Some end of week links
Grrr, I had to go to work today. So I’m just throwing some quick links at you. Hope your holidays were fun, though.
- If you, like me, were gifted with Boom Blox for the Wii this Christmas season, here are the cheat codes you might like to use.
- And “It’s a Wonderful Life” is not so wonderful.
- Best and Worst New Logos of 2008. I like the Pepsi typography. Not sure the image works. Most of the rest of not all that shocking. Interesting to compare and contrast, though.

If you, like me, were given Boom Blox…
Fixed.
(Semi-irrational pet peeve of mine, I know…)
(And yes, I know that using ‘fix’ in place of ‘repair’ is colloquial at best, but in this case the idiom is shorter and pithier than the proper phrase, at least.)
(Isn’t nit-picking grammar fun?)

Hum. “Given” was supposed to be underlined in that reply, and “Boom Blox” in italics like the rest of the edited quote. At times like this, I wish there were a preview function…

Yeah, that was awkward. Thanks for the pointer.
Grammar nit-picks are always the worst. Inevitably, your nit-pick will not be grammatical in some form or fashion. I salute your bravery, Jody, in setting foot on that perilous and shaky rope bridge!
