Best Buy Blues

I like Best Buy, they have good products at good prices... But in my opinion, their stock just dropped considerably.  I bought a Geek Squad brand UPS (uniteruptable power supply.)  I bought their biggest unit because I need to protect 3 computers.  the information is not in the included manual, on-line at their website or in the included software, so I contacted 1-800-geeksquad to ask how to send the UPS' shutdown signal to all 3 pc's on a loss of power.

My Lucky Day

Well, Thursday I went into EB Games to browse and wish I could afford anything.  I  accidently bought a year subscription to game informaer magazine?!?  I picked up the magazine without reading the HUGE sign above the rack that it was a promotional and not just  a mag.  Oh well, alls well that ends well.  With the subscription, I got a bonus card and some extra-bonus coupons for trade-in games.  I decided to go through my xbox 1 titles and trade in 17 titles I was relatively sure that I would never play again.  I expected to get about $40 for all of them and put that toward Dead Rising.  on

Gaming

My console gaming experience did not evolve as most did, it mutated. 

My first console was one of the original Pong tennis machines.  it hooked to the antenna screws on the tv, could play 4 games (selected via a toggle switch) and had 2 knobs (one for each player in 2 player mode). that was in the late 70s and it also died in the late 70s.  My first pc game was worm on an Apple 2e in the mid 80s(also my first experience hacking, because I figured out how to hack the code for 99 lives.)

PC pronouns

Thats politically correct not personal computer

When I went to school I was taught that masculine was generic when no gender was specified (and that a he/she was a tranny.)  Now-a-days if you use "he" or "him" you are a sexist pig.  I admit I am lazy, "he" is 2 letters and much easier to write than "he, she, or gender insecure" every time.  I recognize that the male influence on out history has been unhealthy and repressive, and I dont think that it is getting any better but I also dont think that changing the pronouns in language is going to help.
