Christmas is upon us...

So Xmas is upon us again, boy how the year has gone. It seems like just last week I was ordering stuff off the Internet for my mom and dad for last years xmas. Well maybe that was since I did that again, and ordered the same stuff. I tell you online ordering is the bomb, I get them Cheese of the month, and Breakfast of the month gifts and they love it. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

I have not decided what I am going to get my self for xmas this year. Well I say that, but I probably know. I am looking at a new camera, it's quite nice, and does HD video. That is pretty slick. But with a new camera comes the wants of a new lens or two, I want to get into Macro photography, and that stuff isn't cheap. This is the LENS I am looking at. Of course with all hobbies comes more spending, and I have a few.. :)

Lets see, dirt bike, Harley, 4-5 computers, ATV, Cameras, Electronic gizmos, etc... I am just a big boy at heart, and what better time than now to be a big 'little' boy? Yes this time of year is fun, (Espically since I don't have to work all week, and can go play...)...and exciting for all.

Oh yea, I think my PS3 got hit by lightning, the same time my main Linux box took a hit and fried the graphics card, that sent me on a wild goose chase, as what better time to put more mem in a machine than when you have to open it up and put in a new vid card. Well it turns out the first 4gig I got was bad, the second 4gig didn't work either, it seems my POS mobo only likes one stick at a time. Now it's time for a new MB :)... New processor, etc... It's how it goes.. My buddy is pushing me to get a new one as well just so we have something to mess with/play with...

The video card install went well, upgraded to a Nvidia 9600GT (Two monitors of course)...It's back to working now, but only with 2 GIG, how do I get along :)...

Enough for now...

And the trackback spam I get on this blog is killing me! It sux, if anyone knows how to eliminate it off b2evolution then let me know!!!
