Happy Halloween!
October 31st, 2007 by Jeff
Happy Halloween! I hope you all have a safe night and score a lot of awesome candy. As for me, well, Tina is taking Genny back to Aurora/Hampton to trick or treat with our families so I’m on my own. In true lazy slob style, I’ll probably just microwave my dinner. I’ve got some Jalepeno Steak & Cheese Hot Pockets that have been calling my name for weeks; hope they’re not freezer-burned…
I don’t have too much in the hopper. I’m gonna go to a couple places to look for some dual-layer blank DVDs. Those boogers are hard to find! I should just order them online but whatever, this’ll give me a little something to do. If you know a place here in Lincoln to get dual-layer blanks, please leave me a comment.
Then I’ll try to put a few more hours into Manhunt 2, which I started playing late last night. I’ve got that infamously leaked Playstation 2 version that’s supposed to be totally uncut. I don’t feel too conflicted about playing the leak because I definitely intended to buy it, and still may pick it up on Wii some day. I support Manhunt and want it to succeed. I bought the original game twice: once on PS2 and once on Xbox. I want to support this new sequel, but I don’t want to pay for a crippled, watered-down version. I’m frickin’ 27, nobody needs to protect me from violent content in a video game.
And of course, I’ll have to pause the Playstation when South Park comes on. I’m really interested to see where they go with this 3-part arc that’s concluding tonight.

I usually get them at WalMart. The sticky thing is that they usually only come in packs of 3. Best Buy had them the last time I was there. Denver has MicroCenter, which is great because you can get most anything there. If you need those silly thumb screws for your case, or maybe a Molex-to-SATA adaptor, they got it all.
Perhaps there’s a conspiracy about skipping shipments to Lincoln. You know, because they might be used for other things beside “backup purposes.”

Found some at Office Max, but they were Memorex, a brand I’ve had bad luck with before. It’s probably all in my head, but it *seems* to me that I’ve made more coasters with Memorex media than with other brands. Oh well, it’s not like I’m doing anything earth-shatteringly important with them.
