Northern California is nice.  Or you could move to where Ivan is.  That's a nice part of SoCal.

You didn't get hooked on Kentucky did you xolik?

You never did say where you went to.  The suspense is killing me.

But if you came to Louisville and didn't tell me I might have to try to kick your ass.

No, I didn't get hooked on Kentucky.  :lol: My brother may have driven us through Lousiville while I was sleeping, though. Can't be sure. As soon as I get the digi-pics I'll post them.

I'm going to be moving to Nevada. Either Henderson or Las Vegas proper. I've always wanted to live out there, and it's where my brother used to live. I've got about 6-8 more months left on the lease, though. Should be plenty of time to save up some scratch and find another job.

My boss got frustrated after a phone conversation and asked out loud in his office, which is across from mine, "Why must I be surrounded by idiots?" to which I shouted back "Birds of a feather..." which for some reason made him laugh.

I don't think he understands I just insulted him.   :lol:

It always makes it funnier when they don't get it.

That's one reason why I love this place.

Some people can laugh at themselves.

HP makes it way too hard to get a drive replaced. The light is solid red, it's making a clicking sound, the souls of the damned are escaping out of it....just send me a replacement already!  :x

I cancelled my World of Warcraft account today. My guild leaders are bitching that people are taking too many bathroom breaks during our 4+ hour raids and I just know poopsocks are going to be mandatory soon. Fuck that.  :|

When I came home tonight, there was a strange box waiting for me by my mailbox. This was unexpected to say the least since I don't remember ordering anything at all. It was very very heavy and from, of all places, the Council for American-Islamic Relations. So took it in and showed it to Ping Ping who ordered me to open in the other room.  :roll: It turns out they sent me a hardcover Qur'an! A downright beautiful one at that. Complete in Arabic on one side and English on the other. Well, that sent Ping Ping into a tizzy. He starts going off about how he doesn't want it here and to send it back and about how the government and the Muslims now all know where I live and will be watching me. It was cute, actually, seeing him get all worked up like that.

I'm pretty sure I ordered it while I was drunk and surfing the net. I reminded him that I am still a student of religion and if I had no problems reading the teachings of Buddha, then I'll have no problems reading words from the Prophet. I'm still a Christian anyways and anybody who is secure in their faith shouldn't be afraid of alternative viewpoints.

I told him I'm keeping it in the bedroom.  :-D

Neat! Josh had a spoken word version of the Qur'an that sounded like gorgeous poetical lyrics...until one of the tapes was accidentally dubbed over with Soul Coughing for like 15 minutes.

Was the government Ping Ping's only problem, or does he not want it around for other reasons as well?

He doesn't like Muslim anything, I'm pretty sure. He puts up with my religion as long as I don't mention it too much. Some people are just like that.

I was at the University bookstore today buying a stupidly expensive textbook (actually, it wasn't that bad for a textbook, sadly), and the cashier girl was all like "Your total is one thirty, one forty." One thirty one forty? Uh...what?

OH, YOU MEAN ONE THIRTY-ONE FORTY, YOU CRAZY SYNTACTICALLY CHALLENGED COUNTER-CROTCH
