So two conferences I would have loved to attend went on this week. Microsoft’s X06 and the Podcast and Portable Media Expo. Both seemed to have a lot going on too. Next week I’ll be in Oregon to see my sister so I may have a Monday or Tuesday show. Sorry about that.
For videos, the first video is what Katamari Damacy could look like if was real. The second is another commercial but has the Japanese Super Sentai like guys following this Salaryman everywhere.

Sorry for the lateness of the podcast. I am a little busy this week with car buying, the WIGI conference and other things in life. It’s been one year since I started it and have tripled my listenership since the early weeks of my first shows. I am thankful for your help and hope you will continue to listen to my shows.
The videos I have for you this week is first the Wii video shown at the website. I think it’s the best one in the lot. The second video is the next big thing in Japan. I guess the big thing now is cute young girls singing cute songs as LocoRoco and now these girls selling a spaghetti with cod roe in it.

I enjoy fantasy football ever since my brother bought a crummy computer football game that came with a free Fantasy Football book. It’s an interesting sport with a lot of strategy, cunningness, and a huge amount of luck. Steve from the Extra Points podcast has let me enter a “Podcasters League” so I can finally see how good I am at these things. Here are my competitors:
- Upon Further Review
- Redboy Podcast
- The Mind of Men
- The Philosophy Guy Show
- Cheap Date
- Barely Podcasting
- Ask Lyndon
- KC Weather Podcast
- Bucket Podcast
- Mrs’ B’s Patriot World
- The Wicked Good Podcast
I was computer drafted with my picks so here’s who I got drafted with:
- Matt Hasselback, QB of the Seattle Seahawks
- Larry Fitzgerald, WR of the Arizona Cardinals
- Chris Chambers, WR of the Miami Dolphins
- Thomas Jones, RB for the Chicago Bears
- Mike Bell, RB for the Denver Broncos
- Dallas Clark, TE for the Indianapolis Colts
- Joey Galloway, WR for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Drew Bledsoe, QB for the Dallas Cowboys
- Michael Jenkins , WR for the Atlanta Falcons
- Jerramy Stevens, TE for the Seattle Seahawks
- Nate Washington, WR for the Pittsburg Steelers
- Jason Elam, K for the Denver Broncos
- Matt Stover, K for the Baltimore Ravens
- Pittsburg Steeler Defense
- Atlanta Falcon Defense
This might change if things get interesting. But I should have a solid team. (Excluding RB) Hope to see you all at the Super Bowl.

So I guess I’m taking this Fantasy Football thing pretty serious as I was watching it all day Sunday. Luckily I got the podcast in last night with some slight audio problems. I’ll get that taken care of and hope you’ll enjoy our one year show.
The videos I have for you this week is the 1k Project where gamers use the ability in a game called Trackmania to repeat multiple replays at the same time. This looks really cool. The other video I have is the University of Michigan Mississippi State University (incorrectly stated on podcast) marching band playing video game music during half time. Great stuff. (Second video was deleted off YouTube. Sorry Guys)
