Getting our creatinating flowing.


For Christmas Becky and I got a video game called Little Big Planet 2. For those not versed in the video game world this is a game where you can not only play level but make levels. They include tools where people can make some of the most incredible stuff I've seen in video games. We decided to try our hand at making something.


Becky sat through all the tutorials and I thought a simple music based level would be good for our first attempt. She worked for hours coding in John Schmidt's Waterfall, one of her favorite piano pieces. Out of what she plays it is one of mine as well. I thought it would stop there but she also decided to make a huge platforming level so the player can run though and have the song end when they hit the end. We then took an hour decorating it and learning more nuances in level building. It was fun.

if you have Little Big Planet 2 feel free to try out the level and give us feedback. Everyone else... run out and buy it. It's amazing. Here is the link:

Jimmer what? Jimmer who? Switcha flow getcha dough.


Jimmer Fredette, the new BYU basketball sensation is sweeping the nation. This has led to lots of people using his name in common speech. SDSU got jimmered! Inspired by my cousin's disdain for nouns turning into verbs I decided to figure out even more ways to include jimmer into normal speech. Jimmer it in there so to speak.


You got jimmered

I jimmered in my pants

Getting my jimmer on

Don't jimmer with my stuff

Jim jimmery, jim jimmery, jim, jim, jery

It's jimmer time

Quit your jimmer jamming

Shoot and fredette it

Fredette yo' neck

Unfredettable

Fredetaboutit


OK, I snuck some Fredettitudes in there but who cares? BYU might actually get out of the first round this year. That would be jimmerific!





What we do for fun


So the best part about Little Big Planet 2? The clothes...

Being accident prone is apparently quite contagious

Not sure how many people know (I guess I forgot to tell my family at least) but I just went through knee surgery a week ago. Things went well and it turned out to be just an arthroscopic surgery and not a full ACL reconstruction like I've had in the past. The pain is there but much less than my past surgeries so I've been quickly recovering and trying to get back into real life again. For some reason my wife won't let me play basketball this weekend though.


Becky unfortunately has also come down with some sort of knee injury. The pain is near unbearable recently and she's been having trouble walking. At church we look like a pair of cripples hobbling along trying to support each other even though we both are limping. The weird thing is she has no swelling, inflammation, redness, bruising, cuts, or anything normally associated with joint injury. We can't figure out what she did to hurt it and have no idea what it is. We see the doctor on Thursday but my suspicion is she caught it from me.
