it's in the genes

i recently received this following email from my mother:

"10 strikes in a row - 280 game!!!!!"

she was referring to wii bowling.

is it any wonder i went through a nasty episode of video game addiction in college?

zeus is dead

it's a sad day in nerd-dom. Zeus is going to join the other greek gods tomorrow morning when the trash man comes and he goes off to pc heaven. i will miss him but i simply cannot justify the floor space he takes up. he hasn't even been plugged in for 3 years. many a college night (and day) was spent putting him together and playing endless games on him. now he has surpassed usefullness and i must put him out of his misery.
