[quote name='Maklershed']PlumesPixie was in a Barbie commercial? Thats crazy![/quote]

A couple actually, but we can't find the one where she actually has lines. She did some local ones too when she was a kid.

I might call MS and ask for my $50 back even though I know they won't do it.[/quote]

Lemme know if that works. I want comp'ed access too. :)
 
[quote name='Maklershed']You sonuvabitch. I'm sooooo jealous of you. I used to go to Fort Myers Beach for at least a week every summer. I wanted to live their but never had the balls to move. I'm also a big fan of Bonita Springs. That usually where I did my shopping down there but occasionally I trekked in land to the Bell Tower plaza. There was also a kick ass pirate cove min-golf thing out that way too. :lol:[/quote]

I've never gone as far as Bonita, but I go to Bell Tower all the time. At least, I used to before the movies got so damn expensive that I didn't have much of a reason to go anymore. The Mole Hole was always entertaining and Johnny Rockets is :drool:. Travel a bit farther than Bell Tower in the same direction and you'd hit where I'm at. Maybe 10 minutes down the road. :lol:

:bomb: Thats it. I'm packing my sleeping back and I'm heading to your house. I'll be there at about this time tomorrow evening.

So I imagine you go to the beach a lot since you only have about a 20 minute drive? And do you pass that pirate cove mini golf course when you do?

No. I did have wild mood swings though coupled with a bad case of depression. Although the mood swings could've been chalked up to being a teen and the depression .. well I had acne so bad it required medication, braces, and I was losing my hair, so you can do the math on that. :lol:

Speaking of braces, I was just thinking that I dont see people wear those anymore. Is there something new to take its place? Or do kids these days have naturally perfect tooth alignment?

This'll really get you- I don't even like the beach. :lol:

I do go occasionally with friends, though. And I know the course you're talking about, Smuggler's Cove, but I really don't remember if I pass it when I'm going or not. I want to say yes but I have no fucking idea. :lol:

Do you ever eat at The Fish House, Bahama Breeze, The Channel Mark restaurants at FMB? Those places are all money.

Chris Rock: The only reason coke and weed aint legal here in America is cause good coke and weed aint made here in America!

Heard of Bahama Breeze, but I've never been to any of 'em.

When did you used to come down?

actually, i'm working for an orthodontist now. they get braces but the start at like 2nd grade and go to like 4th grade, then just a retainer until around 16, when they get braces again, but only for like 16 months. they have a bunch of clear braces and a lot of things go behind your teeth now, instead of on the front.
 
[quote name='TFN']Dead Rising has some fucked up achievements.

zew, have you DLed that dvd rip of NCFOM?[/quote]

Dead Rising, as much as I love it, has one of my biggest complaints about achievements: being unbalanced.

There is no way that something like 5 Day survivor should be the same amount (or nearly) as falling a certain distance, or crossing so many feet on foot.

Every summer from about 1985 until 2000. I'm actually heading down there again this April or May. I'm staying a week at Pointe Estero (south end of Fort Myers Beach).
 
[quote name='lilboo']:rofl:
I saw the commercial earlier. Too funny!..and upsetting[/quote]

we're watching it and it's good. but the very first contestant shit the bed.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']All I wanna see from the new American Gladiators is the tennis ball cannon segment. The rest is just filler.[/quote]

they started with powerball. that was pretty badass.
 
Oh shit it started today? I wasn't paying much attention to it. I'm kinda interested because I used to watch it back in the day, but it just rubbed me the wrong way.

Nice to see that no one here is laughing at it or complaining, LOL

That's awesome. I've gotta say I really do enjoy this whole area even though it's boring as fuck sometimes. :lol:

Let's go clubbin', $$$$a.

Yeah, I grabbed it.

Looks good except the watermark is blurred throughout the whole movie, but it's easy to look past that.

That reminds me. I have that too. I forgot all about it or I would've watched it today. fuck. Oh well.

Off to bed. Night OTT.

Well, I just finished Folklore. It's got some okay gameplay. But now having finished the story I must say that it's very well written. I mena I thought it was an exceptionally good story. Worth the play through.

If you have a PS3, I highly recommend a rental. But it's especially good if you have a partner to play with. Then you do one half of the story as Ellen and the other can be keats. Then switch of for the last couple chapters.

It also has a god soundtrack. I dunno how Mass Effect got best soundtrack. tehn one for Folklore is so much better.
 
So after saying I'd stick around here and keep posting during the semester, I vanished for a week. The reason?

I got into a car accident on January 1st.

Here's what happened:
I was driving back to college so I could go to work the next afternoon. I went to switch lanes so I could change highways and hit a patch of ice between the lanes. I spun out, hit the guardrail and bounced off, and then, the part that's the real bitch...

There was a family in their car on the side of the road because they'd run out of gas. I spun into the back end of their car.

The good news is that nobody was hurt, and that my insurance is going to cover their car. Not sure if it'll cover mine - it's ten years old, and even though the damage looked relatively minor to me they might just try to junk it - but we'll see about that.

The part that I'm pissed off about is that I got a ticket for "reckless driving," which seems absurd given the circumstances - it was night, I wasn't speeding, and there were a TON of crashes in other spots and on other highways in the area, judging from the radio. My grandfather worked in insurance for 40+ years and says that I should be able to get it down to some kind of conditional speeding ticket (too fast for the conditions, even though I was only managing to keep up with the flow of traffic), but he also says I'll probably need an attorney...which I really, REALLY can't afford. A few of my other relatives are saying that I don't need one, though, and I do have a former uncle who's a lawyer so I guess there's still some hope there.

So, bottom line: I'm fine, car may or may not be, and I've spent the last few days feeling guilty/panicky/bitter about the whole thing. This will definitely throw a dent into my ability to try to find CAG deals...or to buy groceries, for that matter. Here's hoping my friends aren't up for letting me starve this semester. :cry:

Likewise. I was struggling for quite a bit of it, but when I got to the roof where you cross over and the speed zombies bombard you, I simply couldn't do it.

Thanks. I'm tempted to just pay the ticket and get it over with, but the points on my license that came with the ticket would send the cost of insurance up a lot, so it's probably worth a shot.

Glad you're okay!

Work wanted me to go in early on 1/1, just as that storm was hitting, so I was listening to the radio and heard how bad it was, and there was still a lot of places screwed up the next day.
