Lost two weeks of my life helping out family.

Got rejected from a job offer. (Good news actually -- first reply of any sort I ever got in a year.)

Giants beat the Pats. Jeremy Lin is finally getting play for the Knicks. And finally got a chance to post here again!
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

That shouldn't be a bad thing.

Smile: I finally got some working rgb cables for my ps1 and saturn. It looks fantastic, but it can also reveal a bit too much of the flaws in those early 3d games. I'm not complaining, I think its kind of funny. Very happy to have the cables though.

Big Frown: I got in to a huge fight with my wife tonight and I'm completely disgusted by the whole situation.

I can't even really talk about it because I'm not really able to organize my thoughts right now. I also can't say half the things I want to say to her because it'll start the fight up again.

This was a bad one and I'm just incredibly frustrated beyond my ability to describe.

It doesn't help that for some mysterious reason I woke up today with the shakes, all over my body. The fight only made that worse. Its been over an hour since the row and I'm perfectly calm now, yet I'm still trembling all over.

Sorry for unloading this, I'm just trying to vent a little bit.

But they're family. What should it matter?

Smile:
Won a lot of cassettes cheap but had high shipping on ebay. Still a good value when considering the number of albums.

Ticked Off:
I didn't notice that most of the tapes in the lot were singles and not full albums before I bid.

Smile: This.

In short, Jason Reitman is putting together a reading of Reservoir Dogs starring only African American actors. "So far Reitman’s cast includes Terrence Howard as Mr. Blonde, Anthony Mackie as Mr. Pink, Cuba Gooding Jr. as Mr. Orange, and Anthony Anderson as Nice Guy Eddie, with the rest yet to be cast (provided they can find a better black guy to play Mr. Brown than Quentin Tarantino)."

I know someone who is going to this, can't wait to hear about the performances.


Frown: No plans for the weekend. Usually that would make me smile, but I feel like traveling.

"A movie about black people? Better call Cuba Gooding Jr!"

You've never heard of Reservoir Dogs?

And this is a reading of a movie's script, Retman isn't casting for a movie.

No, I've never heard of Reservoir Dogs :roll:

Shit, I'm happy Cuba's getting work at all. I thought he was going to star in direct-to-DVD thrillers for the rest of his life, like Seagal without any of the ironic awesome inherent.
