Homefield Advantage ment something in Steeler territory. Cold Weather and the Terrible Towels did there job.

Show some humility sometime Rivers, and I may be sympathetic.

***Rogue Nine*** · 01-11-2009, 08:13 PM

ha ha, stupid Giants can't win for shiz no mo. I'm happy and fulfilled NFL-wise. A NY team isn't going to the big game and neither are the Pats.

also Crackface why haven't you added me on Xbawks Live yet

Kuuki · 01-11-2009, 10:47 PM

cus you're a bastard niner :P

anywho, just saw Valkyre with Jango Clone and SuicideXWing

good movie, wanted to get in touch with cracky for an invite

YOUR PHONE WAS OFF! XP

Rogue15 · 01-11-2009, 11:39 PM

gonna go see that movie on wednesday.

my computer is failing me. i don't know why, i'm sure it's the video card's way of saying 'SCREW YOU' -_-

and i already subscribed to swg. how annoying.

**Cmdr. Cracken** · 01-11-2009, 11:43 PM

because i'm on vacation and I didn't want work to bother me about the meeting that I was supposed to go to but my supervisor said I didn't have to.

Rogue15 · 01-11-2009, 11:45 PM

you gave them....your cell number?!!! bad mistake.

**Cmdr. Cracken** · 01-12-2009, 12:03 AM

it's my ONLY phone number

Kuuki · 01-12-2009, 12:25 AM

i see how it is. leaving everyone out in the dark when we could've had a movie watching experience with the great Crackensama...

Rogue15 · 01-12-2009, 02:42 AM

so, if you change your number, what are they gonna do, fire you?

I got sick of my computer constant freezing when trying to access anything with video.EAW froze on me, SWG froze 20 minutes remaining on dload. so i said screw it, played a few minutes on FFIII DS, tv became free, so i played a little Lost Odyssey, then decided to put Resident Evil Extinction in. that was pretty good. the chick is damn hot.

i have work 12-8/9 tomorrow. yay.

might stop in at radio shack and see wth they got to offer me as far as employment. i think it would come as a conflict of interest or something and walmart would get involved and raise hell over it if i put a 2 weeks notice and they found i went and worked for a competitor across the street.

then again...i been working at walmart for over 3 years, get a profit sharing incentive, 2 weeks vacation time a year, decent pay, people i work with aren't too bad. i dunno. from what i hear, the boss at radio shack would hire me on my friend's recommendation alone. trying to weigh the pros and cons of it....i should just say screw it and do it.

or just toss a coin and go about it that way.

edlib · 01-12-2009, 04:17 AM

Got one part of the cellar floor tiled yesterday.

Went pretty quick, and is mostly easy. Haven't tried cutting any of the tiles to fit odd spaces yet. That will be a real test.

I'll get pictures up later.

Work starts at 8 this morning. Ugh.

I don't have to be in that early... but I promised I'd get there as early as I could.

Rogue15 · 01-12-2009, 11:08 AM

computer continually freezes on me.

i get the 'no signal' on the monitor after everything locks up. rice crispy sounds coming from the speakers prior to the lockup. i've reseated the video card. this reminds me when the other dell was about to die. except it would at least have the courtesy to restart on its own. this one requires holding the power button until it shuts down. -_- i can't do much of anything that requires hard drive activity. so it could be 2 things. i tried hooking my acer back up, but same thing as before...spinning fans, no POST or any beeps.

**Cmdr. Cracken** · 01-12-2009, 12:04 PM

It's my only phone number. Since I need to be in contact with work when i'm not on vacation, they need it.
Ce'lavie

Zargon · 01-12-2009, 01:21 PM

same here, work has my cell.

I get paid when they call me and I am off work anyways

my OS drive and my storage drive gave me SMART errors yesterday, so I have spent ALOT of money in the last 24 hours....

*GUNNER* · 01-12-2009, 01:28 PM

And it's another Monday already. Nothing new to report. Same old crap.

edlib · 01-12-2009, 08:31 PM

Blah day.

Really tired now.

Sleep... I need sleep...

Rogue15 · 01-12-2009, 10:15 PM

i decided to click that shielded exclamation point that's been sitting on my taskbar for over a year now. it's supposed to update the system or something. maybe this will fix the lockouts. i hope so. i want to play EAW and SWG.

K_Kinnison · 01-13-2009, 05:43 AM

woke up this morning and my kitty is REALLY wound up. I was trying to put on my socks and he thought he found the perfect toy

Zargon · 01-13-2009, 09:58 AM

thats because he did.

wait till I abduct him and wolver-ize him.

edlib · 01-13-2009, 10:15 AM

Went to bed right after my last post... just woke up.

Yikes!

That's 13 hours of sleep, more or less.

Now I have to rush and bust ass to get out of the house!

(But I sure do feel a lot better this morning!!!)

*GUNNER* · 01-13-2009, 11:45 AM

Tuesday, 8:44AM Same as usual. Had a hearing test, hasn't changed much since my initial test in 87.

Good news though..

BattleStar Gallactica starts up again this Friday.

Kuuki · 01-13-2009, 12:05 PM

heck yes!

my fridays are too busy now, with Numbers, Psych, Monk, and BSG running in tandem

want to check out flashpoint too which is CBS before Numbers.

Gave up on sanctuary long ago....

*GUNNER* · 01-13-2009, 03:56 PM

I'm pretty pumped. especially since we had to wait since what, last March for it to start back up... I'll be suprised if they don't take a 3 month break inbetween these 10 shows.

**Cmdr. Cracken** · 01-13-2009, 04:49 PM

Broke my Rock Band 2 kick pedal yesterday. Have yet to replace it because I was planning on buying the ION kit for RB2.

Maybe.... saving money seems more prudent at this point.

Rogue15 · 01-13-2009, 09:29 PM

i want a new computer. sick of this one's nonsense. my dad's coming home tonight with some big macs.

no work tomorrow!

still gotta go check out radio shack, then weigh the pros and cons. walmart, when i think about it, actually has ALOT of pros. 1-good pay, 2-always new coworkers to make friends with, 3-10% discount on alot of stuff, 4-easy work hardly gets too boring, 5-i get profit sharing bonus every 3 months, 6-i worked there long enough to get 2 weeks paid vacation a year...

the cons are...they cut hours down to 34 which really sucks sometimes...then they pull me to run front register or some other nonsense cause they fired all the temps and now don't have enough front-end coverage.

tonight....i'm gonna try and fix The Acer. I've done a little bit o' research on 'NO POST, drives/fans spinning' issues and it could possibly be the PSU. i don't recall changing that out. since i know the one in this computer works...i am going to perform the operation...hopefully i have success. it would improve my love life anyway.

K_Kinnison · 01-14-2009, 12:37 AM

as i have said numerous times, I would enjoy and love BSG if they didn't have someone with Parkinson's disease holding the camera. It might work if you are shaking martini's but it just makes me nauseous to watch on TV.

Besides I have been enjoying Sanctuary... one of my favorite quotes to date:

Women: what just happened?
Man: Jack the ripper just dissed the guy who invented Radio

Rogue15 · 01-14-2009, 01:37 AM

attempts at computer repair went as expected. fail.

edlib · 01-14-2009, 04:17 AM

Easy day at work yesterday.

Went to bed fairly early again... though I didn't actually get to sleep all that early.

Woke up before 4 a.m. today.

I guess all that sleep yesterday is now going to throw me off for the rest of the week.

Bleh...

K_Kinnison · 01-14-2009, 06:20 AM

I woke up before 4am with a cat attacking my Ankles.

Now it is cold outside.. i mean.. REAL cold. COld enough to freeze spit

*GUNNER* · 01-14-2009, 11:32 AM

And a happy hump day to everyone.... Pretty cold here today as well, car temp gauge said 32*.
Nothing new and exciting here.

Rogue15 · 01-14-2009, 12:01 PM

it's cold here too...12 degrees.

**Cmdr. Cracken** · 01-14-2009, 01:00 PM

9*f right now in Rochester, NY.

And it's only going to get colder.

Zargon · 01-14-2009, 02:11 PM

17 here and on its way down to a forcasted -5

Kuuki · 01-14-2009, 02:18 PM

least i'm glad that my house is heated by cheap energy...

... Wood furnace!

I start fires...!

Zargon · 01-14-2009, 03:22 PM

mine is old and drafty.

178 dollars for 15-Nov to 15-Dec Power bill

Last month ours was $350 I think for electricity and gas...

Kuuki · 01-14-2009, 06:25 PM

I win!

just only lose come Aug through Oct when we gotta cut it all XP

but this year we got a bunch of coal, its cleaner then wood actually.

edlib · 01-14-2009, 09:27 PM

I have a coal burning stove in my basement, and a huge bin of coal in my backyard.

I've never used it.

It's crossed my mind more than once lately, though...

Work was slow. I was wiped out all day, again...

Well... at least I had one day this week where I felt good. That's one more than I can usually expect.

K_Kinnison · 01-14-2009, 09:38 PM

At the sound of the tone, it will be -1 Degree's in Madison, and will get down to a projected -12 later on

*B-B-B-B-BEEP*

Rogue15 · 01-14-2009, 09:45 PM

still 12 degrees but it has started to snow.
