Does Email Hurt or Help Friendships? In Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 (yes, I saw it and am not afraid to admit it), America Ferrera's character Carmen, long the thread (pun intended) that held the four friends together, becomes exasperated over her foursome's inability to communicate over distances. When they cite email as being the way they connect, and don't connect — Blake Lively's character Serena — er, Bridget — says, "It's not my fault I have a lame server!"

Buzz and I both love Wallace and Gromit. And what a better way for us to continue the love-fest than to play along with their crazy adventures, game style. A series of Wallace and Gromit episodic games is headed our way soon, but on which console.

Coming Soon: Backstroke of the West! We've seen Star Wars get butchered over and over again; must I remind you of the talent contestant who killed the theme with a trumpet, or Darth Vader drowned in Hello Kitty. Couldn't get much worse, but it appears that a blogger got his hands on Revenge of the Sith when it came out on DVD a few years ago. Bought from a not-sketchy-at-all sidewalk vendor, he popped in the DVD to find that it had been translated into Chinese, and back to English.

Original NES, Pagers, MixTapes? So Not The Wackness Yo, if you consider yourself any kind of Vintage Geek fan, then get thee to a theater to see The Wackness. Needless to say, I agree with Buzz's glowing review of the movie, but sitting in the theater, what was I cooing over more. The proliferation of mix tapes (I told you they were mad hot), the declaration of being loyal to cassettes, the boomboxes and — wait for it — blowing into a Nintendo game. Young entrepreneur Luke Shapiro also rocks, oh yes, a pager, and constant headphones.
