Hopefully the pics will show up, I'm not the greatest computer person, sorry about the glare in the middle of the pics (if they work that is)

If I knew how to post pictures in the site I would just show you. They're actually kind of neat, one is called Best Friends and has Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, Goofy and Pluto on it. The other one had Mufasa and Simba, I think it's the scene where Mufasa is telling Simba about the Great Kings in the sky.
It's sort of mean no one on this thread told you how to post pics. But look you managed to it on your own :) .

I just received a new scope for my .270 rifle. It's one of those precision scopes where the highest magnification is 32X. It is really massive by being 15 inches long and a 44 mm objective lens. But the coolest thing about this scope is it has a illuminating Mil-dot reticule. I can't wait to go and try it out, I hope I don't shoot my eye out. :P

Yesterday, I got my copy of the long awaited Gargoyles #2 comic. It was definitely worth the wait, but I hope they get the next issue out faster. I don't like such long delays.

I'm finally Nintendo-fied!

I've had my Wii since November 26th, 2006 and have been enjoying it, so much.

My quest to find a Nintendo DS Lite finally came to an end, today. My daily calls to EB Games/GameStop finally paid off. I just happened to call when one store had just received their shipment. They received ONE Onyx Black Nintendo DS Lite and three Coral Pink Nintendo DS Lites. I wanted the Polar White, but, they didn't get any in. I didn't want pink, so, I asked them if they would hold the black one for me. They wouldn't. Some crap about first come first serve. So, I told them I was on my way. I left work, and made the 15 minute drive over. I got there, and luckily, they still had it.

I was able to trade in my Nintendo GameBoy Advance SP for $50.00 store credit (because of the special they are running), plus, I had a $58.85 GameStop store credit. So, I was able to pick up my system for only $31.30 with tax!

Then, after work, I headed to Best Buy, and, price matching to Target, picked up New Super Mario Bros. for only $29.99, plus tax.

I'm so happy! I'm finally completely Nintendo-fied!

Went to my local Toys R Us a couple weeks ago, and the Wallace and Grommit: Curse of the Wererabbit stuff was really cheap! Unfortunately, none of that huge wererabbit figure, but they did have the action figs of the other characters (made by McFarlane, I believe) for around 2.50, if I remember correctly! I picked up the only 3 they had, Wallace in his extermination uniform, the rabbit that becomes like Wallace, and the policeman. Unfortunately, no Gromit figs, but the cashier said they had just gotten those in, so I need to go back and see if they have more. They're fantastic (and big) for 2.50! Toys R Us is clearancing a lot of good stuff right now! I also got figs from Family Guy for 2 bucks: Brian's Cousin (forget his name) and Joe. I also found a Justice Leage Unlimited figure there for 50 cents (though they overcharged me I believe): Amazo. AND, I got a Batman Begins Batmobile Christmas tree ornament for 20 cents!

Also found a couple of great DVDs at Big Lots! For 2 bucks, I got the 2-disc Gidget Movie collection there, which is not something made by some cheap DVD company, even if it is all widescreen. Also found one of the Liberty's Kids DVDs there for a buck! And, not sure if I had mentioned it before, but I got my 6th Pirates of the Caribbean figure too (from the line that they sell at Suncoast/Sam Goody stores): Ragetti, the guy with the wooden eyeball.

4. I just went to a comic shop and had no luck finding anything with Harley Quinn but I have been thinking of getting into Nightwing so I got, Nightwing: Alfred's Return for $3.00 even.

I just got a large bag of assorted Disney character figures from my grandma, she got them from a Thrift store, they contained a fair amount of 100th Anniversary Toys from McDonalds which are cool, plus a bunch of Villains.

Yesterday, along with finally getting Cars and Kronk's New Groove on DVD, I picked up that manga advertised in the Cindy 3 DVD: Disney's Kilala Princess. Read it last night. It's pretty cute. Looking forward to the next one.

Oh, Jiminy, I've got those Harley and Ivy comics and that first Animaniacs! ha. good stuff!

I wanted to get all those new Disney comics, "Haunted Mansion," "Gargoyles," "Tron," and "Wonderland," but after I bought the first issues, I was disappointed to find out how far along Haunted Mansion was already! That's my favorite of the titles. Don't know when I'll catch up, and will probably have to use Ebay to do so, but I haven't gotten any number 2s yet. So surprised they haven't made a Pirates of the Caribbean comic! It'd fit perfectly into that darker new line of Disney stuff!

Really? That's cool. I wish I could find #2 of Harley and Ivy. I refuse to read #3 until I see number two..... Although curiosity did get the better of me just to see the first page to see Harley punching The Joker and shouting "Take that Puddin!!!' I was shocked and was like 'What the--??' and quickly closed the thing. I need to know what went on in #2!

Today, I bought TWO laptops at Best Buy! One for my Mom, and one for me.

Both of them are:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp ... 8043627581

Image

Hewlett-Packard Special Edition Notebook with AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-50 - Silver-on-Ceramic White, Model: dv6233se

With the following features:

*Windows Vista Home Premium

* AMD dual-core technology enables you to work or play with multiple programs without impacting performance; AMD64 technology provides simultaneous support for 32-bit and 64-bit computing; 256KB + 256KB L2 cache memory for efficient processing

* 15.4" WXGA high-definition widescreen display with BrightView technology and 1280 x 800 resolution

*120GB Serial ATA hard drive (5400 rpm)

*NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 (UMA) graphics with up to 288MB shared video memory; S-video TV-out

*QuickPlay music and DVD buttons; HP Express Card remote and mobile ear bud headphones included

*Built-in Pavilion WebCam with microphone makes it easy to chat with and send video mail to family and friends

*Long-lasting limited edition HP Imprint high-gloss silver-on-ceramic finish with inlaid wave design; backlit media control panel

*5-in-1 digital media reader supports Secure Digital, MultiMediaCard, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO and xD-Picture Card

*IEEE 1394 (FireWire) interface and 3 high-speed USB 2.0 ports for fast digital video, audio and data transfer

*Built-in high-speed wireless LAN (802.11b/g); 10/100Base-T Ethernet LAN with RJ-45 connector; 56 Kbps high-speed modem; Expansion Port 3 connector

They were $699.99 each, plus tax. Plus, because most computers do not come with recovery discs, anymore, I'm having them made at Best Buy's Geek Squad, which costs an additional $29.99 each.

Image

I also picked up two of the Logitech VX Revolution Cordless Laser Mouse, which cost $49.99 each, however, I had two coupons, which saved me a total of $11.00 on them.

All in all, I got out the door spending $1,673.77 (which makes each laptop, with the mouse and recovery disc, $836.88 each). Not bad! Plus, I get all of those points on my Reward Zone card! Geek Squad is going to make the recovery discs, plus boost the speed and performance of them. I get to pick them up, tomorrow. I can't wait!

From Circuit City yesterday:

Creative Zen V Plus 2GB
It cost only $99.99 but actually came up to $106.00 due to tax.

It's a great MP3 player, though the headphones are a pain.

Hey, for $10 each the price is right. Also with all the DVDs I buy I can't afford a Xbox 360, Wii, PSP or PS3.
