The American word for a kiddie fiddler - Pedophile - in latin literally means a benign foot fetishist (and hence pedo- is feet and we have pedometer).

Just like what Mark asked, I would like to know if the "activity meters" can work without constantly being connected with the DS, because this game would be really useful for me to use when I walk home from school, but I already carry around a cell phone and an iPod; I don't want to have to take the DS with me too. Sorry for rambling on, but do you know if I can use the "activity meter" and then sync it up with the DS when I get home? Thanks.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[[bLeEd_BlAqK]]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 25th 2009 10:23AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
