It's dangerous to go alone. Take this!
Sorry the image is a little funky today. It’s not always easy to get DS screens that look decent.
As I’ve mentioned previously, Elite Beat Agents is one of, if not the, most underrated game of all time. Not only is it a blast to play but it’s one of the quirkiest and most fun video games ever made with each stage telling a different, wacky story. Whether you’re a cat making sure a baby doesn’t get lost on a construction site or an oil tycoon discovering ancient civilizations trying to strike it rich again, the series has a wonderful sense of humor. However, perhaps the best part of the game is the one with the least sense of humor. The stage based on the song “You’re the Inspiration” by Chicago follows a young girl who sadly lost her father in an accident. The story is all about the little girl and her mother just wanting to see him and spend time with him one last time, specifically on Christmas. So the Elite Beat Agents come in to help cheer the girl and her mother up but this time without any ridiculous dances or over the top songs, they sort of just sway back and forth and move very subtly. Of course, they get to see the ghost of their father/husband in the end. It’s one of the sweetest moments in any video game, in my opinion, and a lot of that has to do with the fact that you don’t see it coming based on the rest of the game. Definitely one of my favorite gaming moments of all time.

I am a bit glad I was unable to go to Spring Caravan this past weekend…Too much drama from what I heard. Now I am worried about the future of my college’s belly dance club. /Sigh
I was at the Spring Caravan this weekend… I’m not sure about what went on with your own troop, but there was some drama with my own. :/

When a group of dog rescuers arrived at the market to show the dogs available for adoption, somebody had left 12 puppies on the street – 8 of them were approximately 5 weeks old.
In shock, the rescuers didn’t know what to do. The group had recently canceled several adoption days at the market because of bad weather, so they were over their capacity with puppies still needing to be adopted out. Also, the abandoned puppies were so small that they needed to be fed every two hours, including at night.
That’s when a spayed stray dog approached, lay down beside the shoe box where the puppies were sleeping, and began caring for them.
She wouldn’t let anyone get near the babies.
Very carefully, the rescuers placed the puppies closer to her.
She began caressing them and offering the warmth of her belly to the newborns.
The maternal instinct kicked in and…
after a few hours, she had milk and was feeding the puppies.
The rescue group named her Vida, which means “life” in Portuguese.
