Donkey Kong Country (SNES) is a great game and I will fight you with my fists if you disagree.

Update

  • Six more weeks and I'll be done with my third year of med school.  
  • Step 2 of my boards in July, general surgery rotation in August in Tacoma, WA, back here for September, another general surgery rotation in Honolulu in October, match in December, and M.D. in 12 months.
  • Completed Uncharted 2 (PS3):  Enjoyed the game, but I don't think it was the revelation to gaming that many proclaimed.  I felt like I was constantly waiting for the next story sequence and just trying to get through the gameplay sections.  I actually enjoyed the first one more than the sequel, but there were definitely some great set-piece moments.
  • Completed Halo 3: ODST (360): Really liked the atmosphere when playing as the rookie and the novel storytelling was a nice change of pace for the series.  On the downside, the gameplay felt a little too familiar, even with the changes Bungie instituted.   Not sure if I want to play another Halo game on Legendary difficulty, but I probably will give in when Reach comes out.
  • Completed Battlefield: Bad Company (360): The single player experience is surprisingly solid and I love the way the game lets you blow up nearly every structure to get at the baddies.   The story doesn’t do a whole lot, but the characters and dialogue are fantastic and kept me entertained throughout.   The repetitive scenery gets old pretty quickly, but the weapons and vehicles are a lot of fun.   The multiplayer is also fantastic.   Great game.
  • Goodbye.

Are you still a part of the military or something? The reason I ask is that one of my wife's doctors became a doctor on the Army's tab. I thought that was pretty cool, no paying all that money back. Of course, I could be mistaken, maybe I heard wrong. Either way, you go Doc.

Good deal sir, he's a kick ass doctor by the way, Infectious Disease, only one in the surrounding area, ten years served in the Army. I gave him hell because his shoes needed to be polished... a little spit shine. Being a veteran myself, we get along well, he and my wife... well, not so well. So it is in the field of medicine.

@Bruce: Unfortunately residents (new doctors still in training) get paid like paupers, but in another 7 years I'll be getting near that level of income.  For now, it''s ramen noodles and kraft dinner.
