Games, Game Consoles, and Phones ... pa-touey

The technology news reeks of games, game consoles, and phones anymore. The mainstream outlets just don't have anything to say about emerging technologies or those bleeding edge tidbits I crave in my reading.

So I'm left to my own devices and simply have to hunt them down reading all of the obscure rags in an effort to feel informed.

Once upon a time I was a gamer. Oh my, when I think of the innumerable hours spent at the keyboard with the various multiplayer monstrosities which used to command my time like a veritable deity in my meager existence.

Nowadays I have fewer interests and they are decidedly more esoteric than the next big smartphone trend, app, or game console on the horizon.

Oh well ... I suppose we all have our crosses to bear and the sophomoric interests of the masses will likely have to suffice. At least I know where not to go online.

Boo !
