Wow. I may have to finally get on board with this series. I've heard about it, but never got into PC sims like this. This could finally solve the dilemma of what I can do while my wife is insisting on watching America's Next Top Model, The Hills or whatever other crap she likes that simply makes me want to stab myself in the eye with a butter knife...
