I'll bet there is already a green-lit movie by the same name.

Yeah, fuck the public sector. So many people out having leisurely lunches with their families as I grabbed something from the deli.

I wasn't implying they'd go bankrupt, but isn't there usually a bit of a dip when a company's CEO/President steps down? I realize Apple is making big money these days, but without Jobs they sucked in the recent past. And not to discount what they're currently doing, but their computer division suck...

Woah. I lazily hotlinked to the ESPN site.

They switched Ben and Polamalu's heads at some point. Ben's head looks waaaay worse.

All of the sporting sites that I go to are talking about how good the Ravens v Steelers game and rivalry is. If you are getting your sporting news from like CNN or some other general news site, what are you expecting? http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2011/0113/nfl_gladiators_576.jpg ESPN even made a cool...

Shit. We've had that much snow in late May and April some years, easy. I bet your city of less than 5 million people has more than 0 snow plows. Edit: 8 salt trucks, still no snow plows. Not my fault y'all's infrastructure plan sucks. I've got an A/C unit. I need to turn it on maybe half a dozen ti...

Yeah, I've had a front row view of the idiots. I know how to drive in snow, I feel comfortable doing it, and have done so on a lot of occasions in Western N.C. But the people on the streets terrify me. Yesterday, I walked to the office to pick up some files, and saw a guy slide into a red light, th...

We had a rare winter "event" in Atlanta: 4-6 inches of snow, followed by a nice hard layer of sleet. I'm sure the northerners out there think it's not a big deal, but in Atlanta... it's up there with one of those biblical events that wipes out civilizations. Atlanta lacks any infrastructu...

I scored enough points that if Vick hadn't have gone off and knocked me out last weekend, I would have gotten 1st. Typical.

Did you play the first one? If not that one was awesome and a bunch of choices you make carry over to 2. Mass Effect one was a great game. It is only $10 on steam.
Done. And now I have enough games to last me halfway through 2011.

So, what are the hot ones? The big sale looks like it will go until Jan 2, so wait and shop the daily deals, as already discounted stuff may get super low cut for the daily deal. Today: Battlefield Bad Company 2 stands out. Great multiplayer, and for less than 7 bucks? I bought it at 20 and didn't ...

Finished this up, and it was great. It really makes Fallout seems more cheesy than it already is. It is certainly worth a purchase if you can find it on sale through Steam during the Holiday sale. If you do, be sure to run it on the easier "Ranger" difficulty. There are 5 different diffic...
