The Doctor Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I opened some presents this morning, and I did get the Trombone stand and Doctor Who DVDs, as well as a Toblerone Bar, a Dutch Chocolate in the shape of a G (my first initial), a Chocolate Orange, a Star Trek Calendar, and a Trombone Maintenance Kit. I'm going to my grandparents' house for dinner tonight, so I'll know more late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 My "new sound card" turned out to be a sweathirt for sledding (it's been about 50 degrees lately) A small toolkit for working on my PC (doesn't help without something to put in there XP) A tapemeasure, a torpedo level, a shiny mech pencil, and a hershey's kiss the size of a baseball (shuggashuggashuggashuggashugga:D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Smaug Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 [quote name=REDJOHNNYMIKE @Smaug, BFII is sweet, did you get it for PC or XBOX? QUOTE] Since i am a great Nintendo fan i have no XBOX Got it on PC. Beside that-why don't you quote?You always pick @..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I picked that up here;) I use it because it cleans up my posts, and since I'm usually on only at night I have less posts for more responses, using @ directly responds to certain individuals without confusion, I don't always do it though, it's just a quirk resulting from forum radiation:D So you're getting it for PC, I've got PC too and it's excellent:) So why don't you like XBOX games? With 360 out now X1 isn't hard to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Smaug Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 So you're getting it for PC, I've got PC too and it's excellent:) So why don't you like XBOX games? With 360 out now X1 isn't hard to get. I'm gonna install it tommorow. Sigh, when the nintendo revolution will come out it will be much better as the xbox 360. And i don't like xbox and ps because every-one wants to get an xbox or ps. I stick to the good old nintendo and to me still the best console. Now back to the thread..

Jeff Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I got a 200gb hard drive along with World of Warcraft, Guild Wars, Labrynth of Evil book, Hitchhiker's Guide the the Galaxy (movie not book), Jerry Seinfeld standup DVD & Seinfeld Season 5 dvds, a visual basic game programming book & cd, and some clothes. I'm disappointed I can't use the hard drive yet because it's a SETA type drive so it has different cables than normal motherboards use, and it didn't come with any cables and all the computer stores were closed But I'm still happy I got it, it far outweighs my current 40 gb drive.

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 What are you going to do with 2 mmorpgs, so long, it's been nice knowing you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Well I haven't played any computer games for a while, or new ones at least, and there aren't too many others out there that I want to try besides Quake IV, F.E.A.R., and I have Myst V but haven't played it yet, so I hope these will give me something to do for a while Besides they both look amazing. The only mmo I've played before these is Galaxies so obviously anything will be better than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Well I'll be on vacation for a week starting tomorrow, so I'll at least have another week with you bunch of losers before the addiction will start But I think I'll still be on here frequently, probably just not for as long periods of time that I normally am.

Astrotoy7 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 But you're a moderator, don't the Admins put an explosive collar on you:D There's always a few local mods in each area(this has 7 for example - the highest in LF I believe...) Its pretty easy to cover for our fellow comrades when work/vacation calls. Plus, s-mods are always hangin around to clean up things they may have missed. It's a good system....the only problem is the updated nude resume those creepy admins require us to send in each financial year @Moeller...a little man with a little girl as his avvie should watch who he calls a loser lolz to you !

Rogue Nine Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Ah, those resumes are only for the female moderators. At least the resumes I request.

REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Yeah, I thought NGblack would be cool to, but the control sucked, it wasn't very responsive and the attacks took to long to be any fun. *starts working out in preparation for inevitable moderatorship* XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Doctor Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 I got a new power bar this morning from my parents - a gift they forgot to get from the back of the tree last night. It's anti-surge, so my computer won't go down if there's a power surge. It also has 2 phone jacks, an ethernet port, and even a connection for a TV and sattelite/cable box. THE ULTIMATE POWER BAR HAS COME!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
