  1. Mooney's Bay computer provided me with a great system in 2000 which lasted me until this year. They put everything I wanted in there (wanted a computer tweeked for recording music)... nice case, and never had any problems, until it started crumbling under the pressure of being 8 years old. The cost seemed very reasonable. I don't know how good they are for peripherals... but I imagine they are stocked fairly well with the common bits.

  2. I finally got into this... and seasons 1-4 were awesome! Probably got through all of it in a month! I can't wait to see season 5... anyone know when it's going to start?!

    Maybe season 4 was weak compared to the other 3... but it was still pretty good. I don't know why people complain so much around here! I think it sets the table pretty good for season 5... and no doubt if and when they ever wrap it up... it going to go like fire crackers.

  3. He barley filled the stands at the Ricoh Coliseum last time he was in town. A little annoying considering he was touring with the best stage show at the time.

    Table percussion AND puppets. Such a great artist...

    I can't wait until people come and start ripping up his scientology background... or is that too 2006?! :P

  4. It's official! After some tough negotiating, which only means I save some coin now, so I can dump it into the house as soon as I move in, it has been completed.

    Let the games begin!!!

    Thanks everyone for all your well wishing, or not wishing me any specific harm!

  5. I fucking detest the Olympics, that orgy of faux-nationalism designed to sell more Big Macs and Cokes.

    But I'm also a hypocrite because I love international hockey and will be fully enthralled by that every 4 years despite my Olympic hate.

    I agree with the whole nationalism thing, and the sponsorships that are shoved down your neck the whole games. And I do like watching international hockey... but it's more because there's a much smaller talent pool to draw from so the depth of the teams is much greater... that and you get to see people who don't normally play together on the same team, and it helps to make sense of real-time abilities in contrast to play in the NHL.

    So with that being said... the olympics are still interesting for me... kind of like sitcoms... if I got time to watch the tube... I'll watch, and I can get caught up in the individual action... but I don't have to watch.

    I saw part of the opening ceremonies. I thought they were very impressive. Looked like they had 50,000 performers.

  6. In my eyes

    Indisposed

    In disguise

    As no one knows

    Hides the face

    Lies the snake

    The bun

    In my disgrace

    Boiling heat

    Summer stench

    neath the black

    The sky looks dead

    Call my name

    Through the cream

    And Ill hear you

    Scream again

    Cinnabon

    Wont you come

    And wash away the rain

    Cinnabon

    Wont you come

    Wont you come

    Stuttering

    Cold and damp

    Steal the warm wind

    Tired friend

    Times are gone

    For honest men

    And sometimes

    Far too long

    For snakes

    In my shoes

    A walking sleep

    And my youth

    I pray to keep

    Heaven send

    Hell away

    No one sings

    Like you

    Anymore

    Hang my head

    Drown my fear

    Till you all just

    Disappear

  7. There's this new Febreeze TV commercial I saw which took place on a greyhound like bus. It's like a sticky wall freshener... and the woman puts it on the window and everyone gets all happy... they pan back through the aisle and zoom past the bus driver, and they're all happy! mmmm smells...

    But the first thing I thought when I saw it on the bus was: Awkward...

    Never seen it before too, which I thought was odd... can't remember the channel, it was probably showcase...

    Febreeze is probably aware of the principles brought forward by this book:

  8. You know who else was nationalist?: Hitler.

    What do you expect from a league that at one point had 8 teams... two with the same name. There's some neat stuff in the CFL, cause it is football (Like Moon, Flutie, Gizmo, Pinball), but it is kind of dull to watch on TV.
