Man, I really was hoping to have had a nice shiny new Alienware laptop to speak to my faithful readers. Alas, it was not meant to be. After patiently awaiting FedEx to figure out where my laptop was…(editors note: FedEx Employees…not always the brightest bulbs….) I opened up the trendy Alienware box to discover a nice shiny notebook…that was NOT what I ordered. In fact, it was what someone else ordered. Turns out, somebody else got my laptop and I got his!
<sigh>
At any rate, my Conspiracy Blue Area-51m is still somewhere in Miami, awaiting the final go-ahead (again) for Alienware to ship it to me. I’ve already called and yelled, and emailed and yelled, and called and yelled again, but I guess I can’t really give a thumbs up or down until I actually have the damn thing. They have offered me some Amazon.com bucks for my troubles, which I can’t decide if I should spend on Books or Video Games. (Raven of course thinks I should buy a certain DVD, but we shall see….)
MultiMayhem X is this Saturday. On the one hand, I’m excited to go since I haven’t been to a good LAN Party in some time….however, Ye Olde PIII 500 may not be quite up to snuff anymore. Oh well, I’ll have my fancy-shmancy notebook next time….I hope…..

Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the Internet….
Hey there! How’s it going? I hope that I will be able to catch my breath soon. I just found out that I managed to test out of my Monday night class! Hopefully that will be the extra time I need to resume a moderately normal life.
More updates later…for now, look at some pictures from Raven’s Golden Birthday Party!

Hmm….Well, I certainly do not have a disco, so I guess it’s the truth! (link unceremoniously ganked from picklejuice)
Hey everybody! I am a busy busy guy. I’m almost done with my first quarter and I have 3 finals and 2 final projects due next week for 4 different classes! And, of course, I’ll be going out of town this weekend…just in case that was all too easy.
Hey, while on the subject of links, check out Lost in Translation for more wacky fun. It translates English to French and then back into English and then into German and then back into English and then into …. well… just go try it!
The morning of the ice-slides is tired and underneath ugliness it
changes it in the skin, the one that thought about a type I, inside
like of this mine of the reason 1 week, that I sleep!
I need somebody (Help)
not just anybody (Help)
You know I need somone (HELP!)
Right. So. Umm. I think I need a nap. I think I need a long nap. In fact, I think a coma is in order at this point. I’d like to point out that I’m just not a kid anymore. Of course, I was a kid when this sign must have been posted. According to 911dispatch, it was apparently December of 1982 when 911 was introduced in Minneapolis/St.Paul. This sign has been conspicuously left above the drinking fountain of the company I am contracted to for the rest of the month. Gotta love the cutting edge…
And hey, while you’re here…the link and text are from MoveOn.org:
