I am super stoked about the new SimCity, but I have to say all the "green" stuff is really turning me off. I welcome complex mechanics based on real world challenges, but please don't make the environment THE central message in this game.

Despite the assurance that it won't be, I'm beginning to be a bit skeptical.

Camtasia is awesome!!

Although I've disagreed with some of your points on previous posts, your posts are great and you don't fill it with an excess of opinion. Keep up the good work.

Moving from a system that is simply informative (i.e. the current system with a simple MPG) to a system that traditionally represents a pass or fail is something I would have a beef with also. Gas mileage isn't the only measurement of a good vehicle and that's what the lettering "appears" to do. The intention may be to only rate gas mileage, but if that's the case, re-work it again to allow for a numerical MPG.

I love your blogs, but I would really like it if you used bullet points or numbers when listing things.

Keep up the good work.

I just bought an Xbox 360 and we now have netflix streaming over wifi. I was a bit hesitant about the wifi streaming, but we get HD quality almost always and absolutely love it.

I hate cable and their constant price hikes so I cancelled years ago. Now that we have Netflix I imagine we will never see cable again.

Good riddance.

I am on board with lifetime subs. This is a yummy deal that is certain to make Santa and the elves quite happy.

The longer I'm subscribed to this blog, the more I see articles that have nothing to do with finance.

I could care less whether or not NBC decides to air a commercial about beer, blondes, turkeys, or hamsters. I am here to read articles about finance and this isn't the place to be apparently.

By the way. Your tags for this article....Food, kids and money.....This article isn't about any of those things. This is about a commercial which some corporation decided not to air.

Congrats on the double whammy insult to those opposed. Years of higher education have certainly prepped you for the blogosphere.

Well I chuckled. I picked up on your sarcasm at the end and hope others did as well. I imagine that this article was mostly written as a satire, but it's hard to tell these days.
