6/1/2009: Scrabulous is back! 5 months ago

Oh the days of Scrabulous. Playing the super-duper fun game of Scrabble online. See what fun words my friends would come up with. Oh yes.

After IMing my brother about how I miss Scrabulous, I did a google search for it, just outta kicks. The first result was the wikipedia entry for Scrabulous. And lo and behold! SCRABULOUS IS BACK!!!! It’s now called Lexulous. Who knew!? I didn’t! How did this slip by? What happened? Wasn’t Hasbro’s undies all tied up in a knot?

The Wikipedia entry explains that the Indian high court ruled that they were allowed to make the game as long as they don’t call it a name close to Scrabble. So they just renamed it Lexulous. On September 27, 2008 www.lexulous.com was launched with all the previous stats! In fact on January 1, 2009, Lexulous was back on facebook! Crazy!

Oh so what about Hasbro? They withdrew their lawsuit on December 20, 2008. Hahaha. SWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEET.

AND THERE’S A LEXULOUS IPHONE APP. Yeah, it’s $3.99. But i’ll drop that for LEXULOUS ANYDAY!

2009 Movies in the Park schedule is released 7 months ago

I updated my Chicago Movies in the Park post to have the new 2009 schedule.

I just realized I have not gone to Movies in the Park since the showing of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off… back in 2006. I can’t believe it’s been that long. I totally missed the 2007 and 2008 season.
