Wait..... what.... WHAT?!?!?! Is that for real?
Yeah, Swans is headlining and apparently they're releasing a double album on August 28. I have no idea if they're playing in Maine; my local theater sent me an email.

Swans as in Gira and Jarboe? Or is this some fake pretender?

I'm sure there's an actual thread for that somewhere, likely in the Nintendo section. Or I'm sure there's discussion in one of the E3 threads about it. This random thread is primarily for non game related random things.

Do airplanes still carry barf bags? I seriously don't remember seeing any the last few times I have flown. Skymall magazines on the other hand were everywhere, usually at least a year old.

I'll pass on the $250 Harry Potter replica wand, Skymall. That $100 Batman Begins batarang money clip however is pretty badass.

Yes on the barf bags, used one coming into New Joy-zee from Ireland. They had to circle the airport for about 30 minutes in heavy turbulence and ... my body said no thank you.
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.

Congrats man. May not be your dream job, but work your tail off and it will do great things for your future.

Get used to people asking "working hard, or hardly working?" and use all restraint possible to not smack the snot of them.

Imagining is what I'll be doing. Saving as much as possible to get myself a vehicle.

That's a real good rate of pay for a first job. I hope it works out well for you.

Saving might be harder than it sounds once you're getting some serious dough. I've had to set an allowance for myself, because it's such a different experience being able to buy pretty much any game I want any time I want.
