Okay, now THIS is just sheer and utter GENIUS.

Create a character for each member of your family. Then create adventures ofr them based on their chores. Each chore they do gives them Gold and EP so they can improve their characters stats and become better in battle.

FRIGGIN' EVERQUEST/WORLD OF WARCRAFT/GUILDWARS IN YOUR EVERY-DAY LIFE!

[livejournal.com profile] khristle an I will have to sit down and create a ton of 'Adventures" to help me keep he apartment cleaner, as well as to remind her of her laundry duties :)

So far today I've completed The Dishes of DOOM!!!, but have yet to garner enough courage for The Bathroom of The Unclean.

This is a collection of "Wrong Music"... cover versions of songs that are just plain WRONG. The ox.net thingee didn't give me the option to re-title any of this stuff, so let me just tell you what you've got here:

The Ataris - Boys Of Summer is an excellent punkish cover of an 80's classic.

Frou Frou - Holding Out For A Hero is an R&B re-imagining of the classic tune from the Footloose Soundtrack. Kevin Bacon is turning in his grave - as are the adjoining 7 graves. And yes I know he's not dead.

Big & Rich - You Shook Me All Night Long is as wrong as wrong can be. The only way an AC/DC cover tune could be wronger is if it had been done as a polka.

Me First & The Gimme-Gimmie's - Annie's Song is the first of two John Denver punk rock covers by this band. These two songs were the inspiration for this list of music.

Unknown - Baby Got Back asks the musical question "What If Sir Mixalot had been white?"

Beseech - Gimme Gimme Gimme isn't that remarkable till you realize that it's a GOTH cover of an ABBA song. If I ever take up Professional Wrestling, THIS will be my Theme Song.

Unknown - Dream On is the prettiest version of an Aerosmith song you'll ever hear. Kinda makes me think of Liv Tyler taking the place of her dad.

Me First & The Gimme-Gimme's - Leaving On A Jet Plane, the second John Denver cover by this band.

The Dan Band - Total Eclipse of The Heart! I searched high and low for this friggin' alum and now I'm proud to share this with you! The ULTIMATE Fratboy Cover of a Chick-Song!
