edlib Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I dislike the Circuit City ad space around here. And why exactly would that be, Mr. Best Buy Company Man??? Took a 3+ hour walk today. Needed it. Also did some cleaning up around the house... though not as much as is really necessary. Downloaded that new Radiohead album today. Didn't pay anything for it. If I really like it, I'll purchase the CD when it comes out. I kind of think I'm not going a huge fan of it though. Haven't really liked anything of theirs since OK Computer. Wouldn't mind being pleasantly surprised in this case, though. However, the initial listen hasn't been promising. I do need a new album to get all excited over. It's been a long, long time since that has happened. Even the last Rush CD failed to get me all that interested... even though it's still the best thing I've listened to in a few years.

Cmdr. Cracken Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Actually... I'm not a dedicated company man. See, I'm Occassional/Seasonal. If they don't need my ass after January 1, I'm done. So, seeing that, I've put my self in front of various bars and restaurants out in Henrietta, near R.I.T. The pay will probably suck, but the tips will be good. Maybe.

edlib Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Awww... C'mon! Share the love, Crackles! Does the employee discount have a dollar limit? What if we just throw all our items in the cart with yours, and we'll cover you later? What would the discount on 12-thousand bucks of stuff come to anyway?

Rogue15 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 So far today has been good. Woke up a little late...i got my tracker in to the place and had them check it, it was the other o2 sensor, so they'll call me when the part they ordered for it comes in. Called this junk yard and they'll pay me $50 for my trashed plymouth and they'll pick it up this afternoon. my sister JUST erased the message from the other place i called so i have no way to get back in touch w/them...watch, 2 tow trucks will come for the car at the same time. fight fight fight!!! edit: well the guy came...and gave me $60 for it instead of $50! nice! called the other place and told them don't even bother coming over. Now i've got more room in the driveway...gotta figure out what i want to do with the truck now. It still drives...but its inspection sticker expired. -_- Was playing Halo 3 for a bit on Heroic. It's pretty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Relaxed day at work. (Well... for me, anyway. Looked like some other folks around me were on the verge of pulling their hair out. Oh well. Not a lot of sympathy here... I go through that enough myself.) Departmental party after work at the top of the Prudential Tower. Nice. Surprisingly low-key... but some very good food. Should have ate even more than I did. Didn't stay long, but hung out with co-workers for an hour or so, anyway. Feels like an early night again. Tomorrow should be pretty relaxed, as well. At least I hope so. Wednesday could be a bear. Hope not... but we'll see. Then 4 days off... IN A ROW!!! Woot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 My rifle is still sighted in...went to a range, on sunday morning, that my parents' landlords set up, and hit the bullseye at about 100 meters on the second shot. (first shot was far right...haven't fired in a while wasn't used to the recoil, second shot hit the bull's eye, and the third shot went a little bit above the bull's eye) Just watched a few episodes of 24 season 2. had nothing better to do. I work a 1-10 tomorrow, then i get wednesday off. love this schedule! took $20 out of that 60 and got some food for the fridge. I'm glad to have a nice vehicle again....I can't wait to go hunting next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmdr. Cracken Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Sorry, I'm seriously saving the Emp discount so if I am canned in January, I'm gonna get a whole S&%# load of stuff.... Though... a $9,756.23 dollar sale (Including all that extra crap... PSP, cables, install, ect) doesn't make them WANT to can me in January.

edlib Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Ah,.. so it's a dollar amount, not a percentage thing? (Like 15% off each purchase you make...) That's interesting. Good ta' know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Jones Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Okay, looks like someone is way to cool to make an appearance to this world. First the doc said he will come 17th of Novembre, then, 7 weeks ago, he said, "oh, he surely will come earlier, probably around the 8th". I think it has do to with the fact that we all caught some kind of flu and the doctor also confirmed that it is possible that the mother organism tries to recover from that first before it's going to pop off any spawnlings. However, it's all good with the child organism lol that sounds so alien-ish. So, I am waiting, waiting, waiting. Waiting. That said, I have two appointments with clients on Thursday and Friday in like 200 miles away from here, what means I cannot just leave work when the show begins. :/ In other news, my uncle decided to throw out a fridge for us since the one we have now falls apart and also has only as much space as a shoe box while he needs power comparable to the consumption of an average 90000 souls village. The one we have ordered now is somewhat bigger. 1,85 metres in height, 221 litres cooling space, additional 90 litres for the freezing unit. Only 255 KWh per year. Coming in on Wednesday. ^^;; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 The kid is already showing you all who calls the shots, huh? At least you know when the fridge delivery is going to take place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Jones Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Yeah, and somehow, in a strange way, that also gives me a slight feeling about when the big showdown is gonna kick in - the house will be left 5 mins before the fridge man rings the bell. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyan Farlander Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 On a totally unrelated note, I always imagine Ray Jones looking exactly like Roy Jones Jr., the boxer, due to the similarity in names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, yeah. I look exactly like this. I mean, my hair is longer, and middle blond, I've got brighter skin, and blue eyes. But the rest.. yeah. See?

Rogue Nine Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 Ray Ray sort of resembles that jumpy blonde French acrobat henchman from Die Hard 4. The one that got meat grinder'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Jones Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 You know, that reminds me how I did manage not to watch Die Hard 4 yet. However, in that same context I also do not hesitate to say that some French girl in fact kinda meat grinder'd me once. Fascinating technique I'd like to add.
