I had just glanced at Major's RSS feed and noticed it said Major grounded, and wondered what it was all about. I'm sure he is really disappointed, and I hope that no one in fact is impersonating him while smuggling a large amount of illegal goods in/out of the country...

Do you think it says "Major Nelson" anywhere in his passport?

Woah! What is with the change of avatar hvnly? Why replace the eyepatch with glasses?

Damn that sucks. I recently missed my flight BACK from Japan. Maybe we can trade refunds and get a round trip out of the deal for one of us. Or he could always pull a Flight of the Conchords and just kayak the whole way there.

Maybe he accidentally dropped it into the 360 he shipped back due to RROD?

How will be able to bash the PS3 from so far away?

I am really disappointed. I can't believe there haven't been any Microsoft Passport jokes as of yet.
