Like the links? Kick off some conversations about them!

Yeah, it's August ALREADY! Simply crazy how time flies...

Hoping, if the weather cooperates, to go riding in the mountains on Saturday. Sunday will be yard work and a visit to my parents house, haven't seen them in a few weeks. Other than that, trying to continue the cleaning up of various rooms in the house, no doubt rearranging a few things here and there. Hope to get some gaming in, as I want to at least try MSG4.

What's up with you?

QOTD: What are your weekend plans?

Happy Birthday to the following OS'ers!

Whats Up? Craziness hear, the Madden forums are a mess

QOTD: Weekend is yard work, if its not raining and who knows what else.

Links: That bus killing awful, society is so off base, way downhill the last few years.

Thought they used the turtle to sniff out the marijuana, turns out to be dumb luck.

Their ideas for iPhone 2.1 make sense, good program, needs to be tweaked.

Those work phrases are thrown around here all the time.

Struggling to get through the work day. It's been a long week.

QOTD:
It's my first weekend at home since June, so I'm gonna take advantage. Might meet up with some friends tonight and going to my parents on Sunday to help them "craigslist" some old furniture. Other than that, sitting around and playing a bunch of video games, including GTA IV, Rock Band, and the Madden and Facebreaker demos.

QOTD:
This weekend will probably be some more fine tuning with NCAA as i prepare for madden. Also if the weather cooperates with us here in NY, I will be taking the kids swimming.

QOTD: Just working on Saturday, may do some yard work on Sunday.

That PS360 controller is pretty awesome, it's amazing what people can do with their time. I'd much rather have a functional PS3 controller in a 360 shell though, the 360 controller is a much better design.

QOTD: I'm going to the Lake of the Ozarks with a bunch of my friends from back home on Saturday and am staying there until Monday. Should be a blast, I need a good diversion.

There was a Dilbert cartoon? How did I not know this?

And those work quotes are so stupid. I'm so happy I don't have to deal with that crap.

QOTD: My brother-in-law is coming down with his niece. I'm pretty sure that his plan is to have my wife amuse her while we play videogames & drink a few beers...

I also plan to continue watching the chaos that is the Madden forum. At this point, it's like some twisted event you just can't pull yourself away from...
