What to get for birthday?

So mommy sent an email asking for a list. I'm going to put one of two things on the list:

1. Xbox + Halo 2 + Live Starter Kit

2. Valentine One

Any thoughts?

Update: I decided on the Xbox. I'm gonna borrow a V1 from my buddy Joel some weekend to check it out and see how well I get along with it. In the meantime, I'ma start leveling up on Live. When I have a gamertag, I'll post it and everyone can buddy up with me. Thanks for input, everyone.

Liberals: feel better!

Remember Get Your War On, the comic I used to link to?

It came back, and I had completely missed it! There was some great election commentary and in the wake of the Republican victory, David Rees (the artist) hasn't given up, and he's a good source for some of the better-written leftist propaganda.

So. If you hated Bush, and maybe even still do, then go give this a read: it'll cheer you up, I promise.

Turkey Day in A-Town

Sorry for not posting this earlier, but the Blogger backoffice was being kinda slow when I last decided to do it.

Anyhoo: in continuation of the last comment thread, many of us will be home in A-town for Thanksgiving week(end). I, for one, will be home Tuesday 11/23 to Sunday 11/28. Post your details and exchanges and perhaps we'll get a party going (especially if Thomas is in town =p).
