Jal Scrapes Into 2nd Place!

I see Jal's last achievement took him above s u d 0 in the ranks. I have adjusted the order accordianly.

Time to chip in, fellahs.


So you end up at Panasonic HQ and they have a 360 there hooked up to a Big Fuck-Off Telly, and why not?

I love the comments in the linked thread.

"Big ass TV + XBox 360 = still a losing system."

"He'd have used a PS3, but they needed 3 games to test with."

"DUDE!!! STEP BACK!!! FFS!!!"

"As someone has already mentioned, please step away from the TV, it will get quite hot and you will puke your brains out."

I can't imagine how you'd lift one of those bad boys onto the wall mounts. What a rokin system.

One, two, miss a few, ninety nine, one hundred.


Brethren, 'sup?

But hark, you say, 'tis Ruut, and he is getting ready to lay down another scintillating host post on us. I shall put aside my other distractions and close three out of five IM sessions to listen, for it is sure to be fun.

Not so fast, this ain't gonna be like those other posts, this is different. I can host, and fo' sho' I is winding up for a full on bagsie, but not this week. I propose instead, my chums, a time shift type thing where we wait a week to get the Fi Club schedule back on track as it is laid down in Jaz's Red Filofax Of All Things Time Related. July's weekly shenanigans made us go out of sync, and it is time to put things right, time to even the balance of the 'Fi.

So I roll a D20 and wait for a reply. No reply means you're cool mit dis shii and I can go ahead and bagsie for a week on Friday (August 31st). Fukkit, reply anyway, we aint heard from some of you doods in a while and we like to rip the pee out of your spellink.

Thinkabout it: a week later means your carpal tunnel can heal and you can at least have a fighting chance at the Track N Field.

++ UPDATE!++
h i r 0 san is going to do his thing. See the comments for more deets. Do it.

This is surely a job for Eldon...


As much as I love GH and GH2, I reckon that sometimes the little ukulele-sized guitar controller is kind of embarrassing.

A perfect excuse to break out a massive tub of our favourite Danish snap together block system and build a gee-tar big enough for a normal regular sized human being.

Rejoice! A guide to building one out of Lego has been created by the boffins on the intarnets.

Awesome, how cool. Now who do we know who's a whiz with Lego?

Arthur Dent tried this already.

CheapyD over at Cheap Ass Gamer uses the magic of moving pictures to show us how to fix a RROD 360 with a towel. Yes.

God damn, that's a big TV.

Housekeeping Update


After a great sesh at Cookie's on Friday, I took some time out on Saturday to come in here to post a "great 'Fi Club, man, thanks fo' hosting" comment, and while I was here decided to open the windows and let some fresh air in, pick up Munchk's socks and clear out all H i r 0 's 'ahem' magazines. You boys.

While I was in the dashboard I looked at some of the Blogger Buzz and saw how things were progressing over at the beta labs and decided to load up the kart with some goodies and give the ol' blog a bit of an overhaul. It's no probs, like. It's my job.

Now I know she look hot on the surface man, but this blog, she purring like the keeten under the hood now, ese. I migrated us over to the new layout system and bolted a few plug ins over on the sidebar. Take a look, I did a pretty good job, IIDSSM. Some oldies have been improved, some newbies been added -- you like it, neh?

I'm Free...

Hi All.
I don't know if anyone's up for it, but I'll host this Fi'Day.
Let me know if your interested or if you'd rather be doing something else.
Usual time.
Or would you all rather play from home?
:)
