Zeddy is abandoned in the woods! How did I miss this?



Poor Zeddy. Somehow this was a thing that happened back in September and I never heard about it! Zellers officially abandoned Zeddy. It's both sad and hilarious! Did you know he lives in Sarnia?

Don't worry, though. Apparently he has been adopted as the mascot for Camp Trillium. Yes, for real.

New Nintendo Wii Mini

Here's a strange thing. Nintendo is launching a smaller, less costly version of the Wii for the Christmas holidays but it cannot play GameCube games or access the internet. Weirder still, it will only be available in Canada, at least for now. Since when do we get exclusives like this? I can kind of see parents buying this to hook up in the kids' bedroom, attached to one of those Disney Princess TVs from Toys R Us. I don't know why else you'd want a crippled Wii console, but I love the boxy look. Yup, I'm one of those freaks that likes it when their toys look like toys. Forget you, Apple.


I guess this could work at the cottage. I wonder if it has collectible potential.

And now for something silly

Warning: strong language. And other weirdness.

Who do the Ghostbusters call?


An announcement about a new Ghostbusters comic caught my eye today. IDW publishing is relaunching their Ghostbusters comic with a new cast. That is not the part that stood out to me, though. It was that Janine has been promoted! There she is on the cover.

The storyline seems to be something like some demon or other actually defeats the previous ghostbusters and a new cast will be taking on the job, presumably to save them at some point.

You can read more about it here.

All the Wrong Questions


Earlier this week, this book appeared in my house. Until then I had absolutely no idea that there was a new series by Lemony Snicket. All I know about it so far is that this book came out on October 23, it's called 'Who Could That Be at This Hour?', and I will be stealing borrowing it from my little brother soon. You can have a look at the official website here, but don't tell anyone. It's a secret, 'K?

Impressive Lego Music Video

Someone with too much time on their hands made this amazing music video for Foster the People's Houdini using Lego people. I actually think it's as appealing as the real video. Also, the song is good. Check it out!
