The tugboat had a bell.
Miss Lucy went to heaven.
The tugboat went to

# Selected soundtrack CD from Grand Theft Auto IV, featuring new material from top artists, only available on this release

Don’t ask me why I need all that crap, it’s the typical “OOH! SHINY!” American mentality…

It’s the same reason I’ll be getting the Metal Gear Solid 4 Limited Edition…

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PS3 in collectible metal box

* 2 Making of Documentaries of MGS4 game - interview with Kojima
* 4 chapters of the graphic novel
* Metal Gear Import Soundtrack CD

Anyway, back to GTAIV; this may be the game that forces me to take a week or to away from World of Warcraft.

That sounds pretty pathetic when it’s typed out…

Alas, between my birthday and doing some work for the in-laws, I went into negotiation with Tiger Direct. Do they allow you to negotiate? No. But it sounded cool. Needless to say, since I finally decided to do it, I didn’t hold back. I’m now typing using my 1999 keyboard and looking at my Samsun SyncMaster 2243BWX 22″ wide screen LCD running at 1680×1050. What does that mean? Well, for starters, it is kind of making me sick. I cannot explain how ridiculously huge this thing is. I’d take a photo with my Canon Elph SD1K, but that would be uber-geek. I’ll just mention it has touch buttons (you know, like there really isn’t a button there, it just senses your finger. Talk to Steve Jobs if you don’t understand. He thinks ‘touchy’ buttons are wicked cool), integrated 2 port USB hub, 90 degree rotation with automatic screen adjust and something about 8000:1 contrast. If I was a geek, I’d understand why I would want 8000:1. I just assumed a bigger number would be more beneficial. That’s also why I like the 3 year warranty. 3 > 1.

This brings me to another topic. Why am I not interested in gadgets, gizmos and other ‘techie’ things? Ah-ha! But, I am! I’m just not interested in spending the money on them. My 2Gb iPod nano….thanks 5/3rd for the free nano. My Canon Elph SD 1000…..thanks over-time pay check. And so the pattern continues.

What will I buy next? Well, this 1999 keyboard has seen its better days along with something that is really gross and sticky that won’t come out from b/w the keys. I’ll bet the cause of the ‘accident’ was due to any one if my 4 children…..oh crap….I just bought a big LCD screen. We had better have a family discussion about the new addition to our house-hold.

And for all you geeks out there: “No dead pixels! W00t! W00t!”

The full album is also available in a variety of formats from MP3 to FLAC, for $5; for $10 (plus shipping) you can get the CDs, plus immediate access to a direct download version.

Looking at creating a Pownce account too, if I knew anyone else that would actually use it… *hint**hint*
