Cool craaaaaap you've acquired/done lately

Wow. Hard disks get cheaper and cheaper.

Best Buy, of all places. The list price wasn’t much lower than $200 but since I was buying a lap top and got a bag and mouse I went ahead and got the disc drive and got 10% off. Now I’m trying to figure out how to move files from our desktop to my lap top using the thing. Hmmm…

Got the mini 320 hard disk from WD as my back up for my new MacBook. It’s shiny and blue…

Cool craaaaaapp that I’ve done lately: well, I’m going on a date tonight. So not done, but doing. Yay.

Huzzah! Good luck and have fun. Here’s to hoping that you’re NOT back here posting something at 10pm.

Well, unless there’s a date rapist involved.

I know it’s really late but I just aquired the Lord of The Rings extended trilogy Dvds. I saw them for £17 (about US$34) and couldn’t resist. So worth it, the making ofs (those I’ve seen so far) are as good as the movies. Definately some cool craaaaaaaaaaaap in my book.

I also aquired my first Philip K. Dick novel, “The Man in the High Castle”. I would call it my first sci-fi novel but it hasn’t really gotten very sci-fi…as of what I’ve read…but it is fantastically written and so worth the purchase. Hopefully, this will lead me to delve deeper into sci-fi fiction.

Thanks for the vote of confidence :mad:

I have highly enjoyed Philip K. Dick’s writing. It doesn’t always have the same sci-fi feel as other of his contemporaries but is still good.

Actually, that was an in-joke on myself.

Anyway, will you tell us all about your date? Like, all the details? Like we’re your collective big sister?

Do not be mad at GR. It was part of a joke on one thread or another about him. You are obligated to give us the good news say by Saturday evening. :wink:

Bacon Salt. I gots me some Bacon Salt.

Its awesome. I cant wait to cook everything with it. Its essientially Bacon Flavored Salt. I got two flavors. Original and Peppered. Ive been looking for this stuff for a long time.

I am Happy :D:D:D:D

I bought a DVD, To Catch a Thief, Collectors Edition. It’s probably my favourite movie. This weekend I’ll be watching the radiant vision of beauty, Grace Kelly, driving like a nut job down the mountain side in Monaco.

I also got Burnout Paradise and Bionic Commando:Rearmed. I love me some Bionic Commando

A thin line between stupid and enthusiastic, some would say !! Not me, though. Kudos to you, LD. I have a feeling you’re a fantastic teacher.:smiley:

Nice news, A ! Always great to get a ‘Way Bigger’ check ! Enjoy yourself…:smiley:

Yee Ha !! A date ! Damn, I almost remember what that is…

Yes, SB…It’s a moral imperative !! ALL the details, please.

Glad for ya ! Salty-Mc-Lister-guy. Save some for the GWC national meetup, OK ?

mmm…Grace…they don’t make them like that anymore.

I made it through the first week of school with students. OK the first 2 days.

So are you saying your music is going to be played, recorded, and your getting paid? I did not know that they did that with your kind of music. :wink:

Congratulations, so when do I get to hear your work. Can I afford it anymore? :rolleyes:

I found a DVD of the complete “Schoolhouse Rock” in the bargain bin at Target…for five bucks!

Guess what I got today!

I got a speeding ticket!

Don’t know if I would call that “cool”…

No, but it definitely fulfills the craaaap criterion.
