The Tanooki’s Daily Recap – December 14, 2007

071214recap.jpg

‘Tis the season, right? It looks like Toad won’t be having a merry Christmas this year, thanks to Becky. Way to go. Nah, I’m just kidding. Matt and Becky put a ton of talent into making today’s festive creation, and I can’t wait to see what other crafts the Nintendo community out there can put together leading up to the holidays.

Today was an exciting day, as it seems that the entire staff is supposedly now on an easier schedule. That means you should be seeing more action on these pages over the next few weeks, at least until Joey leaves for the Rose Bowl. Who knows, maybe we’ll get the staff together and do some group projects…

Anyway, today’s articles are linked below. Have at it, since I know we were posting a little quickly throughout the day – too quick for you to enjoy at the time.
