I just took over the XWA Seti@Home team. About 4 months ago, I accidentally clicked something that questioned the leader's activity... Since he didn't respond in those 4 months, it automaticlly transferred ownership to me.

 

Wheeee!

I'm scared now. The thought of you in charge of anything... ;):p

 

Who is still in the team these days anyhow? Just me, you, and Mr. Jones, right?

 

I do have a few additional comps crunchin' for me these days though... not just my single geriatric main PC. Got a few machines at work too.

 

 

Well, got my car inspected. (Passed.) Got a nice winter coat (not crazy about the colors... but it has enough pockets to suit me and should be pretty warm (it's a Columbia.) A couple of nice fleece pull-overs that were on super-clearance sale as well.

 

Had lunch at Olive Garden ("...but he left his wallet at the grocery store!")

seti@home... i haven't run hat thing in years. I don't even have it on my computer anymore... wow.

 

Gotta do one more overnight, then i have the weekend off. which will be nice.

 

That and the manager's outing is sunday, which equates to free food. :D

 

BBQ potato chips are godly.

 

Gunner: Not much man, moved out of the 'rents house. On my own finally. :D

i just got a rejection letter from a dental school that i really thought i had a good chance of getting into. this is quite disappointing and a bad omen for my remaining 3 schools.

Ooh... bummer. Sorry to hear that, man.

 

Good luck. I'm sure it will work out. You've always struck me as being pretty serious about that kind of stuff.

 

We're all pullin' for you! (Pun clearly intended.) :)

Life is a bitter pill sometimes...

 

Well, we still have about a week left in the month, and we are already approaching the 200-post mark. Cool. If this trend continues we will totally kick the ass of the "Redux" thread. We'll break... uhhh... let's see, carry the one... um, 2400 posts for the year, maybe, I think? Well... That would rawk!

So,.. KEEP IT UP BOYS!

 

And to help you "keep it up": Double doses of Viagra and Cialis for all! Except for you, Ray... you've already had quite enough! Put the goddamn bowl down, man! Those things aren't M&Ms! :p

Remember fellas: If you have an erection that lasts more than 4 hours, call a doctor. Or a phone sex line. And a prostitute, the Guinness Book people, and all your buddies to brag. :dozey:

 

:joy:

 

On second thought... if we go that route, you'll all be too busy with... other activities... to post. So ignore all that, and just keep posting.

Ed, you are a twisted individual.

 

Overnight went well. did 900 in sales, which is fair.

 

Our labor percent still sucks ass though. >.<

 

Not alot on the slate today. I don't know what I'm gonna do with my free time.

anybody notice the forum links at the bottom of the threads now? thanks to yours truly, you don't have to scroll up to the top of the page to click the link back to the forum you're in.

Work was easy yesterday. Everything went well. A good way to start the year.

 

Going decaf again today. Haven't slept well the last couple of nights, and could use extra rest.

 

Still have a ton of chores to get through. We'll see how far I get. Place yer' bets now... :rolleyes:

 

I might also head out at some point today with the sole intention of buying some CDs or something. I've been kind of bored with my music lately. I hate paying full price for CDs, though... but my favorite used CD place around here went out of business a while ago... which probably has a lot to do with the fact that I haven't really bought any music in a while.

Posted

Uhhh... far out?

Who you gonna call? Transformers!

 

Just woke up. No caffeine = no chores getting done, it appears.

 

Didn't think I was that deep into my addiction again. Yawn.

Posted

caffine is the nectar of the gods. next to alcohol.

 

Went to my parents, picked up some pots, pans, sheets, and some chips.

 

Then to the managers dinner, whih was free food on the store. can't argue that!

 

reinstalling World of Warcraft too. That'll help pass the time. :D

Watched the "Unforgiven" and "Strange Brew" DVDs I picked up last week, back-to-back. Both still great.

Ordered a pizza and a salad.

 

Didn't watch the playoff game... just wasn't in the mood. I guess they (the Patriots, that is...) lost. Oh well. Haven't been following them all that much this year. So I guess I don't feel all that bad about missing the game, then.

 

Should get to bed. Back to work in the morning, and I've got to get the trash out early.

Shouldn't have any problem getting back to sleep, though... without stimulants I'm pretty useless.

Well, I had a good birthday.

 

My parents got me a mini digital video recorder, it can record up to 30 minutes, and it has a USB connection right on it, so it's pretty cool. Chilled out at their place for most of the day, watching tv. Then my dad and I went to go check on my sister's car after she got out of work, the check engine light is coming on again....not cool, so we headed back to parents' house and watched the rest of the chicago and new orleans game then went back home. My sister got me Star Fox Command and 'The Ringer' dvd. SFC is tough. I don't remember star fox on super nintendo being that hard, it's nice that there's a strategic element to the game though.

 

I'm thinking of walking or running another 2 miler tomorrow morning, but if it's raining I'll probably cancel that.

 

I think I made a healthy food move the other day by buying a 24 pack of water instead of two 2 liters of soda, and pretzels instead of chips?

Viagra has changed my life. Before Viagra I was a slave to frequent, meaningless, fast and random sex, with women I didn't even knew before. But now, with Viagra, I am able to touch pure freedom. Recently, I could even manage to have no erection for almost 2 hours. Thanks, Viagra!

I'm glad to see that no matter how hard everyone may try, a part of RL will always remain here at XWA.Net.

You bet!

But you could say the exact same thing about an intestinal parasite, too... :dozey:

:p

:joy:

How've you been?

*Looks around*

Are there cameras rolling? :confused:

Quite the endorsement, there Ray. The first thing that I can think of that you and Bob Dole could possibly have in common.

i wonder if rosie would be upset if I told you people where it is that she vanished off to

Most likely... but you are going to go ahead and do it anyway, aren't you? ;)

 

You could just give hints and we could all try to guess. That way you aren't actually guilty of telling us outright. The winner can get a prize.

as long as you don't give out specifics where people can contact her, directly (email) or indirectly (like a PM through another forum), i'd say talk your head off.
