Woot, had a little gathering on the weekend to celebrate my awesomeness.
Much meat and bbq fun was had on saturday. Big thanks to all my friends.

And the reason for that is that I got a PS2 slimline!
Oh yeah...I guess everyone got sick of hearing me boast & act superior talk about how I had never owned a console. And I even got futurama for it as well.

heh heh :)

Unfortunately I didn't have a memory card, a problem that was easily rectified on Sunday. [Randomly ran into Azusachan as well, hooray!].
Also picked up We (heart) Katamari & GTA:San Andreas as well. I should be set for a while, if I could get the console out of the frigging box!
I cracked it open and got scared after reading the manual.

DON'T PUT ON THE FLOOR
DON'T PUT NEAR MAGNETIC SOURCES AND SPEAKERS
ENSURE THAT ONLY PROPER NETWORK CABLES ARE USED
THE FIFTY BAJILLION SETTINGS FOR DVD PLAYBACK
THE CONFUSING DVD MENU SYSTEM
etc etc...

Since both tv's are fairly heavily used in my house, I'm thinking about playing my ps2 via my monitor. It's either that or get a tv for my room. So can anyone help me with this? What do I need to do? Any tips/help/websites would be great.

Siuol

2. Last incoming call on your phone?
Mum

Really don't care, but she's sure showing off her southern roots with her mum phase now...
oh yeah...stereotypes are fun :P

Nope. Well...maybe....once...when I was younger and more foolish....and my mates were there...and trying to impress a girl ;) rofl

Ohhh...tough one. I'll cheat and say comic instead. It's "True Story Swear to God" by Tom Beland. I highly urge everyone to read it.
But if it's comic strip you want, I guess you can't go psat Calvin and Hobbes, hailed as one of the best comic strips ever, though personally I completely missed out on it when it was being published.
