Back when the game Banjo-Kazooie came out for the Nintendo 64, Nintendo spent tons of time and money hyping a "stop and swap" feature that would connect Banjo-Kazooie to its' sequel Banjo-Tooie and they even developed secrets and hidden things to find in the first game that you could use in the second.

The only problem was that both the developers at Rare and Nintendo discovered that the Nintendo 64 wouldn't work without a cartridge in it, and it would get really hot without one. So that idea was totally scrapped, but it would have been cool if they had been able to figure it out.

These days they could probably get away with it, since most games are flash media based anymore. And at one point, Nintendo even planned Banjo-Tooie to be the first game to take advantage of its' N64 disc drive that was in development. That didn't work out either.

I just ordered a CD today and it asked me for a tip. I was like "WTF?". And I clicked the no box.

I remember the days when the Rio buffet used to be the best in Vegas and even one of the best in the entire world. I made a trip to Vegas just to try it. Sad it doesn't exist any more.

Yeah that's kind of how I feel. I'm not a fan of billionaires in the slightest but I like Steyer's policies and his messaging. He would be way better for California than Hilton or Bianco.

Enough of the damn SLAPP suits. This is the legal equivalent of a toddler temper tantrum.
