I'm the first mammal to wear pants!

I must admit... I felt very modern when I first brought home my Wii, nearly a year ago (well, in September). I thought, "wow, I have this totally modern, quite bitchin' video game thing." I almost had to kill an old woman to get it - she literally interrupted my conversation with the Electronics clerk in Wal-Mart to get "the last one." The clerk even tried to tell her to wait, that I was there first, and that I had asked first. But she blurted out that she wanted that one right there, and there must be some policy that once it was spoken (I was merely talking with the clerk, pointing and smiling, but hadn't said, "I want that Wii, right there," yet), the customer that makes the request first gets the product.

Anyway - day-dreaming of destroying old ladies with modern video game consoles aside - I was feeling modern. I bought Madden '08.

I played it once.

And now, I have a Wii Fit. I have only purchased a few games since then, that first, fateful day (not counting the purchased downloads of old NES and SNES games - the real hidden treat of the Wii). But now... I am feeling modern.

And fat.

The Wii Fit is quite a unique little thing. It is slowly becoming the rage at work. We are coming in and discussing it, in the hallways before 8:00 a.m. People big, fat, little, small, tall, short, wide, skinny... we talk about Wii fit.

That was a good exercise. Let's work on trimming your waistline.

I can say this: I have at least played it twice... that's once more than Madden '08, and counting!
