Also, does it seem like your shoe size is actually a size larger than your sandal size? I had size 13 sandals before, and they felt too big... (XXL would be matching my 13 with the rainbows, but XL gives me about 3/4 of an inch extra space... from their measurements)

Is there anything I should be careful of when buying a PS2 off of eBay? Anything equivalent to the Xbox's Thompson drive problems? Alternately, is there anyplace reliable selling PS2s for less than $100, which is about what I'd expect to pay on eBay?

That reminds me of a perspective of mine I was trying to explain to a friend.
I said "imagine if you lived downtown across from where you work. You could sell your car and walk to work. Wake up, walk to work, spend ~9 hours there, walk back across the street, eat, sleep, wake up, walk back over there..."
Like when I worked at Wal-Mart of all places one summer. I used to joke that we should put some cots in the back room. Would never have to leave the store. Just wake up, work, go in the back and sleep, and wake up and work...
There must be more to life then just working?

It's being very flaky connecting to web sites as of late. Both IE and firefox will randomly hang indefinitely when trying to connect to websites. When I'm trying to refresh the shack, I have to hit F5 multiple times before it finally goes through. I've even had problems connecting to GAIM. Also, I can't connect via web or FTP to my site that I'm positive (I've had other people test) is up.
I'm connected through my university connection, which has always worked fine, and with which other people have no problems. This behavior started a day or two ago, essentially at random. At first I only noticed it whilst refreshing the shack, but recently it's started to inhibit all browsing...

Brought the box inside, and the first thing I noticed it was both big and heavy. For reference, I've included a picture of it near my XBox.

Undaunted by the sheer size, I carefully open the top to expose the insides. So much box for so thin a machine? There must be some shipping regulations that say it can be big and thin, or else Apple gets their cardboard from trees in Asia.

Obligatory box contents shot with OS X Panther, Final Cut Express 2.0, and the Airport Extreme discs. Note the lack of wires coming from the bluetooth enabled mouse and keyboard (rolled up wires are phone line and power cord):
http://bulletpro.shackspace.com/imacg5/contents.jpg
I go to take the machine out of the box, when I look back and see that my 10 month old son has escaped from his toys to check out Daddy's new toy. I thought it was cute that he stuck the mouse in his mouth so I took a picture.

About the time the flash went off I remembered he now has teeth. My clear-n-white plastic mouse now has teeth scratches near the top. :(
I stick it on my wife's laptop desk to play with it. My office is downstairs, and is not kid proof at all. Hers is upstairs, and is very kid proof. The bootup logo reminds me of my iPod, but then again that shouldn't have surprised me.

And finally, it seems no O/S is safe from the required gush of software updates including keyboard and mouse firmware, heh.

It's quieter than my wife's HP/Compaq Presario AMD-powered laptop. I didn't try doing any processor intensive tasks that would spin the fan up, but eventually I'll get FCE to peg the processor.

1) Shackers I was playing with were not chatty bitches
2) Skill lvl was pretty equal
3) Some folks had to pitch a tent to get on the score board
4) Folks knew their jobs
5) Nobody took a leadership role
We were generally on the winning side (I think I was in like 5 or 6 games), and when we lost, it seemed like the other side got focused and wiped us out.
All in all, it was a lot of fun, and I'd like to kill Shackers more.
On a different front, somebody said that they were killing the game b/c they did not want to leave their Xbox on all night. I've been thinking about buying another Xbox to use as a Dserver. Would the Shack be interested in using that?

October 05, 2004 - Gamers always complain. Give them a stellar single player game like Grand Theft Auto 3 or Pirates! and they'll bitch that there's no multiplayer. Give them a fantastic multiplayer game like Starsiege Tribes and they'll moan endlessly about the lack of a single player mode. While we'll still have to wait for some sort of solution for those first two titles, that last gripe has safely been put to rest by Irrational Games' Tribes: Vengeance. awesome
