Deck my back with pins

Gigantic congratulations to my friends Jeph and Cristi, who totally got married this week! I'm just sorry I couldn't be there for it... but then again, maybe that was for my own good.

For a (presumably) limited time, Ben Folds is streaming his entire new album on his MySpace page. There's a lot to like on there, but personally, it's Dr Yang and Kylie from Connecticut that I can't stop listening to. They're two very different songs that that find Folds at the best of both his favourite extremes -- or is that excesses? Either way... applause!

Bitey the Shark

Apologies for any difficulty you might have experienced trying to access the Sam and Fuzzy website yesterday. Unfortunately, some server troubles kept the site offline for a few frustrating hours. But today, we are back in business!

Meanwhile, by popular request, here is a wallpaper version of the extremely special Sonic artwork I posted on Monday. It seems that I am not the only one eagerly counting down the days until I can finally take Bitey the Shark through a run of Sonic Leapfrog Extreme. Hopefully this small gesture will help make the wait a little more manageable.

Mr. Sin, as you may recall, goes through a lot of hands.

Have you heard the skinny on the latest and greatest Sonic the Hedgehog title? And no, I don't mean Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Chronicles, or Sonic and the Black Knight. I'm talking about SEGA's next attempt to improve on the beloved Sonic formula with exciting gameplay innovations and delightfully creative new characters. It's pretty top secret, but between you and me... here's a sneak peek at some of the artwork.
