  • Getting increasingly comfortable with Ubuntu. Waiting for Jaunty to come out next month and hopefully fix my wifi problems with the new Linux kernel.
  • Playing Zelda.
  • Lamenting/celebrating the new Decemberists album.
  • Playing with GNOME Do, Ubiquity, and about:tab.
  • Taking photos.
  • Watching Tim and Eric.
  • Collecting all known online accounts and compiling them into KeePass.
  • Wishing Virb were more popular.
  • Entering Resounder into a WordPress design contest.
  • Flipping out over the latest Destroyer news.

The corner store has had NES, Super Nintendo, and N64 systems and games in the window for several months now, if not longer. I couldn’t believe they hadn’t been sold, until I went in today to look at them and met the guy selling them. He refurbishes them and sells them for sixty bucks apiece. Games are five bucks each, or $20 for five. He’ll refurbish your own NES or other system, including a new pin connector, for twenty bucks. I love this guy. I have a retro Nintendo gaming shop in my neighborhood.
