A soon to be ex-coworker (he's leaving my firm and therefore not highly productive in his final days anyways) introduced me to one of those websites that is bound to tie up many of your hours during the workday and make you completely unproductive. Click on it at your own risk, I wouldn't want you to get fired because you've been playing video games all day instead of work! http://www.everyvideogame.comThis site has some of my favorite classic NES games such as Tetris, Bionic Commando, and Karateka.
This coming Saturday is a big one for racing -- the season opener for the Formula 1 Championship Series in Australia, and the first major endurance race of the year in American Le Mans Series, the 12 Hours of Sebring. In F1 everyone's excited about the beginning of a new era--one without Michael Schumacher on the racing grid. The battle is on between reigning F1 Champion Fernando Alonso at McLaren Mercedes, and the hopeful successor to Schumacher's throne at Ferrari, Kimi Raikkonen.
In ALMS, the focus last year was on the debut of Audi's diesel prototype in LMP1 and the Corvette vs. Aston Martin battle in GT1. But this year the big show looks to be in LMP2, where a multitude of cars will debut at the season opening 12 Hours of Sebring in Florida. Acura and Mazda make their entry into the ALMS with LMP2 entries, and hope to give Porsche's newly updated RS Spyders a run for their money. Porsche returns with its Team Penske RS Spyders but also welcomes new customers Dyson Racing to the fold with RS Spyders of their own. I'm still bummed that Lexus didn't end up fielding their GT2 class IS350 race car in ALMS, but who knows, maybe that will return someday.
