I was driving home from the store tonight with my daughter in the back. I turned on her sing along CD and London Bridge came on. Excited she exclaimed "London Bridge is on! Thank you daddy!" So I said "Yep, I found it." Not missing a beat she replied with "No, I found it daddy." Well, come on now, I did actually find it so I want some credit here. So I told her, "No, I found it." Her response?
"I'm going to blow the car up."

when I was heading to mexico on a connection in phoenix, I had like 10 minutes to eat, so I ran into the Burger King to grab a quick burger to eat on the plane. So I'm standing in line, and I look over to the table to my right, and this chick has a v-neck t-shirt thing on, sitting there with her kid on the table, and across her chest in bad cursive letters she has tattood "Kash Money".
I was in awe.

Look at the prices on these 128GB drives!
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2003240636%201421430849&name=128GB
It's crazy how fast they have come down. And yeah I know, Intel SSD rules but that shit is just WAY too expensive at this time.
My ideal drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167015
160GB Intel, $800 lol

Are there plenty of people playing? I'm a new 360 owner and am contemplating getting the 30 dollar package deal consisting of a headset + 3 months of Live service.
Will I have a good time playing now, 8 months after the game's release? I found most of the single player terrifically enjoyable.

I went through the tutorial and I'm not sure all the crazy added complexity added the fun =/
There's too much work to do... though I can tell there should be some AMAZING constructions given the tools involved.

I've done firewall and routing work before, but it's been a bit so forgive me if this question is dumb or makes no sense.
We need to establish a vpn tunnel with another company. They already have a tunnel with someone else who uses one of our IP ranges (which I cannot change).
I need to NAT that range that is already in use to an IP from one of our other ranges that isnt taken.
How?

Two New Zealand prisoners who were handcuffed together as they fled a courthouse foiled their own getaway when they ran to opposite sides of a light pole, slammed into each other and fell to the ground.

What's a good way to get started and established in this game? So far, I spend a substantial chunk of my time getting captured by various types of bandits and then escaping, losing valuable trade goods in the process. It's starting to make me think of it more like a realism mod, with all the associated suck.
And I'm continually left wondering why I, a guy on a fucking horse, can't just ride away from a bunch of assholes on foot.

Pup: everyone upstairs... where is papaboo?... Upstairs, upstairs!
At this point I look over and Papaboo is getting swarmed by zombies. Pup runs downstairs and knifes 2 and Papaboo runs away while Pup gets killed. It's been like this all night. It's funny and sad all at the same time.

I thought about this video clip as I was driving home last night and I started smiling. I start smiling because I know this idiot is still alive and now Obama is President. I hate her so much.
