The packers packed the empty game cube box. I found it in a box I opened this morning. I paid to move and store an empty game cube box.

I have no idea where the game cube is. Probably at ExLax's place in California.

I asked Christian last night where the Game Cube is. He reported that he and his brother sold it to Game Stop in order to finance the purchase of their Wii system.

I've asked him to throw out the box.

The box was probably worth more than the system. $-) :ymsmug:

I've been using the Wii fit for a while, and got bored with it - going to pump and zumba classes a couple times a week it just seemed a little slow (the excercises are still great, but too much wait time picking the next one etc.)

I went out last night and bough AE Active for the Wii. Holy crap. :poo: It rocks. :-bd I started the 30 day challenge (intermediate level) and it was really good. Fast paced - combination of aerobic, strenght and flexibility....it goes form excercise to excercise quickly. Apparenlty the workout changes every day. They are supposed to be 20 minute workouts but It took me about 30 minutes to do it (will take less next time - I had to watch a couple of the how to segments) . It comes with a resistance which is adequate (I'll probably get a real one). I will probably by a real one. A strap on thing for your leg (the numchuck goes in it for some workouts) - you can integrate the balance board if you have one (not required). I was sweating my buns off at the end of the workout. :D

There are preset workouts in addition to the 30 day challenge (an assortment of levels and target areas) plus (I love this) you can customize your own workouts by dragging and dropping excercises from the list.

It was 50 bucks at best buy. I give this one multiple thumbs up :-bd :-bd :-bd :-bd

I have a suspicion that within the next month or two I am gonna be a part timer in this Wii world, despite my best efforts up to now to resist.
I figured in time my efforts to resist will go along the wayside like my fight against cassettes v vinyl, CD's replacing cassettes, Being land line-less, TV-setless, and the list goes on... obviously
