Surely you jest! O-town weather's been nothing so far

(no, I'm not counting on it to stay that way... just saying though!)

I got a bottle of Wild Turkey bourbon, of which this forum will probably see the results tonight or tomorrow and New Years. Also got thumb picks for my bass, a Chiefs hat, and Chiefs tickets. Opening two more presents tonight, when my brother gets here from Japan.

And, of course, OT.

If you still have your PS2, you might want to read this: http://arstechnica.com/articles/paedia/hardware/ps2.ars

Using that, I fixed my PS2 with no problems. Took maybe an hour. If you get it working, you could at least sell your old PS2 and get yourself another present.

If you need something HOT - the less, the better

Well, so far the best thing I got out of relatives is a promise to help me get a goddamn proper office chair for my computer

Still waiting for New Year's, though. See if they can surprise me.

I need a chair too, this thing is crap. But there's so little room. Like half a foot behind me is my TV, facing away from my computer toward my bed. And then there's about a foot between my TV and my bed. I don't think I have room for a good office chair.

What do you sit on, a stool?

The chair I got wasn't very big, has nice padding, swivles, and even has all its wheels. I love it.

A kitchen chair, recently upgraded to a slightly-padded kitchen chair with armrests which should probably be re-titled 'armhurts'

And I've been doing this for years. My poor back.
