When did Paris hilton go to jail!?

Apparently I'm way out of the loop and it took an all night-er at work to stumble on something that apparently every new organization on the planet has been reporting.  Maybe I should cut back the Guitar Hero II time at home and actually watch the news where I can keep abreast of important world events like this.

I have yet to purchase Shadowrun and am debating upgrading the old XPS with Vista where i can start playing some of the vast library of games that are exclusive to that OS like the 2 year old Halo 2 which I beat on the old Xbox and.. um...  Shadowrun.  I hope I'm not the only one feeling like they're being held hostage by M$.

Kitten is doing fine if you read the previous blog.  Opened its eyes today and the kids when berzerk which is always nice.

Here's a neato fact I'll wrap up with.  I just recently reloaded my XPS laptop from scratch with a copy of XP pro.  One of the limiting factors on a gaming lappy is the lack of HD space.  I know that 60 Gigs 4 years ago would be frikkin Huge but now WoW takes up over 15% of that space.  I'd always labored under the impression that games needed to be on the fastest HD you could get though so I would delete older games as new ones came out...  though sometimes choices would come within a month of installing the game.  Sooo, I installed NTFS on a 300 Gig USB2 HD that I had sitting around and installed a couple games on there after I started from scratch.  You know what!?  It works great!  I have not tried putting and FPS games on there but Total War II, WoW and a couple others work great running through the USB2 cable.  I also have 2 gigs of memory which probably helps a lot as well but still a big surprise.
