Then I am almost certain you have heard the devastating news Nick and Jessica have split up. LOL!!!!

I'm still reeling from from Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston breaking up!

Wait, wait, wait! I guess this is the problem one has when one only reads headlines. Do you mean to tell me that Alias is actually going to air this season? Surely the networks aren't that dumb, are they? I read that it had been canceled (via a headline) and figured we'd all be spared the whole pregnancy drama and Vaughn leavng the show and multitudes of other high school crap, but now you tell me that it's all happening? Dave, that was so not cool.

Oh, the Xbox 360. Have you heard that Micro$oft announced that 15% of all Xbox 360s are defective? There's problems abound, and if you want yours repaired you won't get one back until the new year, at least.

Glad I waited. I like my coal better, anyway.

$moremoney > $sense

:)

What gets me is that the 360 shortage has been orchestrated by microsoft to build up hype. Which has two outcomes, you have people like your friend wasting ridiculous amounts of money on ebay and even worse you get the poor parents running around like headless chickens trying to find one for their sobbing child.

And when you do finally find one they apparently just crash on you like all good microsoft products should

I'd love to have an XBox 360 right now but (i) I don't have the money and (ii) I like to wait a while for them to work out the bugs in the systems. Apparently the XBox 360 is currently experiencing crashing issues. Go Microsoft!!!

I personally wouldn't mind getting an Xbox 360; I don't have anything against Microsoft products. I just don't have the kind of money or time that would make investing in an Xbox 360 worthwhile. That's not to mention that I'd also need an HDTV to take full advantage of the Xbox 360. Besides, my computer can do everything a console can and then some. So aside from playing Halo 3, there's nothing the Xbox 360 is going to offer me I don't already have.

I still haven't got the PVR set up in the new house and haven't had a lot of time to spare watching TV.

I've missed the last several episodes of Lost and Alias. I can't say that I miss either.

I still hope Alias will get better.

The odd thing about the price of the xbox 360 is that it actually strikes me as...cheap.

I'm not a console fan, never have been, and so I am used to thinking in price terms for PCs, where a new nvidia 7800GTX 512 will set you back about $700; and thats just a single part, nevermind the processor, motherboard..blah blah. Consoles are cheap.

Is Bad Robert related to Bad Monkey? Or perhaps the inspiration for same?

I won't be spending any money on either the XBox 360 or the PS3. I wants me the Nintendo Revolution. With a subscription to their online service, I can play every single game that ever was released on any platform ever made by Nintendo. And don't go saying I can just get an emulator. I hate emulators. They never play quite right in my book.

But I did just spend a little over a grand on a G5 iMac yesterday. Beautiful little toy. Booting that puppy up the first time was quite fun.
