1. I know the feeling I got about 2 hours sleep last night, and that was after drinking that started at 4 and ended at 11, I'm too old for that.

2. Female and cute ? I'm glad to hear she is female, but cute ?? what is she 15 ??

3. yeh knowing there is no WDW trip this year I'm seriously thinking about getting a season pass for Hersheypark, partly because I have 2 events to attend there, and also because the Beautiful woman I had dinner with last night, mentioned that she has a season pass, and goes by herself to do the rides..

1. But at least you know why the rum is gone....

2.

3. Sounds like a plan. plus... makes it easier for you to ply women with Chocolate.

1. actually Dockside Willies, and Hollywood casino both have rather large supplies of Rum, besides I didn't want to chance getting drunk and then having my LAdy friend try to take advantage of me..

Hmmmm...

The ONLY way I can see a being concerned about a lady friend getting you drunk to take advantage of you, Would be if said advantage taking was getting you to pass out, And then setting the island (and rum) on fire while you sleep it off.

she was trying to buy me drinks all night, so I actually told her that she didn't have to get me drunk to take advantage of me, all she had to do was ask and I would surrender..after all a smart knows when not to fight

I've needed a new computer for the past year or so. Although it's been a great long while since I've PC gamed, I think Diablo III may be the excuse to finally order a new system in the next few weeks.

I just finally built myself a new system about 3-4mo ago. It's amazing how inexpensive it can be to put together a decent system....

Ahhh... PC gamers. My desktop bought the farm a few months ago right before I left town for a few months. Came back and figured out it was the hard drive that wasn't letting it boot up. After figuring out the headache of replacing or reformatting that, getting it all set up again, digging out a copy of Windows to install.... it was just worth it to to me to buy a pre-made. Surprisingly, the factory installed graphics card is even good enough. But then, I'm just a casual gamer.

I'm probably dating myself a bit, but my preferred genre of PC game they don't even make anymore. The Ole' Graphic Adventure. Those things were fun.

And the Windows headaches is why I gave up on Windows about 5 years ago. Now my only Windows machine is my work laptop (and even then, i'd prefer to run Linux if they'd let me, especcially since I mostly work on *nix servers).

I used to love playing the Sierra and LucasArts games back in the day. Telltale Games is a newer company that was formed by some of the old LucasArts folks. They now do modern 3D graphic adventures, including the return of Monkey Island and Sam&Max. My favorite stuff from Telltale are the Back to the Future and Walking Dead graphic adventures.

i thought you were dating a girl..?

I haven't played the game, but I can tell you, AJ Locascio, the guy that did the voice of MArty mcfly, is a very talented guy

I have 2 video cards in SLI (overclocked lol) but I'm of the belief if it ain't broke, tweak it LOL

Oh I so wish there were more Linux platform PC games. I benchmark soooo much better then with a bloated, resource hog Windows system!

I think the only graphic adventure game I played was Leisure Suit Larry LOL then Quake came along and I was hooked on FPS

This rain has been ridiculous! And it's not helping with my running schedule and losing the weight I gained on my Disney cruise - LOL.

I've played a few of the TellTale Games. The biggest issue I have with them currently is getting the games to work on my current machine. I don't really like having to install games on my work Laptop. (It gets me funny looks if people see them installed. )

i thought you were dating a girl..?

Soooo many comments I could make.... but SOOOOooooo afraid of where that conversation could end up going with this group.

Depending upon the game, Check out WINE. It runs a lot of popular games pretty well, and assuming you are running NVIDIA cards, you may see a definite improvement over your windoze framerates. Another one of the things that bit me.... silly me forgot about how crappy the ATI support is when I put together my system.

I remember pretty much burning out on FPS games after Doom. There was something so cathartic about sneaking up behind people with a chainsaw. I think by the time QUAKE came around, the twitch kids had emerged and there was no way i could remain competative enough to enjoy the game. I just didn't have the time to devote to the game or genre to develop the twitch skills needed. Tribe kinda brought me back for a little bit (Loved playing the Alpha), but FPS pretty much lost me completely early in it's lifetime.

If you get a chance, you really should check out some of the classic Graphic Adventure games. Everybody knows about the ole' Kings Quest and Space Quest Sierra Online adventures, but I'd probably suggest checking out The Secret of Monkey Island as a good start on the Lucasfilm Games classic entries. Best of all, The Special Addition can be gotten off Steam for the PC, or downloaded for Iphone, PS3, XBOX, etc for under $10 which has improved graphics which'll help you not get distracted by the early 90's era look. (And... it doesn't require knowing how to spell the commands you want to pull off. lol)
