^ Speaking of which, hubby bought me an early birthday present and upgraded my iPhone to a new 32GB 3GS, which arrived yesterday. :)

Got quite a few new CD's, the best of which are...

Finished up my "summer job" last Friday. First had to do the necessary bodywork(mainly sanding the old paintjob off), and removed any stickers on the bike. Then followed with a fresh black paintjob, taped up the flames and painted those with a small airbrush for a nice finish. Corrected any mishaps on the paintjob, laquered and assembled. The owner took it off my hands last Friday and gave me a wad of well-needed cash. Pictures below:

Sweet flamejob, Keno!


Forgot to post this over here, I grabbed this 32" HDTV off of Craigslist for a song. It wasn't working right but a reflow of the joints on the power regulation board and it's been going strong ever since.

Also, I got another 360 Pro with 2 games off of craigslist for 120 and also one missing the dvd drive for 40.

Also picked up the headphones with mic and remote on them.

If anyone is in the market for an iPod Touch (1st gen) shoot me a message, this one is replacing my old one so I want to unload that. It still works perfectly, I just needed more storage and wanted to be able to make skype calls.

Actually, while bulky, CRT monitors are pretty nice, in terms of image quality, that is . . .
Or when they break beyond repair, their components are actually pretty sweet--'cept for the broken stuff of course. I found a power transistor (http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/235091/IRF/IRFP4004PBF.html) that normally costs $20 that way.

Enough said.

I won't be able to use it for a few months, as it's my first part bought and I'm buying slowly as things go on sale, but.... at least I picked it up for $199.99 - a savings of $70 if I would have bought it from Newegg.

Also, writing a summary of a book as your reading it makes for a lot of typing...

171 pages into a 970 page book = 15 pages / 9000+ words of summary

But in a month or two it could drop $70 couldn't it? rendering your saving useless. I never buy PC parts until I need them, even if they are on sale.

Nah, the price isn't supposed to drop, because the i5 is supposed to become the mainstream processor.

And even if it does drop $70 (extremely unlikely) - then it would be the same as buying it now.

Thus, I lose nothing by buying now.

Ouch, that's some heavy writing there.

Heh... but this isn't for a class... I'm just doing it for ****s and giggles. But then again, the Wikipedia page for the book has no summary at all, so I may put a shortened version on there and link to the full annotation separately. I'm basically creating a "I don't wanna read all 970 pages, how about 60 pages instead?" version of the book.






Why am I doing this?...

I've had to read a lot worse of stories for other years. This book is a masterpiece compared to my expierence with Great Expectations. But I'm more nervous about the journaling/email correspondence I have to do. I hate killings trees, and I think I'm going to have a lot to kill with this.

Also, back on the subject of good things, I bought 2 pairs of striped legwarmers, and went out on a date yesterday.
