My hubby picked me up a copy of Sims Life Stories for Valentines day, and I must admit I've really enjoying my new little Sims. As a long-time player of Sims and Sims 2 (I have had ALL the expansion packs), I'm still happy with this "toned down" version of the game. Why? Because it does something the other versions have never done...

What if the current problems I'm always ranting about in the public education system in Kentucky were suddenly gone? What if there was a way to provide an excellent online alternative and what if that alternative was free?

EA Games has just announced a new mobile-friendly game, based on the famous Sims2 model. The company has announced three games, marketed under the umbrella of Sims Life Stories.
The first one is called Life Stories, is due out in February. The second, Life Stories Pets is due out this summer. The third is the one I most anticipate (probably because I'm such a huge "Lost" fan) called Castaway Stories.
But what do I look forward to most with this new offering?...

I just finished the fairly daunting task of rebuilding my Tablet PC.
When I bought it, I spent months doing what I do... pushing the limits and trying out everything. Now, I needed to fix the damage done by installing and uninstalling a plethora of programs -- I needed to regen the system for the new year.
Now that the task is mostly complete (I still have to install some small things that will undoubtedly bite my butt over the next few days -- there always is).
I thought that some other new Tablet PC owners -- or those contemplating owning a tablet -- may be interested in what I have running on mine and what I consider essential.
