I didn't know you were so into gaming, Dana (or at least your DH is!)
I'm probably going to end up with an HP Pavilion Media Center refurbished -- that way at least I'll be able to use it as a TV/DVR, too.
My whole life just flashed before my eyes! I gotta get me a life!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

and pining for a good hurricane.
I was on a conference call with some international partners and they were talking about how great their weather was. Our side was all " we're hoping for a hurricane." They were a little startled and asked us to repeat that, thinking they'd misunderstood.
It's not as bad as some droughts I've seen here, but the trees are beginning to brown up more than they should.

Dog is my co-pilot.
Jeopardy is in HD right now, on 707.
Even though I was watching on regular tv, it was a really good game. (Yes, I definitely don't need AT in HD.) And I knew the Wright brothers!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I just discovered a new addition to tasteless mac and cheese dinner: anchovies!

Yeah, more him. But really, he's more into shiny things than serious gaming.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And I knew the Wright brothers!
Me too! And maybe I've gotten over my Jeopardy PTSD. But I still hate Trebek.

We will be looking at the idea of Jesus as a Lord of time and showing who Jesus was and the different images of him throughout time.
Some people should have their metaphor licenses revoked.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Today was really phenomenally stupid, and I am very glad it's over.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
One reason that I'm actually intrigued enough by them is that they will set up the computer with acoustic dampening (aka inside padding) and liquid cooling, which means I won't have to listen to a small but annoying fan whining whining whining, which honestly in a cubeland environment isn't so bad (white noise kind of drowns out all the voices) but in a nice quiet house puts my teeth on edge.
Hm, Tom's last work computer (before it blew up but good a couple months ago) was Alienware and it was LOUD. SO loud. Like, he had to get a fix within 24 hours loud. He's got a Dell somethin'-somethin' now and he says it's so quiet it practically echos in his office.
