In celebration of lonos special moment, I have compiled a list of things she should learn while growing up =).

1) Never lend things out to uncle Doc
2) Do not develope Lono Syndrome ( Excessive use of the word fanboy)
3) Have Frawlz teach you how to jump rope.
4) Avoid Xbox Live
5) If you play on Xbox Live, let lono use the headset. ( To curse out naughty male gamers)
6) Do not learn anything from Dave
7) Avoid listening to Docs Ipod for human torture reasons.
8) Don't send Pacmanpolarbear gifts. It'll most likely be the wrong item.
9) Become official SG T Shirt model in 2028. Sales should finally pick up at that point.
10) Don't play games with lono. He'll get mad if you do something wrong =P.

Okay Doc getting a Wii, that might cause the apocalypse.

that would be the outcome. the catalyst would be him picking up the beer pong game.

The cool thing is that Doc was considered and even became their second choice. That proves that Sarcastic Gamer is breaking out into the mainstream.

And Doc getting a Wii......... I just have a very bad feeling if he does get some there will be even more bad Wii puns.

As far as the price drop for the PS3/360 affecting Wii sales:

I was back in Wyoming last week and my sister and her kids have a Wii, I was pretty impressed by it's ability to draw in adults that would otherwise never touch a game system, so that's one thing it has that the other 2 systems can't do as of now.

naruto20
07-12-2008, 02:06 PM
The 360 is now near the wiis price range but ps3 is 100$ away sony has to start showing hey it has blu ray hey it has cell hey it has blah blah blah to say why you should buy a ps3.

Doc and Dave are going to be there Monday, so we might get a special episode of the podcast then. I hope we get one every day, but I doubt Dave will have that much spare time...

Doc, I don't care about most of E3, I just want video coverage of the Nintendo conference, Fallout 3, and Spore. :D That's all I really care about.

But it wasn't scripted. Lono said so.

Martini Times are the only thing that is always scripted

We went to the hospital right after that and the baby was born around 5 in the morning the next day.

Martini times are never scripted... sure we ponder what we might say but 75% of the time martini time ends up being something crazy thats said while we're brainstorming jokes...

Nothing is "scripted" we do edit and discuss what we may say, but everything you hear is 100% real.

Nah, it means that Lono doesn't post a lot of blogs. Not many people do.

Great episode guys, though making it so early was a little weird.
My monday morning is going to be so empty :lol:.

I havent seen it yet cuz i dont have any of this technology, but "Always bring a towel" is from Hitchikers guide to the galaxy. Towelie doesnt say much. He just shoots up.

Doc I think you would have been an excellent choice, sorry bro. I'm sure many new and exciting opportunities will open up for you. You guys are just too good not to get any. The ending was HILARIOUS! I guess I need to keep a towel with me at all times.

On a side note, I recently came across this website and absolutely love it! because of you guys I can't listen to any other podcasts (I never realized how boring "the hotspot" was until you guys). Keep up the good work! This is my first post!!! :grin:

Ah yeah, I forgot about that whole thing.
Towlie always does say "Don't forget to bring a towel" though, so it could be either one.

Once again Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Lono.

Sorry you did not get the gig Doc. But it is just too cool that they asked you in the first place - but you did make runner up.
You should have Jeff Gillooly Dave visit the person who did get the gig.

Have a safe trip guys.

I'd post some Jerry Seinfeld jokes on second place but I don't want any hard feelings!

Thanks for the early podcast, Dave! Made my day!

Congrats Lono on you new child!

...Think I'm done.

You guys are doing things perfect, if it ain't broke don't fix it!

I think this was a show where you could talk about yourself as much as you like. the week before E3, so there was little/no news. Lono was having a baby, you were almost chosen for a really big role at E3. Its awesome that they asked you, well done, absolute congratulations. And you are going to E3 to cover the biggest news around. Good enough reason for you to talk it up in my book.

So, anyone want to take a stab at when we'll be seeing a new podcast episode? My guess is that they'll be too tired from E3 to record anything for this week...maybe a special E3 wrap-up episode in place of the Humpday Update, after they have the weekend and a day to relax.
