[Gears of War 2 spoiler] My vote for best videogame line of the year: http://is.gd/6U22

Wow. Apple introduces phone, takes over phone market completely in just a few years. http://is.gd/6TZz

Bears are doing all right today

Keep moving, delta! Another dead grub!

Pushing Daises rumored canceled. Which would be a shame.

Trolls are so frustrating. Deep breath. It's ok.

Players recreating copyrighted songs in GH:WT http://is.gd/6EWC Well no DUH. As soon as I saw GH:WT demo at E3, this was a no brainer.

Up to Neos for the afternoon, hopefully grabbing GoW 2 on the way back.

I didn't realize until right now that the Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man was created just for Ghostbusters. I thought that was a real brand.

Oooh. I do kind of like http://change.com a little better than http://change.gov. But both are good.

Waiting for the weekend

Whoah did our President-Elect just set up a website with clear goals and a contact page? http://change.gov/

Back at home -- had some pizza, still a little peckish. My 7-11s do not have GoW 2, wondering if I should hit up a midnight launch.

Stepping away for a bit for Thursday tutoring and hopefully nabbing GoW2 at 7-11

Whew. Zombies defeated. New site at http://www.wowinsider.com. Thanks, Blogsmith team!

Zombies have invaded the WoW Insider offices -- follow @WoWInsider for more. This could be bad.

Did we ever figure out who won in Missouri? I'm seeing places that say both -- apparently it was very, very close.

I don't want to give any secrets away, but keep an eye on WoW Insider today. Something's... HAPPENING.

Cursebird = cursing on Twitter http://cursebird.com/

Gears of War 2 tomorrow! Or is there a midnight launch tonight?

there's that Palin blame http://is.gd/6t2R I would be happy if the GOP called on her for 2012, but I don't think she's making the short list

Yup, couldn't take it. Man that was bad. Going to play Fallout instead.

Made the mistake of trying to watch 88 minutes. Probably only going to last about 20

I need a new Facebook picture. I guess I should let people take my picture sometime.

Spent the morning with kids at Schiller School -- seems like even they were excited about change in the air.

I enjoy when my "journalistic integrity" is questioned for linking to sites that can't always stand up under the torrent of WI traffic.

Kind of think it's unfair that I promoted the @lich_king, but he ends up having more followers than I do. Guess I need a plague to spread...

Good news: John McCain can go back to being awesome rather than pandering to the right wing.

Reading conservative forums right now. They sound just as disappointed as I was four years ago: "How could America do this?" Interesting.

Still wondering about MO (if they don't pick Obama, it'll be only the second time in more than 100 years they haven't predicted) and prop 8.

Oh man. We're going to have a President who actually knows what he's doing again. Been a long eight years.

Just watched McCain's concession speech. I got nothing -- good guy, glad he didn't win.

CNN projecting President Obama. I can hear cheering outside the window.

Cracked the first beer open, even though I'm not done working yet.

Let's reflect a second: a black guy with the middle name "Hussein" is gonna be President of the United States. God bless America.

FiveThirtyEight.com projects an Obama win. All right. Now let's fix this place.

GOP spin begins: "It was a close race. This was a perfect storm. He had unprecedented money." There's a little Palin blame too -- ouch.

Still bummed about this not happening four years ago. But late is better than never, I guess.

http://isobamapresident.com/ "Almost."

I wrote in Thrall, by the way. Figured he'd be the most honest President we'd ever had.

Just watched the hologram thing on CNN.com. How silly. More importantly, when can I buy one?

Apparently CNN called PA for Obama on just 12k votes. This is why I kind of want to ignore results; last tally is the only one that counts.

Looks like Illinois went for Obama, I did my part. If Obama won Pennsylvania, that's good. MO or OH, you want in on this party?

I'm always disappointed with election results. Never want the other guy to win anything, and yet he always does.

My exciting election night plans: staying home working on Guildwatch.

Just voted. Time to start praying.

Awesome. http://tinyurl.com/5u5ec8

Haha GoW2 has a 3.4 user rating. They even had to put a note at the bottom of the page. http://is.gd/6jzP Go fanboys!

I'm glad I could encourage all of this WoW faketwittering. My favorite so far is @CroThreadstrong DO YOU NOT VALUE YOUR LIFE FRUIT VENDOR

Just hit a bucket of balls in this beautiful fall weather. Man, that's fun.
