"Computer games don't affect kids, I mean if Pac Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching pills and listening to repetitive music."

Yes. There is no correlation. *giggle*

My mom & I were at the Counting Crows concert two nights ago and Adam (the lead singer) was talking about the importance of voting. Apparently, he and the band had been called a bunch of hippies for promoting social causes. So he told the audience "So if you're a hippie, go out and vote. And if you're not a hippie, go out and vote or else all the fucking hippies will take over."

That's all I got.

That's awesome. Just make sure the hippies actually show up on the right day. It's like that scene from PCU, where all the hippies were supposed to have a protest, but they got too stoned and no one showed up on the right day.

Very true: People did boyvott novels and refuse to give them to their daughters. There was even this horrible kind of novel that read like one of the "bad" ones, but always ended with women dying because of some scoundrel. And the end would usually be an inscription from her grave, a warning to all the females reading the cautionary tales. And, without fail, the heriones of these books would read novels.

Sort of like educational games...without the meta-texting.
