Haw, TakeMeForCola! One of them "thangs" about life and the ex...

Sounds to me she's trying to be a little too "friendly"... almost as though she never wanted to break up, but ended up holding the short end o' the stick.

Got me bonus today! Woo-hoo!!! Going to buy the boardgame "Ghost Stories" just for a lark!

Well Darech76. I'd say you should buy a 360 by the beginning to middle of 2009 so ahem yes it better to buy a 360 now than in the past.

Sorry for the long Hiatus. Work Cables cuts and many other things ganged up on me

Merry Christmas everyone!

Well Darech76 the cables are still cut and after re routing connections to other cables we got between 25% to 60% of internet. Companies and banks are taking priority for business purposes. We are waiting till beginning to middle of January till we are back at full capacity.

TakemeForCola I was working during christmas eve till late so basically I spend christmas day almost sleeping.

Mmmmm... Paladin77 will be best at explaining his current situation in a nutshell.

For me, I'd strike out on me own if I had the funds... so I have no choice but to stay with my parents for the time being... so restrictive...

My Christmas was spent sleeping and gaming. Damn proud of accomplishing stuff in "Metal Saga". Too bad I can't marry the blonde cowgirl in the game...

As far as I can remember, Boxing Day is supposed to be a day for gift-giving to non-family members. Otherwise it also seems to be the day that Christians celebrate as St. Stephen's Day. I dimly recall that Boxing Day is also supposed to be the day you officially open your Christmas presents (hence all the boxes!). Most likely associated with gift-giving or gift-opening, since it would be weird to celebrate a saint who got stoned to death by giving stuff to others...

Next week I have to work like a dog...

Well Darech76 I will be buried with work for like the next 3 weeks. Lil johnny and baby samantha got their xbox 360 and they don't have a clue on how to use it. And our co vendor is taking a brake after being buried for 3 days due to the cable cut thingie.

TakeMeForCola I have Spirited Away on VCD and I watched on TV its a great movie. As for boxing day I wouldn't have explained it better than darech76.

Will be tough next 3 weeks.

Say... since you work for Microsoft's Xbox360 line, does it mean you can get a staff discount when buying one?

By the way, will Microsoft continue to support ye olde Xbox? Just wondering, since I plan to go hunt for controllers to replace my current one and as a standby in case I ever find another player for games like "Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows".

We are still supporting the old xbox. Although we do encourage customers to get the bakward compatibility upgrade for the 360 as we are phasing out the good ole sturdy V1 (which btw I like more than the new one).
