Definitely! He must have been scared ****less when he went in the game but did well under the circumstances.

I think the Aggie bonfire might be appropriate.

It was a fun game.

I am tempted to get the Magic Mouse. I keep going back and forth between another Logitech Performance MX (have one in the office and love it) and a MM for home.

Cool!

I have been using PlayOn to stream Hulu to the tv for about a year now (first through Popcorn Hour A-110 and now through the PS3). Although, it can be a little buggy (have to restart every once in while), with the PS3, it seems to work pretty well and seems to be getting better. It was buggier with the Popcorn Hour. It is annoying that it only runs on Windows since this means I also have to run it on my partner's laptop (which he doesn't keep running all the time). The good thing is that you can try it out for free for 14 days. I'll have to look into Plex.

Yum

Sorry to hear that Colin!

Damn you Jin.

I like how they have a picture of an HP convertible tablet that has been for (probably) at least 5 years.

Tried to get one the 6mdh from ebags with bing a few days ago (in black). I couldn't seem to make the bag show up in my shopping cart so I gave up and now I am also kicking myself for not trying harder. NM: I see that it is working now. I'm an idiot... but yeah, no more black.

Jury duty.

Ooooh, I like the MWB better than Carolina Blue.

Agree. After listening to the JH13 out of the Sansa Clip+ for about 10 days during my holiday travels, I sat down today with the home setup (ECD-1 and GS-1) for some time. After many cds I was thinking that maybe I should get rid of this excess clutter (WA5-LE, HD800, HD650, AD2000, ... ). In the end, I realized that I would just end up buying more clutter to fill its space.... but, yeah, they are much better than I imagined any IEM could possibly be and more.

Spent a lot of time listening to the ECD-1 > GS-1 > JH13 setup, so good. I went for a long walk (great weather here), took some pictures along the way. Then, I dusted off the soldering setup and worked on the SOHA II that has been in the works for, what seems, a lifetime. It felt good. Finished off the day with some spaghetti and red wine. Now to watch a movie and maybe have an after dinner drink. Nice day overall.

Cheers!

You shouldn't pay CA sales tax from amazon or bhphoto though, right? Glad I got the amazon deal before it was too late. Perhaps they stopped it because they ran out of lenses. I love amazon prime free 2-day shipping!

I just got this exact setup from amazon for $1289.94 (instant $250 off when you buy both the D90 body and the 18-200 VR lens). I thought the amazon deal was supposed to last until Jan 2 but they don't seem to have it on the website anymore. As for the camera and lens, I just got mine in the mail yesterday and have been shooting away. It is great!

What kind of Brie? I used to get St. Andre Brie all the time but lately I've been getting Fromager d'Affinois instead - excellent creaminess.

Not the poor man's 50D!?!?

Nice

Mike: The Canon 7D looks like a super sweet camera. I better spend some time before choosing a bag. Thanks Nate for the advice about the diffuser.

I bought my partner a Kindle 2 (non-DX) for Christmas and as Wayne said above, I have a DX and I love it. Using the non-DX version, I am definitely glad I got the DX. I like using the larger font (2nd to largest) since I often read with a book light in the dark. Using a large font on the Kindle 2 means changing pages more often. I don't find the Kindle DX to be too heavy. Of course, if I carry the Kindle DX, I pretty much always carry it in my backpack along with my Macbook Pro so the Kindle doesn't really add much weight. Most of the time, I use my Kindle at home though. I could imagine if one were reading on the subway, the Kindle 2 would be much better than the Kindle DX. One thing that I use my Kindle DX is for reading/searching through math papers in PDF format. In my mind, it would be very difficult to do this on the non-DX version because the screen would be too small. I also really like the auto-rotation on the DX but could live without it.

Nikon D90 (body only) Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II AF-S DX Lens 8GB SD card (30MB/s) B+W UV filter I will probably get the SB-600 flash at some point. Just trying to give my bank account a little bit of relief after the holidays. Also, need to get a bag. I have an old camera bag that will probably work for now but think I would like a toploader. Thinking about the Lowepro Toploader Pro 70 AW (I think the 65 is perhaps too small) or the Lowepro Topload Zoom 2.

Pretty mellow day with the in-laws. Slept in, returned gifts, and installed Ubuntu eee on my father-in-law's very slow Asus eee netbook (much faster than XP so far).
