Goinbigger Damn, that's not bad at all. I've got close to $2k in my new one and probably not that much more goodies in it and I had to put it all together! Don't forget that there's no monitor. I already had a 27" monitor so I didn't get a new one. That saved me around 250-300 Also no peripherals (gaming mouse, keyboard etc) as I already had those. Every little helps I have to thank my employer for putting me on the road so much recently. They pay us "per diem" and I have been staying in the crappiest, clean motel I can find. Then putting all the extra money away for my "baby" Otherwise there is no way in hell I could have afforded this!!!

GorillaXI What was the cost? If you don't mind posting it. I'm thinking of getting a new rig also. And same as you, don't have the time to spend building one. The total cost without shipping was $1,400

Cool, where do I get one, oh wait someone borrowed mine for "other" activities

Well after months of deliberating and procrastinating, I finally cracked open the piggy bank and spent a little dough on a new computer. I have been playing on a POS for a long time now and, while it was tweaked out to the extreme, it was still struggling to keep up with the current games, even COD2 Now all I have to do is find time to get the damn thing out of the box and start setting it up. I will post pics once it is running. (If my employer didn't keep sending me out of town I would have this done by now!!!) I was going to build a computer but in the end I realized I don't have the time so I went the noob way and bought a pre-built unit (and yes, I know building it would probably have been cheaper but like I said, time is also expensive) Specs iBuyPower: Core X58 Custom Configured Case - NZXT Phantom Black Intel Core i7 960 Processor Asetek 550LC Liquid Cooling system 12GB DDR3 1800 Corsair Memory AMD Radeon 6950 - 2GB MSI X58 Pro-e with 4xPCIe 2.0 x16, USB3.0, SATA 6Gb/s RAID Corsair CMPSU 1000HX 1000w Power supply 2TB HD 64M Cache 7200rpm, 6Gb/s 12x Pioneer BluRay Re-writer, DVD Drive 12 in 1 flash media reader Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Edition I hope to be using it soon

Saddest story, this made me choke up

3rdCdnInfty PimpedOutPete God, of all places you don't expect a tragedy like that at a ballpark. My heart goes out to his family. This is the second time someone died at a MLB game this year. This is the second time someone has fallen over those railings at Arlington. Fortunately for the first guy, he survived with broken bones. This guy was not so lucky (I think the other fatality was Dodger Stadium) I wasn't even a fly ball, just the outfielder throwing a ball into the stands for a fan to catch There have been numerous complaints about the rails at Arlington, that they are too low and too close to the people. I am surprised there have not been more tragedies And BTW, I just took my 6 year old to a Tigers game a couple of weeks ago and we sat in very similar seats so I simply cannot watch the video -
Some of these are funny - some are plain sad

Nice ones - Do they have Rednecks in Canada? LOL -
RDKL Hey Chris...I can relate to your frustration but dont let it get under your skin mate. You'll never be a bad a player as me and I wont give up. Cripes my deaths add up to more than your kills and assists and deaths and ping combined. Sure its frustrating as all hell but its still a bunch of fun regardless of how many times I knock holes in the wall. Come on the servers when I'm playing. I'm the easiest piece of ass in any Freezetag server. Besides...you was helping me out just today with stuff that I otherwise would not have known Watch out RDKL, some people in here are always looking for the "easiest piece of ass" - LOL

How to start a fight with the wifegirlfriend and others
NickTheGrip replied to NickTheGrip's topic in Jokes and Misc stuff
Some more I tried to talk my wife into buying a case of Miller Light for $14.95. Instead, she bought a jar of cold cream for $27.95. I told her the beer would make her look better at night than the cold cream. you know the rest...................................... ---------- My wife asked me if a certain dress made her butt look big. I told her Not as much as the dress that she had worn yesterday. ........................................ ---------- A man and a woman were asleep like two innocent babies. Suddenly, at 3 o'clock in the morning, a loud noise came from outside. The woman, bewildered, jumped up from the bed and yelled at the man 'Holy crap. That must be my husband!' So the man jumped out of the bed; scared and naked jumped out the window. He smashed himself on the ground, ran through a thorn bush and to his car as fast as he could go. A few minutes later he returned and went up to the bedroom and screamed at the woman, 'I AM your husband!' The woman yelled back, 'Yeah, then why were you running?' ..... ---------- I asked my wife, "Where do you want to go for our anniversary?" It warmed my heart to see her face melt in sweet appreciation. "Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said. So I suggested, "How about the kitchen?" ............................................ ---------- -
This is probably old, but I always get a chuckle out of these (I have even used a couple with my now ex-wife to great effect) My wife sat down on the couch next to me as I was flipping channels. She asked, ‘What’s on TV?’ I said, ‘Dust.’ And then the fight started… ****************************************** My wife and I are watching “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire” while we were in bed.. I turned to her and said, “Do you want to have sex?” “No,” she answered. I then said, “Is that your final answer?” She didn’t even look at me this time, simply saying, ”Yes.” So I said, “Then I’d like to phone a friend.” And then the fight started…. ****************************************** Saturday morning I got up early, quietly dressed, made my lunch, grabbed the dog, and slipped quietly into the garage. I hooked up the boat up to the truck, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour. The wind was blowing 50 mph, so I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad all day. I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled up to my wife’s back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, “The weather out there is terrible.” My loving wife of 10 years replied, “Can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that?” And that’s how the fight started… ****************************************** I rear-ended a car this morning. So, there we were alongside the road and slowly the other driver got out of his car. You know how sometimes you just get soooo stressed and little things just seem funny? Yeah, well I couldn’t believe it…. He was a DWARF!!! He stormed over to my car, looked up at me, and shouted, ”I AM NOT HAPPY!!!” So, I looked down at him and said, “Well, then which one are you?” And then the fight started….. ***************************************** My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary. She said, ‘I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 150 in about 3 seconds.’ I bought her a scale. And then the fight started… ****************************************** When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace expensive… so, I took her to a gas station. And then the fight started… ****************************************** After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver’s license to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home. I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, ‘Unbutton your shirt’. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair. She said, ‘That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me’ and she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, ‘You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability, too.’ And then the fight started…. ****************************************** My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table. My wife asked, ‘Do you know her?’ ‘Yes,’ I sighed, ‘She’s my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking right after we split up those many years ago, and I hear she hasn’t been sober since.’ ‘My God!’ says my wife, ‘who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?’ And then the fight started… ****************************************** I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first. “I’ll have the strip steak, medium rare, please.” He said, “Aren’t you worried about the mad cow?”" Nah, she can order for herself.” And then the fight started… ****************************************** A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror. She is not happy with what she sees and says to her husband, ‘I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.’ The husband replies, ‘Your eyesight’s damn near perfect.’ And then the fight started…
