So, being particularly slow, I knew that my brother Paul was pretty impressive, but I didn't know that he's totally famous! Seriously, he is a game developer for Electronic Arts, and he programs sports games for X-Boxes.

Come to find out, he's being wooed by a VC-funded startup in San Francisco to come join them. The start-up, Red-5 Studios, is run by the people who did Worlds of Warcraft. Anyhow, he didn't take the offer (it's clearly very expensive to live in the bay area) even though it is lovely and there are lots of smart people to talk to, but apparently Red 5 got some good publicity from the offer methodology.

Also, for those of you who don't know, (like, everybody, since I don't talk about this stuff much) my sister is a blogger too. She runs an embroidery design studio and blogs about it. I have to brag a little, I, the naggy little brother, convinced them both to try blogging and now they're both better at it than I am :)
