Tossed!!

Grenades are my new best friends in HALO. Nothing beats watching an opponent, in this case, Aaron getting blown up, not once, not twice, but thrice by grenades. Master Chief must have a pretty good pitching arm :P

Barrels of Fun, but Why is The Rum Gone?

I bought something that looked like a Grenade at first glance from an online store, but it's actually a movie merchandise item for Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.

According to the web site:

• The U-Mate Pop-Up Pirate is an unique puzzle / strategy game.
• Set the pirate into the barrel and slide the sword into the barrel, If the pirate pops out on your turn, you are out.
• Pop-Up Pirate features the famous Pirate Jack Sparrow.
• A great game with the family and a fun game with your friends!
• It is available in different styles
• Size: Approx. 8cm (L) x 9cm (H) x 8cm (W)

I'm not one who usually buys this kind of stuff, but it does look, cute and I need something to boost my purchase price to qualify for a discount. With any luck, this and Planet Puzzle League will be arriving next week :).
