a creative experience for kids and whole family look no further, because I found the place you’ve been looking for. I know I will be back to this site soon.

Star Defensive End

Star Defensive End!

During the Minnesota Vikings game last week Jared Allen, the defensive end for the Vikings had two below-the-knee hits on Houston quarterback Matt Schaub. And now the NFL is fining him $50,000 for it. Although during the game he was not penalized for it. Of course Schaub and Texans coach Gary Kubiak calling the hits a cheap shot. Schaub was injured in one of the hits and later had to leave the game. I watched that game, and although they did look close I disagree with fine. Or maybe I disagree because the Vikings are my favorite team. I really don’t understand how the league can fine these players if they where never penalized turning the game. I would understand if they where penalized for it during the game, but almost a week after you decide to fine them, come on. Is the NFL that hard up for cash these days. They NFL should revisit the way they do things in my opinion.

Sooner Or Later

Sooner Or Later!

Game 5 of the World Series is still on hold. The weather is just to bad to play in. And now there’s reports that snow is going to be blowing in tomorrow. So the chances are there will be no game tomorrow. The baseball commissioner Bud Selig flew home for the day. He will be coming back to Philly tomorrow. Bud Selig stated that they would stay in Philly until Thanksgiving if they have to. He’s not going to let this game play out in Tampa Bay, the Rays home field. I also read that game 5 tickets are being sold on stubhub.com for around $600 to $3500. These tickets are still good when the game is set to be played. This is the first time a World Series game ever had a suspension. There have been rain-shortened games, but never a suspended one. So now it’s a guessing game when this game will be played out.

Nintendo Silent Game Maker

Nintendo Silent Game Maker!

The video maker Shigeru Miyamoto as a gag order placed on him from Nintendo, and for very good reason.  If you never heard of Shigeru Miyamoto, he has created some of the greatest game for Nintendo.  Have you ever heard of Mario and Zelda, of course you have?  Well, those are a few of what he’s done.  Now the reason for the gag order is because his hobbies seem to turn into games.  And if his hobbies get out in the open it could cost Nintendo millions or even billions of dollars.  The last game he did was the exercise game Wii Fit.  He came up with this game during a routine workout.  So that’s why everything he does is top secret.
