Boom, Head Shot!

I can dance all day! I can dance all day!!!

I know I bitched about TF2 not getting released on time earlier, but it's such an awesome game, that all is forgiven.

Hometown

It's my hometown - in an episode of Prison Break.

To Kill

It's only the second episode, and the kids have already started killing...

Kid Nation

What do you get when you put 40 kids, aged eight to fifteen, together and isolate them from adults? No, it's not Lord of the Flies, it's CBS's new reality show, Kid Nation. Like some twisted summer camp with no consolers, these kids are left to survive on their own in a small ghost town in the middle of nowhere.

Diploma

It came in the mail sandwiched between two pieces of cardboard. I guess I need to buy a proper frame now.

Hey Valve, Where's Team Fortress 2?

It's 10:56PM on the west coast right now - and still no Team Fortress 2. Valve has about an hour left to keep their promise of a September 17 beta release.

Update: It's now 12:00AM on the 18th. Valve has officially missed their deadline. I gave them my money for nothing!

Breakfast - Gummified

Found in the Snoqualmie Falls gift shop.

Price of Early Adoption is $200

I set up my Twitter account to get SMS updates from MacRumors for today's Apple keynote.

So around 10:30 in the morning I start to get text messages about new iPods across the board. New iPod Shuffle, iPod Nano, and iPod Classic. That's cool I thought, but my high-tech multi-touch iPhone has them all beat.

Then I start getting text messages about the iPod Touch. I get a little nervous, it's basically the iPhone without the phone (so all the cool stuff). When I get the text message with the price, I feel sick. At $299 for the 8GB, it's half the price of my 8GB iPhone. Little do I know the worst is yet to come.

At 11:53am, I get the text message telling me that Apple has officially screwed me and all the other early adopters over. The $599 piece of gadgetry I'm holding dropped in value to $399 in a matter of seconds.

I knew that the iPhone would eventually have a price drop, but I never imagined it to be this soon or this much! I feel like I've been conned - cheated out of $200 by Apple.
