Well here's a special treat for you all. Instead of reviewing the comments like I used to I'm changing it to review the pics of the LAN party. To me it wasn't all that great when you think your 3 hours late for an 11 a.m. party that never really got started until 11P.M. Due to the fact that SOME people didn't mention had to work that day! So it was me and LoCo for a long while there talking about shit and of course my #1 hobby collection Transformers. :) Now since I took the pics they have a Transformer kinda theme to them. It was just so cool asking everyone I could find to hold a 2 foot robot in front of a camera. "Could you hold this for me, please" *click* *FLASH!* :)
To start off here's a pic of LoCoBaStArD at his TOTAL piece of shit PC.

when i get the boot: prompt, if i hit enter, i get "Invalid or corrupt kernel image file" or something to that effect. same if i type "knoppix" with any parameters.
so i'm guessing i either downloaded a corrupt version or else i just got a bad burn, right? i'm going to try burning it to a different disc and seeing if it was just a bad blank.

As some of you may remember, I was less than impressed with the book series when I read it last year. That trend continues with this movie. I liked the movie a LOT more than the book, since it cut out most of that stupid boring shit that plagues the first book.
I hold out hope for TTT, because that book was three times as good as Fellowship.

"An Arab man buys some stuff at the store, but is short like $20. The lady behind him in line offers him the money. Outside the man is so happy he tells the lady not to buy any Coke product after August 1st." Blah Blah Blah. Of course I'm thinking, "Bruce, crack kills." Well, today I have this awful head cold stiff neck sore throat headache etc etc etc. I know it is just some silly rumour, but if you don't see me in a few days... well... don't drink any Coke products :)

I'm looking for a new mobile phone, and have been advised that there is better than nokia out there. I used to have a 8250 (http://www.nokia-asia.com/nokia_apac/asia_pacific/8250_main).
I've been looking at Siemens... the SL42 has mp3 but at 20 mins its more of a gimmick i think. The S45 looks cool with the handfree, i like that, but I'm sure you could hook a handsfree to anyphone. Anyone got either one of these phones or has a phone that rocks?
on a side note, the dude on that 8250 page looks almost exactly like me... wierd
