Um, not going to put this on my “I Recommend” list…

But I did want to share my thoughts on the book with you!

Adventures in Paranormal Investigations by Joe Nickell – A great, if brief, collection of Mr. Nickell’s studies of various paranormal happenings across the globe in the service of Skeptical Inquirer Magazine. The book will not convince true believers of their errors but skeptics will find his tales light and entertaining reading. Several times I would have liked a more thorough study or investigation done, or perhaps more of the author’s thoughts and insights… I guess we’ll have to wait for Mr. Nickell’s next “real” book for that!

You’ll always be able to read my review of it over at Amazon.com

Tower of Shame – Games

games

There they are all the games I own but have yet to play/beat. Most of them are RPGs, you know what that means? 20 hour investment for most of them and that is if I’m rushing! I don’t have the time to game anymore, or the patience 😛

For those of you with bad eyesight that’s, from the top:  Lunar Knights, Final Fantasy 3, Eternal Sonata, Crackdown (one more guy!?), Oblivion, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Final Fantasy XII, Rogue Galaxy, Disgaea, God of War 2, Dragon Quest VIII, Kingdom Hearts 2, Steamboat Chronicles, Persona 3, Paper Mario.

… At least it isn’t as bad as my book towers!

Here it is, all the books that have been stacking up around here. The ones I didn’t get to this year. I plan on reading them next year, of course this is just the base of the tower as I’m constantly collecting new books that will increase it’s height… *sigh*

I don’t want to talk about the game until you’ve played it a couple of times. So please click here now and get it.

Play it a few times through (make sure you read the instructions on the page so you know how to play), each time only takes 5 minutes. Then leave your comments here. When you are all done I’ll say some things too!
