Today is my mom's birthday!!! Happy Birthday Mom!!! And today is Disney Land's 53 birthday!!! Happy Birthday Disney!!!

Tweety says hi!

Here's a cupcake for you!

Ok, so E3 is wrapping up today, and I'm happy with what I've seen so far. I can't wait for SW: The force Unleashed to come out, and also Animal Crossing: City Folk! Those are DEFINITELY on my birthday and Christmas lists.

And, today this emblem will hopefully be changed to this emblem .

Oh, and my next blog will be... interesting, so you'll want to check it out!

Yay! So, today is my 200th blog. So, lets have a blog party!

Ok, so, did anyone else not get the Nintendo emblem? I watched the whole thing, but GS was down for maintenance for most of it :( So, I only got the Sony emblem.

Oh, and there was a bomb alert at our local TV news station. Someone thought it would be funny if they dropped off an unmarked box. When it was opened up, there was a cake with numbers on it and a wire sticking out. They had to evacuate the building.

Here's the article on their website:

A promotion for the upcoming release of "Dark Knight" prompted an evacuation at KENS 5 Eyewitness News this morning.

Firefighters and police were called to the station after a suspicious cake with a number written in icing with a wire sticking out was delivered in an unmarked box to the station shortly after 11 a.m.

Employees were allowed back into the building just before noon after firefighters determined everything was safe.

A spokeswoman for Santikos Theaters said an e-mail should have been sent to the station alerting them about the cake being delivered Tuesday morning.

Here's a picture of the cake.

And here's the broadcast that made the news. Video

Pretty weird right?

Until the Nintendo E3 press confrence starts. By the time I'm done with this blog, it will be in less than 30 min!

So, me and Stephen went out and had dinner last night :) And we played Tap Tap Revenge on my iPod. That game is fun! And, its free. And you can download extra tracks... for free!

And then we played some card games... which I won... most of them. He won a couple of them. ;)

There are certain words, including 'cla s s and 'styl e, that we do not allow while creating links in your messages because they are a doorway into several js exploits. Unfortunately, if you should have words that have 'cla s s in them (e.g., cla s sify, clas sic, etc), they will also be forbidden. We are looking to find the best solution for this problem, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. [/spoiler]
