Lego train set

Got some extra tracks for it too, will get the passenger train set at a later date.

Trains FTMFW!

You know those like Xerox boxes that reams of paper come in? They're like 1' x 2' x 1' or whatever? I have one of those literally filled to the brim with track -- over 100 feet worth easy. Then I have another box full of just train cars (my train is around 15 feet long and needs two or three motors to pull it) and then a third box for a few more train cars + a station and other random crap.

Yeah, I was a bit into LEGO trains as a kid. :lol:

Who wasn't? I really feel like there was something wrong with you if you weren't unhealthily into LEGOs.

I have a giant Rubbermaid container overflowing with my LEGOs somewhere in my basement. Not having to buy LEGOs ever for your future kids FTMFW. :lol:
 
Got shipment 1 of 3 of my PC parts in. And I really hate this camera.

Wow, I hate you guys with your lego trains. I could never afford those, always wanted though.

Instead we built realistic looking cars, trucks, and buildings. Oh, don't forget the hot air balloons! I will have to post some pictures, If I ever get them back out.
 
Got a MSI Wind, with xp, as well as a benq 19" moniter for my big rig.

Heres a picture, with a macbook pro for comparsion

wow, that's badass. I remember looking at that in the annual lego-book (which was a big event in the year) and wanting it, badly. Never got it though, it looks damn expensive.

edit: prices second-hand are still around 50-60 euros. damn.

Eight Giggum-bites. It was 45 US monies but had a 20 dollar MIR, though if this MIR goes the way of all the others I've ever used to rationalize buying something, it won't get sent in.

Nice, I love my CM690.
 
I have the exact same speakers:) *High five*

I honestly haven't hooked them up yet. I bought them for when I move into residence for university and once I get my mobo and everything for my PC I'll hook them up then. Right now we got a pretty rad 5.1 Altec Lansing setup on this pc.

I don't mean to be a brag...but the only reason I bought these was because I got them for 29.99 Canadian after a price match at FutureShop. I always go on redflagdeals.com to find dirt cheap stuff and these were something I found.
 
I have had MP3 players for some years now but not an ipod, I bought my first ipod two weeks ago, it's the ipod touch, well cool bit of kit, you can also use it to surf the net and use it as a PDA, there are loads of free programs for it you can download.
