Yes, the whole Venomous Family is still enraptured with the Wii. Even though he didn’t want one, VH1 can’t resist playing Wii golf at least once a day… if he can get me to stop playing Wii Tennis, that is. I love that game, possibly because all the grunting I do while playing is the closest I’ll come to resembling Maria Sharapova.
But before the newness wears off, I decided to buy a new game to keep us enthralled: Rayman Raving Rabbids.
At some point I want to get Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party, the game you play with your butt if you have a Wii balance board. Which I don’t. (I’ve all but given up trying to find a Wii Fit around here, so now I’m working on buying one on auction.)
So, although we probably have plenty to keep us busy, you know what they say: the more, the merrier. If any of you regular Venomites are interested in registering each others’ systems so we can play, send me an email. You’ll love having my Sarah Palin and John McCain Mii’s visit you on parade.

After my wife left me, she was hesitant about letting me know where she lived. I think the breakup resulted in a fair amount of consternation on both our parts.
In any case, she recently needed some IT support, and since I am the only IT guy she knows who works for free, she invited me over. When I arrived the first thing I noticed was this HUGE plasma TV in her living room! The second thing I saw was a brand new WII! Both of those items would have been nixed from the onset had I suggested we acquire them when we were married.
Still, she has said she won’t ask for any monetary compensation for the privilege of having been married to her, so I didn’t feel it would be right to mention either the TV or the WII.
Oh, and I did fix her computer, and then went right home and fired up the good ol’ Intellivision.

You got Raving Rabbids already? CRAP I was going to send it to you just outta the blue.
Fun game, isn’t it?

I’ll admit, the Rabbids TV Party game is the primary reason I went ahead and defied VH1 by buying a Wii. It just looks like so much fun!
But first I’m getting that Wii Fit, darn it. Even if I have to ask him to give it to me for Valentine’s Day.

You could get it yourself and tell him his V-Day present is you being more fit. If he’s smart, he’ll nod and smile. LOL

Cow racing and some ‘pushing a bubble up a river’ thing.

That’s pretty much the argument I’ve given him:
Me: “I want a Wii Fit for Valentine’s Day.”
Him: “Right. And then you’ll beat the snot out of me for giving you something exercise-related on a romantic holiday.”
Me: “No I won’t. I’ll be SO grateful I might even do the hula hoop thing topless.”
Him: “Where did you say I should buy one?”

Best comeback ever, says Red…to which I pointed out that she has one already, and I haven’t seen any topless hula-anything.
