I checked the stuffed cat database, Garfield still has 5 of 9 lives,

Maybe you can attach him to your new computer for good luck ! 

I've got some computer parts from Newegg on the way and if they all work, I should be up and running Friday or Saturday.  I can't wait to get back to gaming.  I miss it badly. 

I had been holding off building a new comp for a while to see if I could get a home loan.  It looks like that will just have to wait.

Here's the new build anyways:

I'm waiting for the Turtle Beach EarForce Z6A's to come out.  They look pretty badass.

For the rest I'll have to run in to Best Buy and pick up.  I'll have to buy my Nostromo and Logitech KB over again and a sweet monitor. 

I hope things are going well on the world of Nia.  I can't wait to see some of the changes. 

Until then:D
