I Am Constantly Surprised That Women's Hats Do Not Provoke More Murders

by Rainier on April 2, 2010 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT | Filed under News

Glad April Fools' day is over! There were quite a few good jokes out there, and some were even funny. News was just a tad slower than usual, with people trying to avoid being confused for a possible practical joke or getting their thunder taken away by the loads of fake press releases. While we usually steer clear of anything suspicious, we did post the "Bethesda Sells 'Fallout' Franchise Rights to Obsidian" yesterday because I thought it was just too well written, especially coming from a fan-run blog/forum.

The weekend is near, and "Clash of the Titans" is opening nationwide. The plan is to see it early Saturday morning, hopefully beating any sort of crowd that's flocking to the 3D theater. We're very excited!
