As I was rocking out on my Aerosmith Guitar Hero this morning, I had the whole family sitting in the living room behind me watching as I went to school on a little Rag Doll.  I decided to experiment with the "hard" setting since I've pretty much mastered it on medium.  (I have five stars on all but two songs, and GOLD stars on four of the songs -- meaning I've hit every single note, not missing one.)

I didn't do so well on "hard", and I explained to Amy that a large part of the reason is that it incorporates the orange button at the bottom of the frets.  Since the green, red, yellow and blue buttons occupy my fingers, I have to slide my hand down to hit the orange notes, and I'm not well-practiced yet.

To this explanation Amy simply rejoined, "Too bad it's not a pink button.  You manage to hit that one every time."

Good one, Amy. And, apparently Simon deserves accolades, too.

I was fully prepared for some comment about how you should be very well practiced indeed at sliding up and down the shaft when its "hard." Leave it to Amy to make this all about her ;)

Funny, these comments never actually got mailed to me, so I'm seeing them a tad late. Sorry folks. And yes, Amy does excel at making it all about her. But that's OK. It quite often is.
