Miscellanea 1
We played the Sims 2 today. Very fun, although gameplay, so far, doesn't seem astoundingly different from the original. Why mess with a good thing, right? But what amazed me was the realism of the Sims. We recreated Jennifer's family, to the point of being eerie. There was my mother-in-law, with her constant scowl, Jennifer with her pale complexion and thin features, and my sister-in-law, a bit grumpy, a bit chubby, and with way too much makeup on. (Keep in mind that Jennifer designed her.) It's not just how they look, it's how they act. The Sims 2 takes into account the personality characteristics, and alters the movements and actions of the characters to act. So my mother-in-law really does scowl in the game, and my sister-in-law is a bit pushy, and Jennifer isn't very social. It's wild, and Jennifer will soon be playing it on her computer too, provided it will work on her video card.
Meanwhile, on the My Favorite Things front, one of my favorite things is people who are too lazy to take the trash out, so they DRIVE their car to the dumpster. I park my car near the dumpster now, so I can't help but notice these things. Today we went out and there was this morbidly obese woman taking trash out of her car. She only lives maybe a hundred feet away, but she'd driven the trash to the dumpster in order to save her the trouble, I guess.
In political news, apparently there appears to be a tie between the Kerry campaign and CBS News' forged documents. This has long been speculated, but now there's some actual evidence for such ties. Some have claimed that if there's a Kerry-CBS connection, that the election will be over for John Kerry. I don't believe this... the electorate, for whatever reason, is extremely forgiving of Democrats, even when their actions are plain malicious. CBS, not Kerry, or even Dan Rather, but CBS News will take the fall for this one.
Back here at home, the Democrats are attacking King County Sheriff Dave Reichert. You may know Reichert as the man who finally caught the Green River Killer. He's running for Congress, and Democrats are running negative ads claiming he doesn't have public policy experience. True, perhaps, but they don't mention anything about his Democratic opponent, who is a radio talk show host.
