I got a PS2 and SSX so I'm a happy camper :) I can't believe she remembered the name of the game, I only mentioned it once.
I brought it over to a friends house and raced for a couple hours.
Tomorrow i go out in search of a 2nd controller, a memory card, a couple games and some tire chains cause we're leaving for tahoe tomorrow night :)

Wow, how do the 56 k'ers do it? I haven't even looked at sTeve's xmas pictures yet because they will take so long... I'm at my mom's and she got me the baddest trenchcoat I ever seen, and some coffee and beer. Wish they had cable in her area... this is sad, it makes me sad. No one should be forced to wait for pages to load over dialup... it's inhumane
I got a trenchcoat, and I told my mom about Marcus Allen but I didn't tell her about my crush on kristen
My mom likes pigs the way I like dogs, she has a plastic pignose that she wears around and she was wearing it around tonight and making pig noises and scaring me. mom's kinda weird. She says if she finds a plastic dognose she will get me one.
Did I mention I got a trenchcoat? Well, see y'all tomorrow! Gotta go, before I lose my crappy 44k connection@#$%78#!BVJM&ASD$#WOOF

I'm looking up a song on CDNow right now and, of course, there are about 50+ songs with the same title.
I don't know the artist (looking it up for my brother). With my luck, they won't even have it :D

This is a fundamental shift in the demand for technology products," he said. "People aren't waiting to buy because of pricing or not buying because of pricing. People aren't buying because they don't need it."
I was wondering when the average consumer was going to realize that their PII-450 is MORE than enough for using AOL and MS Word. I think the comp industry is in serious trouble. Problem is, a crisis there will trigger a crisis everywhere else. I think the ultimate effect here could easily lead to recession.
