SingStar and the Eagles

We have a new toy from Christmas... the SingStar line of video games for PlayStation. It's basically karaoke on the game machine, and it's great fun. Nick and I sang a duet of "Over My Head" by The Fray, and then Maria and I paired up for a painful rendition of "SOS" by Rihanna. Let me tell you, there's nothing you want less to hear than me singing this song. If we had a dog, it would have been howling in agony.

This evening we had my folks and my dad's parents over to watch the Eagles-Vikings playoff game. There was a lot of clapping and hollering throughout - like most people we believe we can will the players to perform as we wish by yelling at the screen.
