So quick bro story cool. I have a friend I work with that is a total Star Wars nerd. Has a couple of costumes including a full on Darth Vader gimmick. They do a bunch of charity events, blah blah blah. Got the call from the bigs because they were doing a Star Wars day for the Rays at Tropicana Field. He got selected to throw out the first pitch. Awesome right? I tell him I will help him practice so he does not blow it. I bring my glove in for a week or so before the big day and he keeps blowing it off. I told him it may not be as easy as he thinks with 20K people and wearing a helmet and gloves. Then I tell him if he is not going to practice to just chuck the ball in the stands and at least that will be funny and he will make national news, sportscenter, etc.

Now fast forward to last Sunday. Here is a link where you can see a few different videos including him making Sportscenter for all the wrong reasons.

Yeah I was going to order it now. I thought BausAuto would've included the mesh for it but apparently not because ARCH was advertising that they sell all their bumpers with mesh. I'll just have to order it and put it in.

On a less awesome note, had a rodent under my bed last night so I freaked out, left the house for an hour, came back with my rottweiler and we searched the house and did not find anything. So I went to my best friend's house to sleep, accidentally stayed up until 2:30am and we killed 2 bottles of wine lol. Now I'm exhausted. What was I thinking buying a 90 year old house

There really isnt much for laptop drives. WD Black drives are nice, you can also look at the Seagate Hybrid drives.

Cannot stress that enough. Do not get the WD Scorpio Blue (laptop hdd) or Caviar Green (desktop hdd) drives. Those are teh really suxors. Stick with Scorpio Black (laptop) or Caviar Black (desktop) drives, or even go for the Velociraptor drives (desktop).

That being said, I say you should spring a bit and go for an SSD for the laptop if you can take the capacity hit. You can get an OCZ Agility 3 240GB drive for less than $175. A little more will get you Intel drives or OCZ Vertex ones.

Put a bunch of radiator fluid put (don't let rottie get it) apparently it tastes like (might have changed the formula) kool aid and is pretty damn poisonous. Causes dehydration so they o looking for water as don't die under the house. Again keep away from the dog.

Anyway happy Tuesday peeps.
