This Week in the Crazy, Vol. II

Short post this time, kiddos. I've got some time between classes, and I did promise this to you.

Best Game Ever!

I made the statement, which I still stand by today, that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the greatest Nintendo game ever.

For those of you who had the fancy Playstations, you don't know what you missed. Ocarina held everything a gamer could want. Engaging storyline, familiar characters, new weapons, tasks and puzzles, and the return of everyone's favorite enemy, Ganondorf.

When I first opened up Ocarina of Time, circa Christmas 1998, I sat down hoping for a good game. What I got was a great gaming experience that still stands in my memory. I recall climbing the steps to reach the epic final battle. I think back on the first time I beat one of the major temples. You have to know, before this time I wasn't a big Zelda fan. This game single-handedly won me over.

Sure, the game was only one player, and in a world of online gaming, a single player game is almost rowned upon. But not the Zelda series. Shigeru Miyamoto brought everyone an incredible series, and, depending upon the success of Wii's Twilight Princess, this game stand as the current crown jewel of the Zelda franchise.

Political Oddity of the Week

Just this...

She could be our next President. If you have any private property you want to hang on to, well, hide it now...

And if you like a Socialist America, well, here's your candidate.

Where's Ross Perot when you need him?
