We just got back from the Scorpions concert, and it was awesome. Good fun and good show! After 45 years, they are calling it quits. Since this was their farewell tour, they performed all their best songs like Blackout, Rock you Like a Hurricane, Big City Nights, Wind of Change, No One Like You, Dynamite and a slew of others. Oddly enough, they didn't sing Still Loving You. Wonder what the story is behind that one ...

Later today, we're going to a PopCap event and checking out something to do with Plants vs. Zombies. Nomz!
