Runners Up: Wii Are the World -- Wii Will Rock You -- Wii Are Family --
It wasn't easy getting one of the new Nintendo Wii game systems into our house this year as a holiday gift. My youngest wanted to know how it happened at all. I told him, "Things had to be done. Let's leave it at that."
So now the entire family has been reduced to Mii's, or videogame icons. We actually sent out a digital New Year's card this year with all of us next to our icons (yes, that's where we used "Wii Are Family!). I try to give my family a degree of privacy on this blog, that's why you get to see only yours truly above icon-ized as it were.
There have been several people who have compared my icon version to a porn star as seen on "South Park." This hurts enough, but is made worse by the fact that as soon as I completed my icon everyone in the entire house (my family and all the neighborhood kids) pronounced my image as the only one that was "uncanny."
So far, I've gotten okay at tennis, lost a close round of golf, been knocked out in the first round of boxing. I think what I need is more practice. See ya...
