    "Apparently"? I guess I have to try harder to make it more obvious. :D

    Why would you need to make it more obvious if it's already apparent? :)

    My best-man shipped out a dozen hoagie rolls to me from South Philly. My goal on Sunday is to make a dozen, big, fat hoagies. I have Hot Capicola, Sappreseta, Hot Pepper Cheese, Italian Dressing, chopped Romaine lettuce, sliced tomatoes, sliced onions and several jalapenos for each one. Yummy!:)

    My new neighbour came asking if I had seen his snake. (One with two eyes, you filthy freaks.... ;))
    Apparently, it broke free and got away.

    A snake with two eyes? Sounds like a simple medical procedure went fubar.

    Well, since he incorrectly greeted us as "Los Angeles" when we were, in fact, in Anaheim (Orange County would have worked too), I don't feel overly compelled to correct the spelling of his name in this case.

    In fact, come to think of it, I believe it was Leonard McKravits who opened last night. :D

    He sure could play a swell tune on that ole gi-tar of his.

    The surgical assistant was sacked 'cause she couldn't tell the difference between a scalpel and a bone-awl.

    Tal, there have been no screams yet...

    Ran the WarriorDash on Saturday. A truly awesome experience. 3.28 grueling miles, lots of obstacles. A LOT of uphill running. Ouch. Still hurting.

    Afterward, pounded a ton of beer, ate a giant turkey leg and then went to the Casino. Normally not a good combo(beer/gambling) but the blackjack dealer got cold and the table exploded.

    Was at the river with an acquaintance this afternoon. Warm, sunny and in Cologne inevitably humid day. We stopped by an ice cream vendor and cued up. She asked me whether I wanted some ice cream too, and I said that I'd rather have a cool beer later. An older gentleman standing in front of us turned around, his eyes lit up, and he asked: "There's beer here?" I pointed him into the right direction, remarking that there's a restaurant, earning me a heartfelt: "Thank you!" That was cute.

    That this happened today is probably no accident since I, just today, also earned the rank of a friend to the Inn League in LotRO. Cheers!

    :beer: ;)

    Company outing. Rule one: attend. Rule two: two sets of dry clothing. Canoeing in a constant drizzle. Criss-crossing in a meander with sat-nav to reach checkpoints with a mission.

    Formed a team with a little boss and a big boss. Big boss in front, slightly lighter than me, the little boss in the middle, and me in the back. I paddled the heck out of the canoe. The paddle is bent. Being a warehouse employee tasked with the heavy stuff helps. Of course you need a team name, and crossfire was the first one to pop up in my head. (looks nice two MSI cyclone 6850's)

    We won 15 minutes ahead of team 2. Big boss was pleased.

    The food and drink afterwards was good. Had one of those so called balance days today.

    Meh. I need to replace a case fan, one of them is audibly out of balance.

    I only hear that one. The others work as they should, quietly.

    That said, I hear my GPU fan, too, but to do something about that is out of the question. Too expensive considering that it still performs well.

    Already replaced 3 this year. I had 3 pretty ones that forgot to pull a decent amount of air in the case. After installing a second GPU and a x4 975 I needed a bit more cooling.

    Installed a Thermaltake spinq vt I found returned to a shop. A missing intel bracket, so I got it for 19 euro. I can see trough it at the processor.
