Wii Gold Box Day

For anyone that has a Wii console (currently sold out, once again), you'll want to check today's GoldBox and Lightning Deals at Amazon, as it's Wii Gold Box Day! There are already two deals up and there are new ones during the day, with the last to appear at 11:00 PM (EST) and every single one of them is on an Wii game.

One thing not on the sale that I hadn't noticed available before are these multi-colored Wii Controllers from Nintendo - much better solution than the colored skins (and they come with the motion plus add-on, for games that support the new accessory).

Walk It Out from Konami is the all-day deal at $19.98.

Free Book (Smashwords) - Tales of a Texas Boy

Tales of a Texas Boy ($0.99 Kindle), by Marva Dasef, is free at Smashwords. Deal expired.

Book Description
How do you handle a crazy jackass? Eddie knows. If you ask Eddie, he'll tell you pigs can fly and show you where to find real mammoth bones. Take his word for it when he tells you always to bet on the bear. These are things he learned while dreaming of becoming a cowboy in West Texas during the Depression. Through Eddie, the hero of "Tales of a Texas Boy," we find that growing up is less about maturity and more about roping your dreams. Hold on tight. It's a bumpy ride. A wonderful read for anyone who enjoys books like "Little House on the Prairie" or "Tom Sawyer." A great bit of nostalgia for seniors, too.
