The G1 is extremely versatile, I have been able to use it for a lot of things I would normally turn on my laptop to do. I just loaded my phone up a week ago with several old school NES games.

While I was playing Super Mario Brothers I thought about you. I had to share it, all the cool kids are doing it. You can play Super Mario Brothers 1, 2 and 3 and even Tetris (bonus!). I even have Dr. Mario to play, which is a lot like Tetris.

You can get the Nestoid app from the market but I can’t tell you where to get the .rom files (but Google is your friend) but if you like classic Nintendo games you should download the app and investigate getting some .rom files to play. My husband told me I can even use game genie codes if I want.

For me, being able to play the few games like Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt from childhood that I would play back then is a very cool feature. I’ll take a screenshot of it tonight and share it on Twitter, or maybe do a video for you real soon.

Now if T-Mobile would only allow tethering…
*update: I have found an excellent tethering app, details can be found here

Tuesday I wrote about the AIG executives getting million
dollar bonuses and how much that pissed me off. Then
Wednesday I read that the President as well as top
administration officials knew that these bonuses were going to
be paid.

Here’s what I can tell you, working in a law office I can
attest to how quickly someone will sue when they feel their
employee rights are being invaded, and when it comes to a
million dollar bonus being expected, had AIG not paid those
out, those executives would have all filed lawsuits, I am sure
of it. And they would have won. It doesn’t take an extremely
great attorney to prove a contract exists, or to prove that
the bonuses must be paid according to those contracts.

BUT…

Had these dumbasses been fired when the top people at AIG
found out the perils the company was in, these bonuses would
have not been paid out because the contracts would have been
null and void.

BUT SINCE….

We couldn’t look to AIG for common sense to prevail at the top
level and get rid of these guys before they came looking for
those bonuses, now the government is going to tax the bonuses
away.

What are your thoughts on all of this?
