I finally found Blu-Ray & HD-DVD at Blockbuster!

Five of the six local BB stores near me don’t carry either HD format. So, when I found that the Eagan store off of Cliff had both I was a very happy dude.
I currently have a very good deal through blockbuster.com where I get two online rentals, two in store swaps and one coupon for another movie/game all for $5.99. That’s five movies or four movies and a game each month for $6! All in HD goodness 🙂

I bought a pink DS Lite!

Well, for Carolyn anyhow 🙂

I’ve had my DS for a while now and Carolyn would steal it from me from time to time to play good old Mario Bros, Mario Kart, etc. With all the great franchise titles and the game sharing feature we can now play each other in Mario Bros, Tetris, Clubhouse Games, Mario Kart and Bomberman each with only having one cartridge! The other benefit is that Elizabeth will hopefully be able to start dabbling in games for rides up to the cabin this next year.

Carolyn and I used to play against each other all the time when we were dating on the N64.  It brings back some of that fun competition 🙂

Pictures from our annual away Twolves game. This year we went to Memphis…

Only a month late! Brian, Joel and I had a great time. Justin, you were missed! There is alway next year (Joel is thinking Toronto)

Click on any of the following pictures to enter the album. The last is my favorite, too bad it’s blurry 🙁

Old man winter gets my DirecTV

The first time ever for me, snow blocked my signal. I simply wiped it off and I’m back in business watching the Wisonsin vs Ohio State game!
I have friends that won’t get the dish because of rain-outs and this snow problem. Like I said, this is the first time the snow has gotten me. As for rain, it does happen but it’s a good sign for me not to be watching and rather hiding in a sfae place if my dish goes out. For me, DTV beats Comcast any day 🙂

We’ve hit 50k on the Odyssey

Good thing it’s not a Ford or we’d be concerned about the half life 🙂

Get postie to run on WordPress 2.1!

Go through the files in your postie directory located in your plugins directory and look for “!TestWPVersion”.  You should find 3 or 4 files with this.  In the ‘if’ logic comment out the quit() method.  This can be done by putting ‘//’ in front of quit (without quotes).

If you edited every file it should work fine!

Rookie/Randy Foye bobble head night

Brian, Justin, and I had a great time at the game tonight. We even got to hang with Don before the game which was great. The Wolves lost in double OT to the Pistons but Foye continues to show how much of a stud he is. I hope we get to watch him here for years to come!
