The changing weather


Since its now almost November, the weather is starting to chnage. The coldness is sticking to my steering wheel in the morning, and I can see my breath when i drive to school. Personally, winter is not my favorite season..I dont mind it but its not my favorite. Underdressing in the winter just feels aweful. What season does anyone most prefer? I like the spring when it starts to warm up. Does anyone like winter?

If you grew up with a Nintendo Entertainment System in your house, then you no doubt remember the Zapper, the gray (or bright orange) light gun that let you shoot at ducks, bull's-eyes, and banditos. After almost 20 years, Nintendo has brought the Zapper, at least in name, to the Nintendo Wii. It's available in stores today for just $20, and it includes a free game, Link's Crossbow Training.

Instead of a light gun, the Wii Zapper is a simple gun-shaped plastic shell that houses the Wii remote and nunchuk attachment for use in certain shooting games. Simple, curved, and white, the Zapper fits perfectly with the Wii's aesthetic. Despite its vague gun shape--it loosely resembles a Capone-era Thompson submachine gun)--the Zapper's profile is nowhere near as menacing as the original Zapper's. Frankly, it looks more like an abstract sculpture than a gun, all rounded and white with nary a sharp angle to be seen.

The Lottery


What if you were huddled around your t.v. watching the lottery balls pop up..You see that your numbers match the ones of the screen and you just won the lottery. What would you do? Me personally, I would immediately save most of it, and invest the money at an early age. Investing money at an early age benefits you greatly when you're older. I would also of course buy a new car and other items that I want. What wold anyone else do with the money? Would fall into the same boat with the other 90% of people who go bankrupt within the first year?
