Here is my column from about two weeks' back. Games reviewed, with a special nod to Kelly's brother Paul, were The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and Tony Hawk's Ride.

What I’ve Read: The Omnivore’s Dilemma

Better than just about any documentary on how your food is prepared and where it comes from, The Omnivore's Dilemma kills it in the first third of the book, giving detailed accounts to the uses and ubiquitousness of America's greatest food source, corn.I am a foodie and I care a...

What I’ve Watched: Sherlock Holmes

A Campbell family Christmas tradition is to go check out movies. It started many moons ago and continues to this day, and it's always fun to talk to my mom and plot which movies we shall conquer during my stint back in Louisville. First up, Sherlock Holmes with the always-cool...

Man Card Member, No. 404431, Issue 5

It's long overdue, but I have to at least share the belovedness of the turkey I smoked for Thanksgiving. I wasn't going to talk about it, but Kristin did say that I didn't shut up about how proud I was of myself for about three days at work afterward, so...
