Well my computer is fubar, it comitted seppuku earlier this week.
So no new pictures from me for a while. I'm taking lots of pictures though, just ain't got nothing to load them up to.

Just thought I'd leave that note if people were wondering. Only net time I get is at work (like now :p )

Thanks.

Just didn't want people to wonder why I suddently went quiet.

What really is annoying is that I got $400 worth of 25th stuff yesterday... I've already gone nuts with the camera, so I'll probably have enough pictures to post for several months in the future when I get back online at home.

Four hundred! I had to stop buying because I used forty dollar this month!
What did you buy?

motherboard is fried.

I think I got just about everything released so far for the 25th, except the ninjapack with snake eyes (green pants) and Cobra Nightwatch pack, and the Rattler and Conquest and best of dvd pack. (+ new releases not known to me)

So wave 10-11, all the vehicles, all the comic packs, condition packs and dvd packs.

:D

Investing in a lot of small new stuff - thank heavens for having a friend who works at the biggest computer store here.

Well this is just fantastic
All the hardware has been replaced - but still no-go. Windows (every version) nor linux wants to be installed...

*sigh*
