George is the name of my battle rabbit in a new Facebook application game, “Pets.” On Friday, I enlisted in the war against a brood of giant scorpions, ants, spiders and praying mantids. Productivity immediately went down to 50% as I alternated between attacking insects and feeding my rabbit back to full strength. Although I spent more time Saturday battling real insects while hiking in the woods with the boys, I have had enough exposure to James Lin’s virtual army to confirm that I was write to chase away all those computer games in the early 1990s. Now working my way up to level fifteen, I can only imagine how little of my life would be my own if I substituted Pets with World of Warcraft.
