As a big fan of the Legend of Zelda franchise, I know that whenever Nintendo wants to celebrate one of the releases, something always turns into gold. The original Nintendo had the gold cartridge, Gameboy had the gold handheld GameBoy, N64 had the gold console with a gold controller. So it would only be right to celebrate 25 years by bringing out the gold.

As part of the 25th Anniversary of Legend of Zelda, Nintendo will be showing their celebration by releasing “Skyward Sword” with a special bundle pack. On November 20, along with the game, you could also get a gold Wii controller and a Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony Concert music CD.

For $69.99, the 25th Anniversary bundle can be yours. If all you want is the game, it will be just $49.99. Personally, I might have to go the extra $20. You can also check out Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary website, and check out some the cool features.

Before I get down into the show I wanted to again mention how happy I am for my good friends Jimmy and Cathy. As they start their life together I wish them nothing but the best the world has to offer, but know that they already found that in each other.

Today’s show is all about things that make me happy, not really a few of my favorite things but definitely a stream of consciousness show pulled together from stories which struck my fancy, and intrigued me to know more. Sometimes its simply a headline, other times the whole concept spoke to me on some level. I really enjoy putting shows together like this so hopefully that comes through in the final take.

So I ask you to come with me on this fun little adventure as we stroll through he gardens of tech jokes and the glades of  caffeinated dreams. A bit flowery of a description but hey its springtime.
