Andy Griffith died today, he gave us so many hours of quality entertainment. It is very saddening to me since I grew up watching his shows and listening to his standup. Looks like it is off to Mayberry for me tonight

Smile: Got off work early today

Frown: Still owed the company some time so I did not get off work early today.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Smile: in the past month, I've had several RB members send me free shit. CFFJR sent me an HDD for my 360 so I wouldn't have to buy one. o.pwuaioc sent me Twisted Metal Black -- unannounced -- for no real reason other than he knew I didn't have it. ninjaspandex just sent me a bluetooth headset for my 360 because the one I bought at a yard sale for $1 didn't work. Another benefactor asked to remain nameless, but sent me a box of things just because he knew I wanted them. I can't help but feel like, wow. We really have this amazing little community of people that are more than just dudes that like games. But really, we're a bunch of friends. And that makes me feel really proud and grateful to be a part of that. I could just as easily turn around and send shit to the dudes I just mentioned because I feel I "owe them" something... but really what they've given me is a sense of uh... "paying it forward" I guess. A feeling that I'd like to perpetuate such kind-hardheartedness within this community. And maybe that's even better in the long run. Maybe we all benefit from being part of this place and sharing this hobby that we love so much. Thanks guys.

Ticked: I've been playing Deathsmiles for the last like three hours aiming for a new high score. I fucking suck.

Frown: In the last month I've had a ton of stuff I bought on the BST not show up. People keep saying they put the wrong address on the packages.

Smile: Day off tomorrow.

I always liked the Andy Griffith Show. Ironically, the primary draw for me was Don Knotts.

Don't add to my problems by pretending my past views are still held in the present. I do not have any patience for that. Feel free to ask me what I think now.

Smile: Pretty good day, did some relaxing, talked to a friend of mine for quite a while on facebook.

Ticked: I created a giant shitstorm with one comment. I should have let it go unsaid...

The friend I talked to was also still really sad about her boyfriend and her breaking up... I hope she starts feeling better. She doesn't get sad often, but when she does... its bad.
