Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 yeah...they'll just return them anyway. got a d8 set up tomorrow.
edlib Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 2 things to do this week: 1. - Get back to IKEA and buy a couple more boxes of tiles as spares, and some flashing to use as trim around the walls to cover rough spots. 2. - Get to Circuit City and see if I can't get a decent HD-TV for the cellar... and maybe a DVD player with HDMI out.
Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 yay for hdtvssssss!!!1111 watched 24. i love that show. i also watched clone wars...one episode of it. can't really get all 'omg' about it cause i've missed like 10-12 episodes already. i'll get the box set on dvd. the girl seems kind of cool, at least what i could tell from the 5 minute phone conversation. My friends think i'm insane for letting my one friend set me up like that. I don't care, cause i got nothing to lose. From what my coworker said, she's a little older than me, has her own place too. so that's definitely a plus.
Cmdr. Cracken Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Ed: Good luck! Most of thier TV selection will be display models.
Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 walmart is running out of tvs as well. don't buy vizio, we get alot of returns on them.
edlib Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Yeah... but if the price is right, just about anything would be an improvement over moving the 100+ lbs lo-def CRT TV I was going to set up down there.
Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 get a phillips or a samsung. sanyo is also a good brand.
K_Kinnison Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 My birthday is coming up this sunday. So far I have invited 6 people and none have replied back. Loserville = me
Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 mine's on wednesday. day after inauguration. can't believe i'll be 25. i'm freakin young.
Kuuki Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 no call for my last job interview, luckily i got another one on wednesday
Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 good luck, scar!. I just played some Fable II....decided to marry the jeweler my character kept screwing....success on having a baby on the 1st marital sex. the baby is evil. it loves when i do the 'evil laugh' expression. think when it grows up i'll show it the true nature of the dark side by sacrificing it to the temple of shadows......nah...i couldn't do that. or could i???? I was overly generous to my family and put a daily allowance of....2000 gold. this made the wife VERY HAPPY, as her expectation was like 175 gold. haha. she didn't appreciate my character flirting with another woman, and she threatened to leave me. i decided to be nice and give her some chocolate...lol i'm gonna get some sleep...gonna wake up early and clean out my car.
Keyan Farlander Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Things are crazy down here near D.C. because of the inauguration. Lots of people took off work to go see it, and they are putting it up on the big projector in the media room for us to watch at work. Do I care? Absolutely not.
edlib Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 They are doing the same here. I actually do care this time,.. but I figure I can catch all the highlights on the news for a month or 2 to come. I honestly don't care to ever hear which Inauguration was warmest or coldest ever again in my lifetime, however. God bless the 24-hour news cycle.
Rogue15 Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 it's annoying...i wish they'd just show it WITHOUT THE COMMENTARY. it's giving me a headache. gotta work 12:30-8 tonight. then i'm off wednesday and thursday. meeting the girl on my lunch break for coffee. might hold off on going out til one of my days off when places are open. thursday is looking good for that....an all-day celebration. then again....
K_Kinnison Posted January 20, 2009 Author Posted January 20, 2009 im at work with a rare opportunity to use the intertubes. Almost half of the people in the warehouse took off today or left early (5 people) because we started the day with 8 outbounds (~40,000 lbs. Truck loads), and 3 inbound loads. Now with 9 working hours left today. we are waiting for 4 outbounds and one inbound. 3 of the outbounds are not going to show up til after 6pm. bored bored bored I just read the inaguration speech by Obama... really nice speech... likely one of the best. and i would like to say. NAH-NAH NAH NAH NAH-NAH NAH NAH HEY-EY-EY GOOD BYE!
Keyan Farlander Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Now that that's over with, how long before everyone realizes that Obama will change absolutely nothing (for the better) and once again resume hating the government and America in general? I give it less than a year.
Zargon Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 no kidding. he can write a decent sounding speech and speak eloquently while crushing constitutional rights and printing money we dont have. all that does is make him a better speaker than bush.........
edlib Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 All we can do is wait and see. Hopefully you guys will turn out to be pleasantly surprised.
Rogue15 Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 yeah...i'm glad we got a new president, but doubtful of the changes he promises. went on my date at work today haha. she's pretty hot. i didn't ask how old she was, but thinking late 20's, early 30s. she has a masters degree in counseling and is a certified yoga instructor. got another date w/her on thursday. i'll have to get a pic of her somehow for all you 'pics or it didnt happen' peoples. nice way to start off year 25.
K_Kinnison Posted January 21, 2009 Author Posted January 21, 2009 how about we count the chickens before they hatch folks I doubt the new president could do worse then the last one
Rogue15 Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 idk for some reason seeing the capital building like that gave me images from EndWar...when i was playing as the Russian Federation.....im just sick in the head lol
Cmdr. Cracken Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 I'm waiting to see how he does. yes, his plan does include raising the national debt into the multi trilion dollar range. But Roosevelt did something similar and also retooled the United States for a war time economy. This guy has to do something similar but instead of war production has to move us to new industries that can carry us forward into the 21st century, something that OTHER administrations SHOULD HAVE DONE, but never did due to a complete lack of foresight, special interest groups, and preoccupation with other issues.
edlib Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 Yesterday: Dull day at work,.. though I did catch up on a lot of paperwork that's needed to be done for a long while. Fell asleep early last night. Why is it that I have less energy and am more exhausted after some time off? Isn't supposed to be the other way around?
