Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I'm hitting a Staples at 5am, and my Dad is hitting another.  Our combined forces in a concerted coordinated strike should net a decent PC.

The mob was truly underwhelming this AM.  Walked away with a decent i5 HP for my surfing and home computing, which will run side-by-side next to my dedicated gaming rig I'm building.

Great thing about these Black Friday deals with consumer electronics is the savings winds up eliminating the mark-up, so in the end you're paying for what you're actually getting.  A prefab HP tower shouldn't be more than $399 anyway.

I'm delighted to report Black Friday has hit the UK this year, albeit in a minor way and somewhat blurring the lines with Cyber Monday. I may just order myself a new iPod to replace my one with the smashed screen and tell Satnta that's what he's bringing me this year.

I conducted a snap raid this morning to snag three of these:

I did overhear somebody talking about trying to root one. NERDS.  :rolleyes:

Just ordered a sweet ASUS laptop from Bestbuy, gonna go down later today and pick it up. 8GB RAM, 1TB HD, and NVIDIA 560M for $1,199.

Cons, it's 17.3', but once I get back to Korea it'll just sit on my desk so it's not much of a hassle. A lot less hassle and expense than shipping a desktop over there and back.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I might go to the Apple store....  :wacko:

No sale on iPhones = operation aborted.

Not suffering the hipster-zerg rush is probably for the best.

I've got a big bowl of leftovers and the remainder of the turkey has been simmering on the stove since last night. If there's a  heaven, this is what it smells like. There is no way in hell I'm leaving this house today.  :)

It helps when the manager plays in the monthly poker game and owes me money.

Next year I'm taking American Thanksgiving off. Fuck this crap work days when all you want to do is stuff your face & shop.
