This is a test of the emergence weblog system. If this were a real emergence, there would have been following information regarding the place that Locust had recently appeared.

So I was at Delaware for the weekend. The family we were visiting had an XBox 360, so I played through Gears Of War co-op and had a startling revelation. An 8 year old boy can be a better partner than the knobhead the computer gives you. It brings up some questions about game design and artificial intelligence that I didn't think I'd be facing going into the new game systems. And yet here we are.

I still can't believe that I went to another state and I still just played video games the whole time. But a vacation's a vacation.
