Up again, just doing drivers and stuff…things do sound a lot better…I’m hearing things better in some songs that I wasn’t hearing with the old one.

New sound card being installed (didn’t like onboard sound) in Diamonds, be back soon.

I spent the better part of the night playing CS:Source against folks online or against Greg. Is it too much fun? Yes. Will have to take a break from it and code some more.
In related news…Kyle is back from vacation with his gf tomorrow.

So…had an idea that probably isn’t new.

Have street people hold up signposts on street corners and have them run by cars at red lights with the websites. Pay them on a comission basis (5 cents a hit) during the day and that night and you should have happy street people (resonably happy) and good advertising on your hands!

Go to it folks!

Damn you Eric!!! I can’t stop listening to this song…there’s also another song that I can’t stop listening to but I’ll play that in a bit.

Finding Out True Love is Blind

Now for some sleep before another day!

Yes, a lot of posts all of a sudden right at night. I need to get sleep soon but first…filtering through email and seeing who wants my money more…the Nigerians or the East Asians.

The Paris Hilton collection at Amazon.

Helping sluts look their best, from one slut to another.

Only one movie to really speak of…American Psycho starring Christian Bale (Batman!) and maybe season 1 of Bewitched…but the movie is what we’ve all been really waiting for (even Jon will agree :P).

So the movie is filming (yippee) and it’ll be starring:
Tom Hanks (mama says I’ll be good in this fill-um (film)).
Audrey Tautou (Regrettez-vous quelque chose?)
Ian McKellen (You shall not pass!)
Alfred Molina (Thank you Sweetie)
Jean Reno (What do you want for Christmas?)

Everybody except Tom Hanks has a quote from one of their films (do you know which ones?)

In any case, this is a most excellent all star cast that are serious about their roles and I can see each one playing each to perfection.

Thanks to Swid for turning me to this song: Download.
Definetly catchy.

Yes…bad memory…1 gig gone bad…must replace…DDR2…ran scans…RAN SCANS YA’LL!

US F1 Grand Prix just completed with Schumacher winning (awesome!!!), Barrichello, and Monteiro filling out the top 3.
All cars running Michelin cars withdrew from the race because of safety concerns so only 6 cars were left to race. Faaaantastic!
The fans of course were booing and I know exactly what they feel like. The teams that didn’t run have lost serious credibility as has the sport.

It seems that I may have some bad memory to deal with. Will run some scans on it soon…I reverted to 1 gig and ran tests on it and everything is solid. I will reinstall the other gig to see if that was the issue and then will run tests on it.

Got a new keyboard…Saitek Gaming keyboard…it glows blue. Will go well with my new Razer mouse!

Just a quick guide for those that don’t know the know.
480i (525i) – 480 visible scanlines interlaced…NTSC.
576i (625i) – 576 visible scanlines interlaced…PAL.
480p (525p) – 480 visible scanlines.
576p (625p) – 576 visible scanlines.

Interlaced pretty much means that only half the lines are updated each update.

HD is 720p or 1080i. Anything else is not HD.

When you are buying an HD TV you need to know what it’s native resolution is. Native means what it has internally in its chip that

So today I met Adam Stanley a couple times and Snuggles/Diane a couple times as well. Strange!

FINALLY!!!

Remember that song with the rain and the dancing and puddin’? Official release date is August 8th.

Well, what can I say? I just played a couple hours of Half Life 2 on the new box and things are ticking right along. Course, I need a new video card (only an X700 in this baby, will probably go to the X850 at the end of July).
Oh yeah, what did I name this box? Diamonds…as in Diamonds are Forever.
Definetly can thank Greg for helping out with the specs for this box.

What better way to break in a new machine than to watch ‘Gone in 60 Seconds‘ Director’s Cut.
Is the Director’s Cut worth buying? Definetly. The additional scenes add to the dynamic within the group. The relationship between the brothers is more developed with Kip shown to not fully understand his predicament until quite late in the film.
There’s a significant number of other additions such as a longer police station sequence, a few extra seconds of exchange with Castlebeck..and much more.
