It's here now, and it's worse. The new one, I mean. Tried an Asus, it has a weird yellow halo around the sides and top of the screen, like improper backlighting or something. Can't tell if it is a defect or just poor quality. Probably both. If you want a good display, don't shop below a certain price threshold, I guess, even on sale. That threshold seems to be about <$200.

One for the former Mormons.

I just packed up my 360 for good on Saturday. Still have like twenty-five bones credit on XBL ... is there a way to gift that money to deserving players in need of old-ass graphical fidelity ...

Yes, pics, except I can't see them until tomorrow when I get a new monitor: stupid cheap things that die after only dozens of months.

My real-life bro just gifted me the PS4 Deluxe Edition. Deliverable release day: free Inquisitoring for the price of nada. What a pal. There is something to be said for sharing the same womb on occasion, although not at the same time. Thank god, too, my vehicle registration is due on the 20th. Now I get to play in Ferelden and drive in the real world concurrently, though not simultaneously.

Oh, those times when friends live up to their reputation. Turned 42 on Sunday, celebrated today with BFF, BFF's wife and child, expertly crafted Moscow Mules, filet mignon, asparagus spears, sweet potatoes. Somehow they 3D-printed a brand new human baby, too.

I was going to ask why my monitor is phasing red on the right side, since a search for the problem yielded nothing. Then I read the latest review on Newegg, sure enough, someone else has the "pink of death." Same length of ownership, too. It's a Viewsonic VX2370 IPS

I'm switching to baseball, where the beer flows like wine, and the women flock instinctively like the salmon of Capistrano.

Trekker. It's Trekker to the cognoscente.

Cleaned the balls out of my place. Cut up all the empty cardboard boxes that were reproducing on their own in the darkness, thanks to a compulsion to save original packaging. Moved the fridge and the oven and vacuumed underneath--found only dust and one Cocoa Puff. Dusted and Dysoned everything else, all in advance of today's incoming nerd care package: a Punisher seatbelt belt, Wonder Woman throw blanket, a G.I. Joe shirt printed with the Arashikage symbol, and a gargantuan 20oz Wonder Woman coffee mug. The She-Hulk shirt I wanted was sold-out.

Do not play as a Wild Mage. You'd think an extra spell per level is worth the trouble, but, it isn't. You will never copy a scroll to your spellbook on the first or second try, and the "small" chance of any spell going wild feels more like "large." Monks haul ass. It's like they come with Boots of Speed, which is good for putting the knuckles of fury to a spell-caster. Haven't played this class since whenever the first IE game that had it. There are some superbly entertaining character voice sets. I think they're original, but I chuckle every time I select my female thief: "You are annoying me on sooo many levels right now."

The mid-term campaign advertising war is making TV impossible to watch, but the new Elementary was good. Watson feels like the lead character, and Sherlock's new protege character seemed weird and weak at first, but she has good potential.

Same, I chose some classes I've never played. And all evil alignments. We'll see how tough that first ogre is now.

Score. Target exclusive, exceedingly difficult to get, available again on Target's ebay page for a few more minutes.

The Dog is Beaming it to my hard drive right now. Although Wasteland 2 has been fun lately, might have to wait to play IWD. Who am I kidding, I'll make a party tonight, boo yah.

I did a serious doubletake when I opened up this page and saw this. I had to look up what the hell was going on. I live in one of those cities, my brother lives in another. The TT Circuit at Assen is a favorite among motorcycle racing enthusiasts, I'm told. Have always wanted to visit.

She is quite nice. And seeing Star-Lord as Andy Dwyer ... amazing transformation.

No Black Widow solo movie ... first they cancel She-Hulk in the comics, now Natasha is out in the cold, of Siberia, probably. No, actually she looks to have a big role in Age of Ultron. And it appears Scarlet Witch is gonna mess with some Avengers' hearts and minds, plus a big battle in South Africa, Bruce, looks like they're coming your way.

I wish the delay need not have happened in my time, said the backer. So do I, said Sawyer, and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

Never heard a funnier goat-screaming-bloody-murder, than at The Prison. I think four different recordings ... there is a human voice actor somewhere who can bring the bleat like no goat's business.

Everyone at Naughty Dog would like to take this opportunity to thank you very little for dismissing their hard work and inspiration.

Absolutists and their lens-covered periscope. Come out of the bunker, it's nice. There's flowers, hot dogs, blue skies ... other people.

There's no law precluding home uniforms at an away game, is there ... NO should just wear the exact jerseys, socks, and straps from last night, victory assured.

Thirty days, man. Clean and free. I thought I'd save about $125 a month, and I have, but the temptation to buy a new wardrobe you know in your heart will never smell like tobacco is too powerful.

Still at the beginning, second full start, first post-second patch. Saved Highpool this time ... christ, the Ag Center mistress and her overpowered guilt gun. I feel awful and impotent. Except for the way better assault rifles dropped after mid-Wasteland encounters. Finally got the hang of the camera ... the whole QWES combo. I'm seeing an uncanny resemblance to Jaheira from this Native American female.
