2 December

What is this about?

  1. I read something recently about this urban obstacle course thing where people basically run through the city, jumping over things and off of things and climbing things. There's a name for it---I'll see if I can find it.

    Maybe it has something to do with that?

  2. I think it has to do with video games, specifically , the buttons on a controller. L1, R1, A, B, select, start, etc.

  3. It's called parkour.

    But I think AC is correct. I went back and clicked on "e-mail me," and the pop-up window had "Prince of Persia" along the top. Googled that, and it is a videogame. A little more digging, and discovered that it is being released in North America on December 1. The site is a UK url, so perhaps that's the release date there.

    And I'm very proud to say that I think this confirms I'm a nerd, but proves that I'm not a geek.

  6. No, LIT, I'm just really sheltered. :-)

    My last videogame experience was with an Intelivision in grade school. Never had an Atari; never had a Nintendo.
