In a highly depressing turn of events, I've been sick this week. Past tense probably wasnt the right choice, as I still feel like grim death - but thanks to dayquil and a frankenstinien energy drink that combines OJ with a disturbing amount of taurine, at least I'm on my feet =)

I said being sick was depressing not because I don't like being sick (though I don't), but rather because the illness pulled me out of the running to experience one of the midnight releases of Halo 3 earlier this week. In fact, I am still without my copy, which might make me one of the lamest game obsessives of all time. I hope this isnt what it feels like to be a "mature adult". That would be even worse than the flu...

Regardless, I did want to follow up on my previous post with the tally on Halo 3's opening day earnings. The skinny? $170 million bones, making it the biggest first day entertainment release ever. Can I get a shi-zam?
