The Water Cooler

Had the RROD and did the X-Clamp repair. It lives again!!! It took less than an hour to do the repair. Now I have two working Xbox 360s. Kinda fun to do too. I may buy some dead ones on ebay and fix them and resell as X-Clamp repaired.

The past two days have brought some pretty big Madden 2010 news. http://www.virtualsportsnetwork.com/2009/0...lease-date-set/ First of all, the Madden 2010 site launched and a release date of Friday, August 14th. Looks like it's going to be a big 3-day weekend for a bunch of people. The launch site for Madden 2010 is releasing 2 players each week over the course of 5 weeks as "candidates" for the Madden 2010. The first two people they showed were Ed Reed & Adrian Peterson. Anthony Stevenson (twitter.com/eanthony) said that the next 2 candidates are from the NFC East and AFC North. My guess was Brandon Jacobs and James Harrison. Definitely looking forward to…

Bought a HD TV little over a year ago and never got around to subscribing to HD programming and buying proper cables for it. I know, waste of time, but hey, I procratinate all the time. If I had only knew what I was missing I would have been a bit more proactive. The technician just finished the job, got Dish network HD package including NFL Network, ESPN channels, and Big 10 channels (along with many others) all in HD. Watching the replay of the Bears Cleveland game as I type. What a difference. I swear I can see every blade of grass on the field, LOL.

Okay well I have a myspace, and I'm tired of having this same Hester one up here since 2006. So, if you guys can go here, then type in any name, scroll to "request design", then request a Forte layout. Switch it up occasionally- don't type in the same manner as you usually do: sometimes use all caps, sometimes type normal, and sometimes with all lower case with a bunch of !!!!!!!!!!!'s. Thanks for your help! 1 a day if you can sneak it in would be nice.

Obama outscores McCain in veterans’ group’s report card By Roxana Tiron Posted: 10/07/08 Barack Obama outscored his Republican rival, Vietnam veteran John McCain, in a report card issued by an influential, nonpartisan veterans’ group. The Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA’s) Action Fund gave the Arizona senator a “D” as part of its congressional report card. Obama received a “B” from the group. McCain is among three senators who scored a “D.” Only one senator, Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), received an “F.” McCain — a former Navy officer and prisoner of war — and Obama, who has not served, have made military and veterans’ issues central t…

From: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/14/m...a_n_134595.html I can't wait to hear them explain this one! Here they're making such a big deal out of Obama's middle name when all this time, right there on the Straight Talk Express... A Saddam Hussein sympathizer! Here's the story:

Tracking number only states that shipping information is received. $232.50 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=160292499102 As of yet I don't have any Xbox 360 games other than the obvious Madden 09 any good game suggestions? Also will I be able to play my old Xbox games on the new system?

Don't believe me, look at the polls of undecided voters! Tonight CBS, CNN and others basically gave this one to Obama by a 2 to 1 margin. About a third in each case said tie with about 50 something to 60 percent saying Obama. McCain gets about 30 percent. The knockout blow for Obama was when HE brought up the Ayers issue and used it to show how feeble it is as a make believe talking point for Repugs. He forced McCain to say he didn't care about some "has-been terrorist". OK, I guess Johnny can pull something like 100% of his ads running at this point since he just admitted it was a bunch of bullshit. Game over. Unless McCain and Bush find a way to orchestr…

A Canadian comedy duo called The Masked Avengers from CKOI 96.9 FM in Montreal, Quebec pranked Sarah Palin, convincing her (and her team) they were receiving a call from French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Dan Quayle wasn't even this gullible!
