My home machine does have internet access but no anti-virus software (oh, the drama that's causing right now). Now I wasn't going to bother using and flash drive to move pics BUT. . .some fun stuff happened when I was playing last night so I just had to take a few snaps and then (of course) I had to share them

I don't think females can be pollinated, which in the case of Sadie was probably for the best. She's not ready for that level of commitment. Though I hear you can send the alien baby back to the home planet, which boggles my mind. Why on earth would you do such a thing! Oh and I've also heard/read that alien babies don't show their sim (male) parent as a biological parent. The sim is merely an incubator. Eh, I'd just ignore that part. Any male sim of mine that squeezes an alien spawn from his loins is officially the bio parent, aliens and EA be damned.
I never thought about the can being wooden. That's too funny. Maybe aliens find wooden canes quaint, or like they're adopting a different culture. "All the elders are doing it, so I'll have a wooden cane, too!"
I pretty certain you can turn off the weather effects in the options area. I think you could do that in sims2, too. You just can't see the rain/snow. You can also use debug mode and shift click the ground to change the weather. I've been doing that lately. It's just raining too damn much and it's getting on my nerves. I'm also tempted to make winter shorter, since the snow is annoying too (in one of my other games it snowed every day of the 7 days of winter and the snow was so deep I couldn't even see the family cat when she went out in it).
Yeah, some of their wishes are nutty. And sometimes they have the shortest attention spans. I had Sadie out on a date at the fall festival and a raccoon came around and all the sudden she was obsessed with it. No, you can't PET the (probably rabid) raccoon! Though watching wildlife is an easy want to fulfill. My game is lousy with wild horses running all over the place. Sadie also took off (in a cab) and went all the way across town to pet a puppy. Guess that's the animal lover trait working over time.
I'm easily amused by graphics glitches. Like when the cab runs into another car or wild horse. Or when I saw the wild horse walking backwards down a hill. In one of my games, the newspaper levitates. It functions perfectly but it just hovers about one tile off the edge of the porch. Still amuses me.
I've heard that about the gnomes (how you can find them). I really want a magical one so I've had Sadie checking out the catacombs and mausoleum. The gems and metals are great ways to make money. They're pretty much the sole reason Sadie has everything she owns (though still no bed--the sleeping bag works too well).
I think I might want the Ambitions EP. But I'm going to wait a while before I decide. They tend to go on sale (for $20) quite frequently. But I need to play what I have more before I add stuff.
