Excellent! I will look into these. We have only got commercial games so far (Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja, Monster Dash, something Star Wars, and one that's pretty cool where you have to cut ropes in order - great for visual/spatial and logical thinking.) I am interested to see how the iTouch makes our upcoming holiday travel different. If only we had two.

I am marking the apps for later. excellent.

I was feeling a bit better today. Therapy was good yesterday and she gave me things to do which are helping. But then I start thinking I could go out and do stuff, like get things accomplished and my brain started racing and breathing went crazy, so no, not attempting to make plans and do stuff outside. Instead, I am going to take the computer and the iPod to my room and I am going to straighten it up for as long as I can and then I'll take knitting breaks.

I've finished my work for the day and have already gotten the mail, so really until 2:40, I should need to do anything except eat lunch.

In conclusion, let me say that there is a fish that lives off the California coast called the sarcastic fringehead.

Is this just another name for hipster douchebags in the Mission?

I think the Martha Speaks app games are fun (but I'm a grownup...) and good for vocabulary, if not phonics.

OOOOOOF.

Pope Calls Health Care An ‘Inalienable Right,’ Urges World Governments To Provide Universal Coverage

So does that mean the Pope is Hitler?

A while ago I read about a Catholic bishop in the US who was talking about the evils of universal health care or somesuch. Dude! Your boss (who happens to be infallible) says you're wrong!

So does that mean the Pope is Hitler?

Even worse, a socialist Hitler.

ION, these are real:

Oh, for FUCK'S sake.

Heh. The "Don't drink and drive" thing reminds me of when my sister and I were kids, and we got all the "don't drink and drive, and don't get in a car if the driver has been drinking" stuff at school. One night, our family went out for pizza, and my dad got a beer. He drank maybe half of it, with probably three slices of pizza. We get to the car to go home, and my sister and I both completely refused to get in the car if he was driving. No way, no how, he'd had a beer and we would NOT get in a car when the driver had been drinking. My parents decided that appeasing us would be easier than trying to explain "Half a beer with a lot of food doesn't make you too drunk to drive" to elementary school kids, so my mom drove home.
