ZBomber Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 Just got new intertubes and I think I'm in love. Did you get your old ones tied?
leXX Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 ^ Speaking of which, hubby bought me an early birthday present and upgraded my iPhone to a new 32GB 3GS, which arrived yesterday. Got quite a few new CD's, the best of which are...
Black Knight of Keno Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Finished up my "summer job" last Friday. First had to do the necessary bodywork(mainly sanding the old paintjob off), and removed any stickers on the bike. Then followed with a fresh black paintjob, taped up the flames and painted those with a small airbrush for a nice finish. Corrected any mishaps on the paintjob, laquered and assembled. The owner took it off my hands last Friday and gave me a wad of well-needed cash. Pictures below:
Boba Rhett Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Sweet flamejob, Keno! Forgot to post this over here, I grabbed this 32" HDTV off of Craigslist for a song. It wasn't working right but a reflow of the joints on the power regulation board and it's been going strong ever since. Also, I got another 360 Pro with 2 games off of craigslist for 120 and also one missing the dvd drive for 40.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Bought tickets to see these guys. Killswitch Engage In Flames Protest The Hero As well as DragonForce and Sonata Arctica later that week.
BongoBob Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Very good thing: I finally, somehow, someway, beat Jordan on Expert on GHII on the 360. This was the only song in any Guitar Hero game that I hadn't been able to beat. F***. Yes.

jon_hill987 Posted July 4, 2009 Posted July 4, 2009 Pre-Purchased. Has anyone seen the movie TRON?[/Homer Simpson]
Jeff Posted July 4, 2009 Posted July 4, 2009 Also picked up the headphones with mic and remote on them. If anyone is in the market for an iPod Touch (1st gen) shoot me a message, this one is replacing my old one so I want to unload that. It still works perfectly, I just needed more storage and wanted to be able to make skype calls.
Pho3nix Posted July 4, 2009 Posted July 4, 2009 Fine choice there, Moeller. I'm gonna wait for the 3rd gen iTouch though before I buy a new one. /shameless copy from TwilightLynk*
Darth Avlectus Posted July 5, 2009 Posted July 5, 2009 I got this recently as a belated B-day gift: Show spoiler (hidden content - requires Javascript to show) Obviously worth the wait. Nuff Said. Actually, while bulky, CRT monitors are pretty nice, in terms of image quality, that is . . . Or when they break beyond repair, their components are actually pretty sweet--'cept for the broken stuff of course. I found a power transistor that normally costs $20 that way.
EnderWiggin Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 Enough said. I won't be able to use it for a few months, as it's my first part bought and I'm buying slowly as things go on sale, but.... at least I picked it up for $199.99 - a savings of $70 if I would have bought it from Newegg. _EW_
TiE23 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 A 30-40 year-old Pachinko Machine. Red Faction Guerrilla (got it on sale) Prototype (got it a few weeks ago) And a nice 62" tripod.
Samnmax221 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 A 30-40 year-old Pachinko Machine. You'd better be starting an illegal gambling den with that.
MrWally Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Prototype (got it a few weeks ago) And a nice 62" tripod. Just got that as well. Fantastic game so far, actually. Really in depth story and character development, it seems. Also: What kind of tripod? Pics?
TiE23 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 You'd better be starting an illegal gambling den with that. Well, with the way it's now sitting in my garage now it's almost in a gambling den already. Also, writing a summary of a book as your reading it makes for a lot of typing... 171 pages into a 970 page book = 15 pages / 9000+ words of summary I'm writing it as an annotation really.
jon_hill987 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Core i7 I won't be able to use it for a few months, as it's my first part bought and I'm buying slowly as things go on sale, but.... at least I picked it up for $199.99 - a savings of $70 if I would have bought it from Newegg But in a month or two it could drop $70 couldn't it? rendering your saving useless. I never buy PC parts until I need them, even if they are on sale.
EnderWiggin Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 But in a month or two it could drop $70 couldn't it? rendering your saving useless. I never buy PC parts until I need them, even if they are on sale. Nah, the price isn't supposed to drop, because the i5 is supposed to become the mainstream processor. And even if it does drop $70 (extremely unlikely) - then it would be the same as buying it now. Thus, I lose nothing by buying now. _EW_
DarthAve Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Well, with the way it's now sitting in my garage now it's almost in a gambling den already.

I feel as if I'm in a similar boat as you. I have to read and journal "The Fountainhead" for my English Class. I'm on the third chapter of part 1, and I have two entire pieces of paper filled with notes... after about 15 pages... ~headsmack~

Heh... but this isn't for a class... I'm just doing it for ****s and giggles. But then again, the Wikipedia page for the book has no summary at all, so I may put a shortened version on there and link to the full annotation separately. I'm basically creating a "I don't wanna read all 970 pages, how about 60 pages instead?" version of the book. Why am I doing this?...

Oh, wait. Current Game: BioShock
