Random bits and bytes, championship edition

# Disney is reportedly going to purchase Marvel Comics for about $4 billion. Does this mean we’re going to start seeing a lighter-and-softer Incredible Hulk soon? Or maybe a stab at a Kingdom Hearts-style crossover: Marvel vs. Disney vs. Square Enix?

The Paper Ends with Professor Layton

Yeah, I’m ready for the weekend, and it looks like my Nintendo DS and Wii are going to get quite the workout. I’m working my way through Professor Layton and the Curious Village…I’ve only finished the second chapter, but these puzzles in the game don’t seem too hard. The only one I’ve had to cheat so far was with the “fox and chicks” puzzle. That one gets me every time. The “download-a-day” puzzles are a bit harder…I’ve only been able to solve four out of ten of those so far, and the hints you get for those are kinda sparse.
