Mhm.

I'm particularly fond of one:

XKCD is awesome. I'm definitely doing the playpen-balls-from-McDonalds thing someday.

I'm 100% serious.

I still don't get it, you already got a 360, why get another one for 400$ because its "halo 3 edition" and it has HDMI... ;x

Now I can do LAN parties, use my other one for modding 360 games and also use my old one for linux.... also the halo 3 one has a better cooling system

Gettin' a new camera soon.

Specifically a Canon PowerShot S5 IS. I like the features it has over the SLRs, plus the price is great and plenty of good reviews.

This is what you get for banning me, then the site going down. xD

Gas prices dropped a little bit ^_^.

HMC's shutting down was because of lame hosting company trying to squeeze money out of Locke. ;___;
I have most of HMC backed up though, just no reason to put it anywhere. The forums were dead by then, and no one used the hub or the treeview as far as I know. And the QDB hadn't been updated in about a year. Yeah, overall the site was a lot of work and cool stuff I put on it, that really only I used and looked at. =(

I loved you, HMC. At least I have adventure.swf saved...after I realized it wasn't our Xenon that made it.

For the happy, I want Danke to win the emblems contest. Partly because I might get the actual emblem if it goes for what I think it might, but mostly because it looks pretty cool. You can say it was a minor defeat, but I liked it.

EDIT: lolol out Xenon. I meant to say our Xenon.

I can host that on my server if you want, so the awesomeness can be shared with everyone.

In short, I don't have that saved, but want it.

Regardless, the Canon Powershot line has always been a good choice. My dad had the G3 and liked it enough to get the G4 when it came out, got it for work as well. I liked it as well, though I simply liked more customization.

I haven't tried any of the newer powershots like that one though. These were a few years ago.

Well yeah...they're good for an above-average consumer, but I as well prefer the interchangeable lenses.
