What's in a Name???

Hello Peoples,

I found this interesting little site on the web from the Kabalarian Society. I didn't go through the entire site, but apparently, their theory is that your name(s) can tell you a lot about you and your health, personality etc. While I was not prepared to spend money on an actual name analysis report, the site will provide a quick, brief analysis of your first name (gratis) for you if you'd like to give it a shot.

Kabalarian Philosophy

It really wasn't far off for me:

The name Lesley creates the urge to be creative and original, but we draw to your attention that the name causes a superior, interfering quality that tends to resent the opinions of others.

This name, when combined with the last name, can frustrate happiness, contentment, and success, as well as cause health weaknesses or accidents to the head, worry and mental tension.

The first name of Lesley leads you to assume considerable responsibility and to prefer to work independently, without direction or interference from others because you have very definite ideas of your own.

Your mind is quick to comprehend and you can be depended upon to do any job well.

Because you tend to be somewhat of a perfectionist, you might insist on doing too many things yourself instead of delegating jobs to others who might do less satisfactory work.

This name does make you quite direct and straight-to-the-point.

Clearly, the Kabalarians don't pull any punches. ;)

That's it for today peeps!

Questions keeping me awake tonight... PS3 vs Wii

Hello friends,

It's 1:30 am here in Toronto and, surprise! I'm not sleeping. So, one of the sillier things that was bumbling around my mind was regarding the upcoming battle between PS3 and Nintendo Wii (pronounced wee) for the best Christmas sales. Apparently if you haven't already pre-ordered a PS3 you might not be able to get one before Christmas (thus making it even more desirable). I'm not sure I heard that about the Wii, but I wouldnt be surprised.

I did, however notice a few startling differences between the two big new console game release: The price of the PS3 is almost twice as much (maybe more) as the Wii. While they both have hand held wireless remote controllers, PS3's don't appear to have changed much, at least style-wise, whereas Nintendo has taken a dramatic turn from the tradtional double handed gameset controller and the Wii will have one wireless remote shaped more like a tv remote (with different buttons) and a second remote (I haven't fully determined what that remote is for yet, but there is a cord coming from it, so I figured it was attached to the console.

I understand the reason for change: it helps us to grow and develop and expand our possibilites, and I was fully in support of the Wii when first I heard about it (I am now, and have always been, almost exclusively a Nintendo fan). However, I was watching a tv commerical recently and it had a happy-looking sort of IKEA family jumping around and swinging the controllers as if they were bats or something. Serioiusly diasppointing commercial. It almost made me want to buy the PS3 because of the next PS3 commercial I saw which showed the handset moving and causing a bunch of eggs to move along with it on its six axes.

Anyhoo, the marketplace will decide. I will probably stick with Nintendo because I generally prefer the games they have (plus, if I really want to play PS3, I will get my nephews to bring theirs over!).

Peace out peeps,
