I love playing video games, really I do. I'm hooked on my Wii. I'm the kind of person that starts thinking they're pros at the games though. Like I started playing golf, right? Well, now I think I'm a real golfer.

I haven't played Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City yet. I feel like it might be too much for me. I like cutesy games like Super Mario Bros. and this feels like GTA is more like a commitment. I don't think I'm ready for it.

So here's the thing: I was thumbing through my virtual newspaper and found an interesting story about Sandra Day O'Connor. Ok, so lots of you are wondering, "And she would be?" Totally ok. She's someone that not everyone knows about (even though they should). She was the first FEMALE US Supreme Court justice. I have to admit, when I was younger, I had no clue who she was. I always seemed to confuse her with Susan Dey (L.A. Law anyone? Partridge Family?). I kept thinking, "The girl with the tambourine is now on the US Super Court?" When I realized my mistake, I felt like a moron.

So anyway, back to Sinead Day O'Conner (I know it's the wrong name but I like that), "Sandy" has unveiled a new video game she was involved with called: Our Courts. The video game will teach children how courts work.

First of all, I think the name needs more oomph. Something like "Death-Ray Court", "Courting DEADLY Justice".

Second of all, it needs a cute character...like a hedgehog...a plumber that never fixes anything...maybe a pikachu...something.

Third of all, it needs to be a lot more entertaining. Period.

O'Connor stated: "If we can capture just a little bit of that time to get them thinking about government and civic engagement rather than playing shoot-'em-up video games, that's a huge step in the right direction."

That's so true...but unless you can trick the kids into WANTING to play this game, I'm not sure if it's going to work. Take for example, one of my favorite TV shows, Law and Order (any of them). I learn about simple things of the law because I'm tricked into it with dramatic situations. I don't even know I'm learning. Now I know that the next time I get arrested, I "lawyer up"...THANKS FOR THE LESSON LAW AND ORDER!

So anyway, this is the world's dullest video game. Don't worry, you won't have to camp in line at a local GameStop...this one will be available FREE online...jeez, I wonder why?
