Last night, I introduced William to the wonderful world of TurboGrafx 16. Ever since he was a very very little baby, he liked headbutts, I think “bonk” was one of the first things he said reliably, and certainly one of the few things to guarantee a giggle from him.

So last night I fired up a little bit of “Bonk’s Adventure” William had a lot of fun making him bonk his head, and jump, and walk, and eat the walls. He laughed pretty hard. Of course he was in a good mood because he had been playing with Grandpa John in his playroom. From what I heard from the other room, they had a pretty good time together.

Not much else to tell though - I’m getting pretty close to having my XBox ready to step in as a MythTV frontend - all that’s left is installing/configuring MythTV I think. I tried using Xebian, but I couldn’t get the boot disc to boot up properly. End result is that I’ve just now completed an FTP install of Gentoox. The only reason I didn’t go Gentoo(X) in the first place was that I didn’t want to wait for the XBox to compile MythTV, and I didn’t know if I’d be able to set up distcc to share the load. I still don’t know if I could get distcc to do it, but I think that by the time I figure it out, the compile will be done anyway.
