It took everything I had not to hug the man.
Haha. Now I want one too.

I'm not a fan of Big Red myself, but have you seen the uh, Blue Big Red? Either I was on crack or I saw that at the grocery store the other day. Either of these explanations is equally possible.

Oh, and it does look like it was probably a Valero.

Yep, that's the logo. Definitely a valero. And no you weren't seeing things. There is a Big Blue, and I dont like it. There is also a Big Peach and Big Pineapple. Big Pineapple is literal proof of heaven.

:cry: James Gandolfini is dead

The Sopranos was my favorite show for many many years. Only 51. So sad.

Crushed.

I just got back in (minutes ago) from smoking a cigar on my porch with a glass of scotch, neat, and the news shook me something awful.

This is heart breaking news.

Very sad. The Sopranos is one of the only HBO shows that I was ever really able to get into, and it was largely due to how enjoyable Gandolfini's character was. I'll have to watch the series again someday.

Well, not buying that specific RX-8 now. Guy started acting flaky as hell when I said I wanted to take it to the dealer (at my expense) to have it looked over. Also was incredibly rude about it.

New engine or not, if I can't have it looked over and a compression test done, I'm not buying it.

That said, there's a nice, lower mileage Winning Blue one being sold by a nice Southern gentleman I'm looking at Wednesday.

:mrgreen:

Today has been otherwise a great day! I'm definitely enjoying my final week of relaxation in Summer before moving, tests, and a bunch of other shit goes down.

Well you are using a DJ program. Beat matching when changing songs is a large portion of what a normal DJ does other than carefully selecting songs.
I was going to use the sample as background music and tweak the song and some other things, but it doesn't work.

:( Kid broke the PSP (sorta). She's usually really good about these sorts of things, and I'm blaming her because I have no idea what else could have happened. The USB cable now has to be plugged in just right for it to mount. Really stinks...

:) Found my old fatty 1000. I know the screen is worse on this thing, and it's not quite as fast, but boy I love the way this thing feels. It's a little tank.

:D Finished "Pokemon Adventures Vol 1", and was pleasantly surprised how good it got towards the end. The first few chapters had me liking it better than the anime, but I still wasn't sure about it. Once Red go to Lavender town, I suddenly realized how much better this series really is. I can't wait to read more.

:D 2 hours 'til my weekend and then 5 workdays left 'til vacation.
