I played Xbox today at Future Shop it was some racing game with a very restrictive and small track and it was a dark city and I had a crappy car and the game didn’t look too good compared to my personal computer video games!
Comment by daryl 01.05.06 @ 6:00 pmDo you feel better or worse after making that graph? I’m guessing worse.
(And on another note, hey! I read your site years and years ago, and just recently found a link to it on some really old archives on my site. Glad to see it’s still around. Diddly on, man.)
Comment by jason 01.10.06 @ 2:49 pmHi happyscrappy jason! I still see you in my referrer logs as causing 404s. Keep up the fight.
You’re a much better blogger than I am, so I’m going to have to take some time and read all your riveting posts.
To answer your question, I felt better after making this chart. I was worried that I only had a few minutes of working time for savings/misc money, but it turned out I had a whole hour! I’ve since rescheduled my work day so that I use the restroom facilities largely during my Social Security or Mortgage Interest time, to really stick it to the Man.
