Re: New Smash Bros. game - It’s fairly great, even though I’ve mostly slogged through the tiresome single-player “story” mode and played against bots. I don’t have it on hand, but we should trade friend codes since everyone I know around here is too cool to own a Wii and, thus, lacks Super Smash for any sort of online play. But since Nintendo is stuck in the year 2001, though, they didn’t expect that the millions of fanboys who bought the game would clog the online-play servers, and I’ve yet to play a single match online, even against random people. I figure/hope it’ll be resolve fairly soon, since they’ll want to avoid the same embarrassment once Mario Kart comes out.

Wendy: We did not dance with the old folks, actually. Mostly because they were almost uniformly amazingly great dancers. They knew all the steps and everything! It was unbelievable.

JW: Yeah, I just got your message today (it was my first day back in the office). It was very professional! I was impressed. We definitely need to do something soon. Actually, I may be banging on your door this weekend as I’m going to get the new Smash Brothers game and need my Gamecube controller back.

Jack: Yeah, he was trying to do both at the same time, which ruined it. Bad magician who is hilariously awful but doesn’t know it == great. Bad magician who thinks he is hilarious == tremendously sad and worth walking out on. It was unfortunate.

And, oh yes, the metaphor. I knew I forgot something. Let’s see…. this trip was a submarine sandwich, rich with dressing, plenty of cheese, kind of gives a bloated feeling afterwards.

re: Magic Comedians/Comedic Magicians - Was he (or she) trying to be a legitimate form of both at the same time? I too would go with the Gob Bluth preference, in which it only works if said magic comedian/comedic magicians is lackluster at both, and the resulting bumbling of both the comedy and the magic makes both work. The inclusion of “The Final Countdown” by Europe doesn’t hurt.

also: What Graphic_V Travelogue is complete without a metaphor, such as a damn bus parked by the roadside? I am mildly disappointed at the lack of metaphor.

So that’s why you didn’t call me back when I left a message on your phone at work. You weren’t in the office at all, as your answering machine led me to believe. Shame, shame, shame, Matt.

So now that you’re back, we should start trying to hang out again.
