I just picked this up... it's a collectible puzzle card game thing. Very interactive, you're expected to sign up at their web site and track your points and participate in online things. When you solve puzzles and get points, they send you cool little award pins; they also send you stuff in the mail and text messages on your phone. They cleverly also get you to keep buying booster packs of cards and encourage trading by printing unique codes on each card under a scratch ticket covering... so when you register online with a solution, it reveals extra stuff and gives you bonus points for solving and registering sets of cards. Harder cards and puzzles are more rare, of course. There are 256 puzzles per "wave". Supposedly there is also a $100,000 prize for solving some uber-puzzle and figuring out where a cubical object has been buried somewhere in the world.

If anybody out there is doing this, let me know; I need to trade cards!!

Amusing Thought of the Nanosecond

The new Mario game for the Wii is just like The Little Prince!

Except for the giant lizards, bombs, walking mushrooms, and birthday cake.
