Support my wife's insanity!

It's pretty much a given that my wife is insane, proven, if nothing else, by the fact that she married me last October.

But her latest project takes the cake, as she's decided to partially Blog-a-Thon next weekend (August 6), to raise money for The National Multiple Sclerosis Society, in memory of tx_db8r, who passed away earlier this year.

You can read her post about it right here. It's for a good cause, even if it's fucking insane. Go support her!

Three Links worth reading

Motley Fool on the new payola scandal, and why it's hard to sympathize with record labels over file sharing.

Gamasutra on the importance of story in gaming (the element of story, incidentally, is why I've always considered the Marathon games to be superior to the Doom games. Well, story and gameplay).

PVP sums up Wizard's current Con schedule perfectly.

Zombie Survival Tip #243

When you see a zombie carpenter, what warning do you shout to your companions?

Dead Man Caulking.

Stealth

So, how bad is Stealth?

One of the few positive reviews, Josh Tyler's three-star take at Cinemablend.com, gives it props on the grounds that "Stealth is a movie so bad, it’s almost good."

As for the really negative reviews:

Local critic Eleanor Ringel-Gillespie: Move over, Michael Bay. "The Island" is no longer the loudest, dumbest movie of the summer.

sweinberg: "This movie hated me from the opening scene; two hours later, it was mutual."

Roger Ebert: 'Stealth" is an offense against taste, intelligence and the noise pollution code

Yeah, looks like we've got a winner here!
