Halo Series 6 Mega Bloks

I just picked up some new Halo Series 6 Mega Bloks figures today at the Walmart in Richmond, CA.

These are the codes for the Series 6:

A03092MM - Grey UNSC Spartan EVA (Common)
A05092MM - Purple UNSC Spartan EOD (Common)
A06092MM - Yellow Spartan Mark V (Rare)
A14092MM - Blue AC Elite / Cobalt UNSC Marine (Mystery)

Whoa!

So I ordered some black boots from "The Big Z". When the package came and I opened it, I was expecting my nice Giorgio Brutini boots. Lo and behold to my surprise, I got high heels. Navy high heel shoes. To be more exact, Lumiani Navy Alondra size 9.5.














Uh… I didn't order these. Is someone playing with me? This is the first time I got something other than what I ordered. Hmph! I must say though that "Z's" customer service was excellent. I called and explained what the problem was. There were chuckles and apologies. A reorder was made and a mailing label emailed.

Two days later my boots arrive and the heels sent off to the big shoe store in the sky.














Woo hoo!

AVerMedia Game Capture HD Unboxing And Test

I picked up a AVerMedia Game Capture HD to record my gameplay on the X-Box 360. It doesn't need a PC to record. You just have to bring your own HD.

"I Have The Con"

After at least 10-15 years the Lay-Z-Boy was sent away to recliner heaven. A replacement wasn't planned but there didn't seem to be a comfortable position to watch the TV anymore. So a trip to Scandinavian Designs was in order and a new recliner was purchased. A additional item was thrown in with the purchase as well. It was a little computer table. Now I can surf on the TV and WWW as well as sleep without getting up.

"Sulu, viewing screen on. Engage!"

G4 Hackintosh Update

Everything's been going okay with the G4 Hackintosh. It's in the living room connected to the 55" HD LCD Samsung TV. It's not getting that much use because the nephews are always on the 360. Which red ringed and was replaced with the Halo Reach Special Edition. Anyhow when I have the TV to myself, I watch twit.tv and my other media stuff.



I did change out the video card though. I pulled the 8800GT out as a backup if ever my 5770 gave out of my Mac Pro. I then replaced it with a Asus EN8400GS Silent. It was like $25 AR and very compatible. The forums all said that it worked out of the box and that I didn't need any kexts for it to work in a Hack. So far, I've not encounter any problems. I just plugged and played.
