The base game runs around $40.00 or so, as I recall. Best $40.00 I ever spent. Of course, I had to have all the expansions, stuff packs, and game guides, too; you don't want to know the total cost thus far. My accountant thinks I've lost my mind. He's probably right.

For those interested, the next Expansion Pack will be titled Bon Voyage, and it will allow Sims to take a vacation and get away from the daily grind of life for a few days. The vacation destinations include a camping trip, so at some point in the future there may be pics of Mr. Herriman annoying a bear.

Speaking of Mr. Herriman...

Foster's Valley: Genius At Work

Mr. Herriman continues work on his autobiography:



He finished the book about an hour later, titled it I Work For Carrots, and sold it for a rather nice sum. Note the gold star floating over his head; when that appears in the game, it means the Sim has reached level 10 in whatever skill he happens to be using at the time, and in Mr. Herriman's case the skill was Creativity. He was immensely pleased with himself about that, and with the fact that his book was selling very well, and at lunch he made sure that everybody knew about it:



Lunch was chili, courtesy of Frankie, who is approaching level 10 in Cooking skill. That's Sailor Mars sitting across from Frankie; she came home with Eduardo from school that day. He's taken quite a liking to her, which is kind of weird, as Eduardo is shy and very nice, while Sailor Mars is a major... well, she's not shy. Anyway, Mr. Herriman informed everyone that since he had conquered the literary world, he would now turn his attention to his easel and paints and produce a masterpiece on canvas as well. The general consensus at the table was, "Yeah, Mr. Herriman, whatever you say." Undaunted, while Eduardo and Sailor Mars played pool, Mr. Herriman set out to paint a masterpiece:



And, as the rest of the photos show, he succeeded:











The finished painting now hangs on the wall of the upstairs living room.

A special thanks to Kageri, who created the original classic, viewable elsewhere on the Forum and at DeviantART.
