I hate MCDONALDS!!!! I went there yesterday for the first time in a few months because I didn't have any food in the house and I was in a hurry. I drive up the the order thing and see this amazing looking Southwest Chicken Sandwich. I was strong enough to order just the sandwich. No 76oz of cola or a bag of potatoes stuffed inside a piece of cardboard, Just this amazing juicy looking southwest chicken sandwich. I was so hungry that I ripped open the paper and tooka huge STICKY DRY BITE!! There was nothing on this chicken sandwich. I swear to god it was a bun, a pickle, and a dry piece of fried chicken breast. I almost choked. My teeth were covered in rubbery bun. I wish I would have purchased the 76oz of cola.

No butter, mayo, or spicy southwest sauce.......

Greg

I would make a smart ass comment to Greg, but he suffered enough with the sandwich.

Next up Mom, and a reaffirmation as to why she doesn't email more often.

Did you know there is no such word as lefted?
Mom

mom picked the wrong day to pick on me, and my response....

"Righted" isn't a word either yet everybody else uses it.

You can thank me later ;)


Update... It seems someone forgot to make it a link... and I know how lazy you damn dirty gamers are.

Pegasus revisited....

3 months of MAC Book Pro bliss and I have to say I'm not regretting my purchase one bit. Dual booting with Win XP and the MAC OS is nothing short of the best of both worlds. Granted I think my total time in Windows is something like 6 hours while not playing "Supreme Commander" other then that it is all Mac all the time. I would even go so far as to call the Mac my primary computer.

However to every "Ying" there is a "Yang" and the "Yang" in this case is my desktop. All 75 pounds of it. I've been mulling over the next iteration of "Yang" for a while and I know it won't be a iMac... I love my Mac Book but honestly I do use my desktop primarily for one thing.

Gaming.

While I can game on the Mac Book under Windows I do like that I have a desktop with a full size keyboard. And after a couple of hours you really begin to apperciate that full size keyboard.

And the fact that I have come home to a computer that says "failed cpu test" on boot twice in the last month tells me it's time to start really thinking about a new rig.

I have the case picked out... it's my usual ungodly huge case.

I'm having pain and consternation with other pieces parts and I now am formally soliciting input. Please note that this input will be throughly hashed through and then hashed through again with another party (you know who you are) before landing on a final configuration.

Here are some talking points...

- Dual Core 6750 vs Quad Core 6600.... the dual core has a faster front side bus and is more over-clockable then the quad core. The quad core is a quad core. Price diffrence is ~$75

- SLI.... It seems like a good idea if you actually do it. The kicker is when you strap together two mid range cards you still don't equal the current high end. And for the over all cost of the two mid range cards you can get a kick ass high end card. Also which platform Nvidia 650 or 680?

- Hybrid drives will be out soon if they aren't already. I'm not one to pick up on new technology very often but this one does seem like a winner.

Other considerations, the new chips from Intel and AMD will be out in the next couple of months. Is there enough reason to wait for those chips or utilize what is out there currently? (Personal thought, most of the new chips will be of the quad core and 1300mhz fsb variety and may very well warrant sitting tight).

I'm defiantly in hurry to build this rig as I'm happy with the MAC Book and my Wii (and since Metroid 3 comes out next week I know that is going to keep me busy).

Intersting....

He's not that stupid....

Return of Furbee...

I saw "Furbee" on TV this evening, so between that and the sudden rush of football games one can only assume that football season is on us yet again.

So it is now only a few weeks until the Cardinals march onto the field and school their opponet of the week in the ways of the bird... for the bird is the word.


Yes here is to the hopes of entire group of maybe twenty people that the Cardinals will be 8-8 this year.

Go Cardinals!

Freedom of Choice is what you've got...

Checking the old Google analytics for the blog the other night I found the following entry for properties of network visitors

I don't know which I should more worried about... that the "man" has read this 3 times in the last month or that 2 of the larger healthcare companies in North America are stalking me.

I'm probably on a no fly list now...

Oh no not me...

It's August....

I hate August...

I hate August more then I hate any other time of year.....

All of the good pod casts are on vacation and putting up repeats....

Geek Brief with Cali Lewis, Ask a Ninja, and Battlestar Galactica (granted it's been off line for a couple of months now and won't start until the 4 season picks up in the new year)

Comics are on "hiatus" damn you non-sequitor

Football is in the presason, the games aren't even that good. The first string of the Cardinals can beat up on the second string of the Steelers.

Computers die in August... that always costs me money.

I hate August.

Drool.....

Sports cars and IT pro's a dangerous combo

As seen @ DEF CON15

Where do I sign up and is it verizon compatible?
