 In the past couple of months I have picked up a new computer with a 22" widescreen flatpanel monitor, a PS3, and a soundbar for the monitor. Since the monitor is hooked up to the video card with DVI, I'm able to link the PS3 with HDMI to HDMI  and I must say it looks mahvelous! As soon as the backordered bluetooth headset comes in I can go online for some multiplayer action. (with what I don't know yet) And that stupid two foot usb cable for the controller is no longer an issue.
 New poster for The Dark Knight is out and looks awesome. (can't believe I'm still using that word)

 So I'm at work walking from the back of the warehouse to the office when i see one of my employees coming out of the bathroom, shirt off, wiping himself with paper towels. Huh? Everyone's on lunch. Then I notice the blood on his hands and on his jacket hanging on the bathroom door. WTF! He tells me that he was walking up to Tim Hortons for lunch and he sees this guy beating on a girl in the parking lot. He steps up and tells the guy "that'll be enough of that". The tough guy turns and tells him to fuck off and mind his own business.

So the 360 goes RROD on Friday morning. I phone 4MYXBOX and after speaking less than 10 minutes with a pleasant lady with no detectable accent, the process is underway. This is the sequence so far...

 I got this email from my sister and after checking the story out at Snopes I found the photos to be real but not the story. It's a rock python in Angola and it had just wolfed down an impala. Trying to get away, it didn't quite make it.
 How would you like to go out into your backyard in the morning and find this at your fenceline.

 So I fire up the 360 this morning, start to watch Bubba's clip of cougar tagging and freeze! Shit. Turn it off and on again and la-di-fucking-da, the Red Rings of Death appear. Isn't this just wonderful. And it's two hours too early to phone support. Gives me plenty of time to work up a lather. When I do phone, the girl I talk to is all nice and polite and less than 10 minutes later I'm hanging up the phone and the coffin's on it's way (I hope). Still being pretty pissed, I vent my frustration by running across the street and buying a PS3.
