Hello,

I have successfully finished my third college semester and made the trip back home to a week of negative degree weather. I work outside so while the weather was, well ridiculous, I decided to buy a used gamecube game to entertain myself until the weather warmed up. This "quick trip" to buy a game turned into a irritating charade. Most big chain game stores don't carry old system games, which is nothing new, but I never realized how quickly it would get locally owned game stores to shut down. I mean it seemed like every place I used to go is now a gamestop or just a vacant building. After searching I found a locally owned store still standing and a bullmoose (A used CD, Book and games store, native to Maine) both of them had games from NES, SEGA, N64, Gamecube, playstation 1, and 2. The only thing I didn't understand the stores pricing. Why on earth are gamecube games on average 25 dollars, while the playstion 2 games on average are 15 dollars, why are sega games noticeable more expensive that NES games and last why are N64 no more that 5 dollars. When I asked both stores store owners how they did their pricing they happily replied with no useful information. I do not understand why these games are priced the way they are and if someone could please shed some light on this mystery that would be fantastic!

Yesterday was Fenway Park's 100th year anniversity since the first game was plaied there in 1912. What better way to celebrate in than having a few Red Sox legends receive standing ovations, followed by a game against the yankees. It was a beautiful day and would have been perfect if the yankees didn't crank 5 Homeruns to win 6-2.
