Posted: Wed Dec 22, 2004 11:23 pm Post subject: Ok, what did you GET for Xmas? |
|
|
Here's what I want, please feel free to P.M. me for my address to ship stuff to.
A Toshiba 7" portable DVD player - so I can watch the new Return of the King DVDs while I'm driving.
A Canon PowerShot digital camera - so I can make guest comics for ALP. I don't have any action figures, but I'm not against sewing Alien and Predator costumes for me and my actor friends to wear. You'll want to adopt my style. You'll see.
Lindsay Lohan's album - because yes, it's worth listening to someone's audio CD if she's hot.
The Book of Virtues for Young People - because I will need some moral guidance after listening to Lindsay's album.
What does everyone else want?

Ok so what a big surprise, I didn't get anything I wanted. I did get a new flat-panel monitor for my computer, and seriously the best thing about it is that it makes a huge difference when reading ALP! I never thought about it but this comic has so much more going on visually than other comics and it really comes through on a good monitor. Try it.
My college buddy also got me a bottle of Stoli. Pretty sweet gift, but then he proceeded to down like 3/4 of it and I had to drive the fucker home. |

All I got for Christmas was my two front teeth. Although being Jewish, that's more than I should have gotten.
I did get a watch, some cash, an Opus book, and some more cash.
Next year should be fun, as the first night of Hannukah is on Christmas. |

The Razor's Edge and... uh... shit. I forget, heh. The Razor's Edge is a World War 2 movie with Bill Murray in a serious main role.

My current computer is was assembled (by me) and works quite nicely though it is not the nicest thing ever. It has been in the same case over a series of 7 years and was never refitted entirely, just slowly piece by piece of time as old pieces becamse horribly outdated.
1.6 Ghz Athlon processor
80G SeaGate Hard drive(master)
20G (slave)
Geforce mx 4
Sound Blaster 2 sound card
generic off the shelf Ethernet card
350 mhz Sparkle power supply
Asus X series motherboard
512mbs of RAM (Roswell brand)
generic floppy drive (ancient)
50x CD drive.
My cd burner broke, long story.
Mind you I didn't get this for christmas. This has been just what I've been cobbling together over the years. _________________ Never lose faith, even if faith has lost you - Neo Nexus |

| That's pretty nice, you would be able to play 99% of the games out on the market. Your CPU power is slightly below average, but everything else is damn nice anyways. |
