As soon as I woke this morning, Doug was apologizing for not getting his chores done while I slept. It seems he had been distracted by a new online game where one pushes a cyber-guy downstairs, and the best yet random thingamabob generator. This time, it is inventions. Most of them are strange and/or amusing, but here’s one we can all use:
Design #4286160885
It’s a pillow that automatically updates your weblog when used!
Then there is this versatile device:
Design #576382166
It’s a crematorium that runs on a single AA battery, tracks infra-red and inflates balloons.

Seems he’s easily amused…..Spot
I’m not sure of the value of that particular game, but overall I’m thankful of the game playing my own kids have done. It’s helped them tremendously, and set them on a good path.
Sounds weird, but Chris and Danny both learned to read from Nintendo games, and Danny and Matt got interested enough in computers and wanting to be game makers to actually learn all those computer languages and programming in them.
So, weighing the pros and cons, games aren’t all that bad.
