Today I am the Manny.
I’m taking care of The Mighty Baby and The Awesome Dog while HoBiscuit goes to work and brings home the bacon. Because I love her so very, very much, I’m even going to prepare dinner for her and have it hot and ready to serve as soon as she walks through the front door.
FYI, I’m making pork chops, corn and spicy potatoes.
In other news that won’t get my ass kicked to Timbuktu, HoBiscuit and I finally bought a TV for the living room. It’s the Samsung LN55A950 and it rocks. Great picture, blackest blacks and almost no judder or pixelation. I couldn’t be happier.
But it gets better.
We also got a home theater PC (HTPC) and hooked it up to the Samsung. I’m still setting it up, but so far it is pretty cool and I’m thrilled to be able to surf the web and do “light” work on a supersized 55″ screen. The only real drawback is that The Mighty Baby screams and cries every time I try to use the HTPC because SHE wants to play with the keyboard! She is soooo going to be the little Geekette when she gets a little older.
And I couldn’t be more proud.
Alright, when’s the COD4 party going to be now that you have two screens to play on? I’ll bring my own 360 if I have to…did you notice that I didn’t say the other 4-letter word?
If it ain’t Halo, it ain’t fun.
I tried to like Halo…I really did but I just think COD4 is just so much better. Not only that, I like Resistance better than Halo but there’s a whole different argument mixed in with that debate. I will say Halo has the better single player storyline going than COD hands-down but the multi-player in COD4 just buries Halo.
