Phreak... where do you live? I'm so gonna rob you. I want that TIE Interceptor and that X-Wing. Hand 'em over!
I have the A-Wing and the AT-AT
I really shouldn't post this, but I think it's been established that I'm a huge Star Wars nerd.

I really need to dust, but I keep procrastinating.
Now I don't feel like the only freak for having things like these. <3
Heheheh. I have me a couple of those millenium falcon micro machines and that Vader Tie fighter. An AT-AT, and Luke's X-wing. And several other playsets with minifigures. Jabba's palace with the sarlacc pit, Endor, Yavin 4 echo base, and Palpatine's chamber.

Micro Machines? I've got a crapload stuffed in a large ziplock bag somewhere. I even have Star Trek Micro Machines. There were plenty of Star Wars vs Star Trek battles when I was younger.
Finally finished my concert-jacket. It's been a work in progress for around 2 years and I finally got around to sewing on the last patches. I might try to cram on some more later, but at least I consider it a completed work now! Next project is a denim vest I've just started on.

I don't expect many people here to recognize any of the bands, but I put enough time, money, and effort into it that I thought I'd share. It should also get me a bunch of free beer and new acquaintances when I go to Hellfest in two weeks:

I don't expect many people here to recognize any of the bandsi dont think the fonts a lot of those bands choose are meant to actually be read anyway
ps grow a neckbeard before the whole shebang and shave a pentagram into it
You kinda look like a young Staley in that second picture
Yay useless comments all around!
Back on the topic of very good things, my little brother just started playing (under my guidance and supervision) Knights of the Old Republic. Put in a solid 2 hours in it just tonight :)
Awesome jacket and awesome Hellfest. Though, I think if the Terrorizer tent burned down, no one would miss it... mostly.
Nah dude all the good doom is in the Terrorizer tent!
main stages are mostly crap though
Come now children, I'm away for a week and this is what happens? I'll have to start putting you kids over my knee if you don't start behaving.

How about we get this thread back on track by my showing off more of my Star Wars nerd cred.
Look at dem Star Destroyers!

I forgot I had some of those ships. Like the Hapan Nova Battle Cruiser and the Scimitar TIE Bomber.

In other good news
The Valhalla Renaissance Faire is going on this weekend and next weekend up in Lake Tahoe. I'm going next weekend b/c it'll be the more adult weekend with pirates and lotsa booty.
Payday today...wonder if I should buy some parts and try that instructables thing with the x-clamps on my 360.
i got scalding hot motor oil to pour all over my hand, ford trucks are ever so fun

My very favorite thing about Fords is their inability to complete a turn in less than a quarter mile radius. Thanks, Ford, for helping us all be comfortable making a 4 part turn. :thmbup1:

i just dont appreciate the location of the ford f250 oil filter, other than that, i dont mind fords, ive actually owned 4 consecutive fords
Yeah, I don't change my own oil, so it's just the lack of turning and the gas guzzling that bummed me since I always pulled a stock trailer with mine.
Good thing: I made a HUGE Texas Sheet Cake today and it's friggin' gorgeous!!

im the manager of a tire lube express, so i get to do plenty of that
and i may be getting a new apt soon, thats good
Picked up Just Cause 2 the other day. Blowie up woo
As well as Sleep is Death, which I will play with Darathy as soon as he responds to me in some manner vaguely recognizable as communication. CURSE YOU DARATHY. Totally psyched about it though. If anyone else has, or even somewhat wants to play... message me.
Cousin weddingness on Sunday, which is a relative good. Good, insofar as I like seeing people happy; bad, insofar as I had to give up going out on the town tonight with my buddies who tempted me with many temptations (I will not list these). However, part of these things is my that my friend is now permanently back from university, which is a good thing. Even so, his heckling is offensive. So it is probably just a 70% good thing until I crush his larynx.
Also got even more Transmetropolian collections. Only missing #8 now... its time will come.
Awesome video:

Last good thing... getting to pick my scheduled hours now that I am a supervisor. SWEET DEAL. It is unpossible to marginalize this, having previously worked until ~2-11pm. 7-3 here I come, baby.
so the wife and i signed the lease on a new apartment, we move in on the 25th
<3 The Dark Tower
I really hope the movie ends up doing it justice...

Nice to see Psylocke finally put some old demons to rest.

Got this for only £10 (

I lost this book among with many others when I broke up with an ex-boyfriend, and I've always meant to buy it again as it's one of my all time favourite books. Utterly brilliant writing and such great humour. Highly recommended to all.

I've become a HUGE Silversun Pickups fan since first playing Lazy Eye on Rock Band. I <3 this album. I've worn out my guitar playing Panic Switch and It's Nice To Know You Work Alone.

I f***ing love that cd. So much. The Royal We (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPzU1Uz8ujw) is one of the greatest songs ever.
EDIT: In other news, my cousin called me today and said that he found his old drumset in storage and didn't have room for it at his new house so he gave em to me :)
All basic, non name brand (as far as I can tell) equipment. Hi-Hat, Snare, Hi Tom, Low Tom, Bass, and ride cymbal, along with all equipment for it and a drum throne too. My neighbors aren't going to like us much longer oh well.
Thing 1. JOB! I got a summer internship at RR Donnelly in the IT / Corporate Systems department. Pretty stoked, actually.
Thing 2. Half-Life 2 on Mac! I know it's 5.5 years behind the PC version but I'm looking forward to playing it through again
*I'm not sure if I will bother with SG:U yet. Is it any good?SG:U is so much better than SG:A I cannot even describe. It had a bit of an uneven start, but at _least_ watch the entire first season. I freaking love this series.
SGU is the Stargate equivalent of Caprica. I've watched the season, but only really interesting character is Dr. Rush. Most of the other character are cardboard cutouts. :/
VGT: The novel Hunger (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunger_(novel)), by Knut Hamsun.
As if going to Renn faire wasn't already enough, I called into one of the Tahoe Basin's local radio stations at an opportune moment and won TWO tickets for free. So I might go 2 days in a row if I can't find someone to go with. Here I come, Valhalla.
Later, Peace out.
Ordered a couple more books...

Thought I'd see what all the fuss is about. If I like it, I'll buy the rest. (looking forward to the film, the trailer is great)

Following on from A Short History of Nearly Everything, this book talks about the ordinary things in our houses and how they came to be. Really looking forward to reading it.

Oh my goodness that's sexxxxy.
You yanks have quite a different idea of what makes a good looking car...
Not I.
While I applaud the whole "hybridness" of the vehicle... it scores very low on the styling charts in my book.
Make a hybrid that looks like a Lotus Exige or an Audi R8 on the other hand... I'm soooo there.

prius owners unite! :thmbup1:
i have a rebel alliance sticker on the side window of my car, and an imperial symbol on the other side. on my dashboard i have a golden mushroom plushie, to give myself the illusion that sometimes i can go super turbo fast in it XD
While I applaud the whole "hybridness" of the vehicle... it scores very low on the styling charts in my book.
Despite the "hybridness" of the Prius I understand that due to the manufacturing processes it actually has a lifetime carbon footprint higher than a Range Rover.
There's that too... but manufacturers do have to start somewhere if there's no existing support infrastructure in place. I don't fault the attempt.
Hydrogen fuel-cell cars will probably eventually be the norm... but still enough of a ways off that something should be attempted in the interim.
I'd probably go TDI myself rather than Hybrid... but I might be the wrong person to ask anyway,.. since I really want a Lancer Evolution X as my next car,.. so obviously fuel-economy and the environment are exactly high up on my car-buying priorities list.

Well I'm not a good standard to judge this by. I get excited over ranch trucks too; especially if they're about 40+ years old. And Jeeps, muscle cars, Escalades.... :p
Got a new bike today, and it's sooooo fabulous. Check it out!

nice bike jedi lady
Hell yes, it's nice, Maximus Dath. The only awkward thing about it is the lack of brakes on the handle bars; it's got the old fashioned pedal brakes, but it's worth it for the uber classiness that is the Electra Butterfly Cruiser. :D
Not shown in the picture is a quick release wicker basket with a handle for easy toting of all of my tiny manslaves, whiskey, and chlorophyll water and other essentials. :indif:

This is (very similarly) what I drive every day. Gets like 14 MPG and goes from 0 to 60 whenever it feels like it.
Exterior paint job is total garbage, but the interior is still clean (yay).
Oh, and it's got just under 250,000 miles on it, and has driven from Seattle to Los Angeles and back probably 12 times.
chuck norris can squeeze orange juice out of a banana :).....
trujedi that makes no sense....
