DISQUS

Dennis Miller once said a really funny quote - paraphrased here - that he and his son had a great old-time father-son game of catch experience by playing a video game of a father and son playing catch. Perfect irony and disappointment. The commercials for the Wii show tow people looking like idiots playing tennis in front of the TV. What happened to actaully going out and playing tennis? If you want to play golf - go play golf! How sad is it that we now have video games to play the games we should be playing outside and enjoying the benefits of excercise, hand-eye-coordination, and development that comes with the physical activity? For the sake of the kids, don\'t buy a video game console to replace the activity of being a kid. When I was young it was simple - the door outside was opened, and we were told to go out and entertain ourselves. So we did. Now our kids are fat and lazy and lack physical ability.
