Gamer Grub - would you eat this?
Friday, October 3rd, 2008
Have you ever wished those potato chips weren’t so greasy?
…and came in flavors like Strategy Chocolate?
…in ergonomic packaging?
…and had like, vitamins in them?
…and weren’t actually potato chips at all?
Gamer Grub is the product you have been waiting for.
It will be available in 2009 - presumably for a very short time.

John Mayer on the Guitar Hero phenomenon
Friday, June 6th, 2008
Bad car analogies? John Mayer loves them. After being asked how he feels about “the whole Guitar Hero-game phenomenon” in a recent interview, he responded:
I don’t ever want to be the kind of guy who rails against whatever progress has taken place. But Guitar Hero was devised to bring the guitar-playing experience to the masses without them having to put anything into it. And having done both, there’s nothing like really playing guitar. I mean, what would you rather drive, a Ferrari or one of those amusement-park cars on a track?
I take it you laugh to yourself when you see kids with training wheels on their bike too, John?
