    Apple

    We use iPhones quite a bit for work purposes. And, the phones have to be set up to work with our exchange server. In addition, we have the ability, with the use of an app, to be able to log in and view security cameras at our facility. Well, so much for using iPhones. Maybe we'll get a good trade-in value.
  2. I'm in California. I've been failed by a miserable school system and a state full of hippies and valley girls. I gotta be me. Edit: To keep this from turning into English vs English, I have set down the controller after 230 hours. My break time has been a little bit, so I'm probably going to pick this back up tonight/tomorrow night.
  3. I think this would be cool. I'm excited about it, but too bad this is probably not going to be available for the PS3 until after Memorial Day Weekend when I have time to waste.
  4. Someone wins a dream vacation getaway at work today. Basically, $8k to spend on a vacation plus 2 weeks of paid vacation. Office pools are already going.

      Yep. Wasn't me. Should have expected that, but you still have to have hope.

       

      Now, I need to go find out how much it's going to cost me to go to Switzerland this fall. Fuck, this is going to be expensive.

      Hey hey hang in there, at least you had a chance at it. How come you're going to Switzerland this fall?

      See family. My wife has one cousin in Germany, but we see her often. The cousin in Switzerland she hasn't seen in years and hasn't even met the kids yet.

  5. Did you get them at Amazon? They have the cards for $25 today. 6 left in stock right now.
  6. And the latest gaming reference on The Simpsons was when Bart was on the luxury ship reading over his list of activities to do. The first item listed was "Play XBox 360 using a Playstation controller", which is a good zing at other shows where the actors are pretending to play games.
  7. The browser is not that bad. I know I have experienced lag on page loads, but that is far and few between.
  8. Lifetime Movie Network Friday Pick-A-Flick. "That's exactly what he did to me! He took my baby!". At least it's not a dingo this time.

  9. And it doesn't here either. This is visually a scary flim. The subtitles aren't overpowering on the screen, but the lettering was big enough to not be difficult to read. The dialogue was simple, as well. Nothing too cumbersome and over-writen (like the period pieces you might see on Sundance). But, if you have trouble with subtitles, then that might be a deal breaker. Each person has things they don't like. For me, I never liked watching Friends. Many people loved that show when it was on, but it just wasn't my cup of tea.
  10. On iTunes: Lost Winds reduced to $1.99 (a platformer). That's about half price. And the graphics are pretty darn good.
  11. I am not generally a fan of horror, as it gets so predictable and boring. Plus, they all start to use the same camera tricks. But, there is a movie I am watching right now. The movie is called Victim. It's from 1999. The movie is in subtitles, which only a good movie can pull off. I do not want to spoil one lovely note about this movie, as this one gave me goosebumps and chills. Worth checking out!
  12. Battra, I have not heard great things about the front load washers. I was looking at them myself. Someone told me they tend to hold in odors as they get older, which is why the washing machine cleaner products have become popular. I would investigate that before purchasing, just to be on the safe side. Never hurts to check it out.
  13. He fakes an accent. But, you have to remember, California girls living in beach communities aren't really interested in anything from the outside world, unless it's Cabo or Hawaii, where they can party while still near a beach.
  14. I remember being with my bro-in-law and he would say things to me like, "Okay, I'm going to be the director from Sweden. Just pretend to be my translator.". Man, we had some fun times. My wife would just watch and roll her eyes. But, the women wouldn't walk away. They'd stay and strike up conversation with him as best they could with a "foreigner". But, for him, it is not the pick up lines, he has a lot of charm. Charm is hard to have, as it can easily come off as creepy if you don't have it naturally.

      Ethan, it will give these fools an excuse when I point out how retarded they are. :(

      So... what about all the weapons I've collected to survive the apocalypse?

      So Sinbad won't get another TV show?

  15. You also have to remember that these are the kinds of articles that Denton wants. Anything that can get unique page hits. So, find something that you know the interwebz will react controversially for or against, and watch the arguments start. I would not play into that web of BS. I quit clicking on anything with the "sexism" tag or anything similar. Now, Star Wars shit, I can't fuckin control myself. Must click! Must fuckin' click!

  17. After watching Undercover Boss Abroad, I am now highly interested in sampling some fried chicken from this fine establishment know. as Southern Fried Chicken, a UK brand. Cheeseburgers, fries, and greasy fried chicken in one place! Granted, the stores looked pretty run down, but it is hard to beat a good fried chicken, even if you get sick and die!
  18. I went today to see if maybe one showing of The Avengers wasn't packed like sardines. Nope. So, I watched The Pirates! Band of Misfits (3D). Good viewing! The 3D was blended well into the movie. The premise is fun and is not too serious or overly dark for the very young crowd. I won't ruin it, for those who have not seen it, but love Wallace And Gromit. Well worth a watch. And, the best part, was a teaser for Despicable Me 2! I love the first one, so I'm hyped up. . . for 2013.
  19. Don't forget traffic on the 110. Good thing the Dodgers will be on the road, and the Lakers should be out of the playoffs. Otherwise, the 5 and the 10 and the 110 would be pure hell! It was bad during the Nick Kids Choice Awards, which was the same day as a game. Traffic was bad everywhere.
  20. My sweet, sweet mewbs look better than that.
  21. LucasArts reveals new FPS: BattleFront 3 Online. Valve will give a great interview about new Half Life, and will have a BIG teaser released during E3, but nothing else. New Sonic game that will "re-invent" Sonic, but still doesn't re-invent Sonic. New Angry Birds game stricly for download on consoles. Announce PS4 for holiday season 2013. To have Kinect abilities and will converse with you, asking you questions about your day and what would you like to do next.
  22. I've tried Sweatin' To The Oldies before. That shit is hard! Went for an hour, and then he said, "Okay, now that we are with warmups...". I about passed out from sheer pain. I like to eat the dried fruits, as well as fresh. Dried can keep better in the pantry, though the cost is higher. One thing to do if you are bored, is clean! Wiping down windows, cabinets, doors, moving furniture. Scrubbing the carpet by hand! These are pretty tiring and burn good calories. It also keeps your hands busy.
  23. Bethesda also released a promo video. It really didn't tell you anything about the game, just showing the 3 dragons coming together to form the circle logo. I know they have a year still, but that just left me cold.
  24. I would, but I am still in Skryim, 220 hours into the game. I'm just too enthralled by this to move on. It's damn consuming of my soul! And, I can't even play that right now until the in-laws leave on Sunday. Like Jay-Z, I hate waitin'.
