  2. EVERYONE'S brackets went to hell this year!

    Out of 5.9 million brackets filled out at ESPN.com, only 2 (TWO) had the correct final four. I love seeing the top seeds go down (unless it's my team, of course). I'm no VCU fan, since my sister went to Richmond, but god bless 'em for taking...

  4. What classic video/computer games do you play?

    I'm quite partial to a game of Civilisation II or Colonisation (the original). They were both out in the mid-1990's but for just direct playability and fun they're hard to beat. I see Civ V is coming out soon but I've played both Civ III and...
