So after almost 4 years I finally put up pictures I took on the first Band of Brothers Victory Tour from Stephen Ambrose Historical Tours.

We followed the path of E Co, 506th PIR, 101st Airborne from their training grounds in Georgia to England, France, Holland, Belgium, Germany, and Austria. Highlights of the trip included the C-47 flight from Bournemouth to Cherbourg, finding an M-1 shell casing in former E Co positions in the woods of the Bois Jacques (outside of Foy) and walking the battlefield of Brecourt Manor.
We travelled with two actual E Company veterans, Edward 'Babe' Heffron and 'Wild' Bill Guarnere. They were great and very open in sharing their experiences. I got to see them again in the fall of 2003 when I attended the E Company Reunion in Phoenix.

Oh yeah, that was the Sox 12th win in a row. Also, they've tied the Cards for the longest errorless streak at 16 games.

A couple of weeks ago, one girl I really like suggested that we grab dinner sometime. I've been busy trying not to fail Spanish II, but I tried to see if she might be up for dinner this weekend. I've called and left a voicemail, but she hasn't returned my call.
I normally wouldn't care and just move on, but it was her suggestion in the first place and I really like this chick. :( Should I try calling again, or just forget it? I'm leaning towards "forget it" right now.

I live in Leon County (Tallahassee) florida and supposedly 50-80% of us say fucking COKE when we're referring to soda. Now, I don't think that's true. I don't know anyone who calls it COKE. If I heard that, I'd sure as fuck notice it.
It's not pop, it's definitely not a fucking COKE unless it's a Coca-Cola Classic. Otherwise you call it by it's name or SODA. Pop never fucking applies.
America is crazy.

The other night my console flashed three red lights of doom. I paniced and shut it off, sat in the dark for a moment with my bottom lip quivering, then decided to unplug it and try it again. Thankfully it worked.
However my wireless controller was deactivated. No worries! I'll just re-assign it! So I turn on the console, turn on the controller, hit the button on the console, hit the button on the controller... They find eachother.. Start flashing in unison.. And then the console shows 1st player connected
While the controller keeps flashing. And won't stop til I unplug the batteries. WTF. This happens every time. Thankfully I have a wired controller, but damn this sucks :\ Any ideas?

Please help trouble-shoot this, looks like my PC is about to explode. This all started days ago where it randomly reboots itself while I'm playing a game, usually it boots back up ok. Tonight, however, it didn't boot back up(get to the bootup memory counting messages) until I let the machine sit a while. Then it started and I heard 5 rapid 'Beep' sounds from the machine and the HD light flashed.
So I reset it again, and now it comes back up saying "CMOS Checksum failed. Loaded default".... and now once I get back into XP it's reinstalling drivers for all my devices(the raid controller, sound card, etc)... it's as if it lost its hardware settings.
Any pointers? Is it something overheating? Is the HD too old maybe? Thanks!
