Nothing extravagant, just $40 to Big Pharma for meds. Still, anything to screw w/liberals...

I spent $135 on business supplies. $22 haircut for my dd and me. $40 at Walmart, $53.60 for ebay, $15.95 for Kona Coffee with 10% going to FR. Too bad the bank is holding on to my insurance check for 5 days or I would have gone ahead and paid the roofer $5,000 today. Oh, well. I did my best.

Fun stuff huh?

Surprised how packed the restaurant was, so once seated, brought my daughters in close and "whispered democrats aren't supposed to spend money today...these are all Republicans (!)"
Then several times through dinner etched big W's in the condensation building on their glasses and each time I did we toasted the President (with all those other Republicans).
I'll not soon forget this day/night :)

I also bought a car today. I didn't need it but always wanted a vette so I bought the new 2005 convertible. Then when out to the Golf Course to spend more money and bought a round of drinks at the bar in celebration. The course was packed, boy if I was still married my wife would have killed me for spending so much just to prove a point.

This boycott could easily backfire in their faces. What about the folks that were sent home early due to lack of business? Certainly they won't be pleased! What about the DemoncRATic small business owners (Yes, there are a few) that will lose revenue? I don't think they will be very happy with this technique. This protest could very well turn out to be Counter Productive.

Yeah that's a way. Throw it in my face. Show me up! :-)

Nice ride. I sure hope you enjoy it. Way back when, my dad had a 66 split window coupe. It was a fun car but I never developed much of a passion for the vette. Some how I wound up a diehard Porschephile.

You got taken. You could've assembled a machine similar to any of the ones they sell, with a more attractive case, for less money. Then again, I don't like OEMs anyway.

Hope the machine works out. I'm thinking of upgrading my Radeon 9800 Pro.

Actually, I have no intention of setting up a liquid-cooled machine (proprietary at that) myself (and, yes, I've built a eight of my own machines in the past 6 years, including two, recent, SFFs with an X800XT and a 6800GT).

I'd agree that I'd never buy an OEM machine from Cyber Power, I Buy Power, Dell, etc. (hell, even Alienware) but my friend has a Voodoo and it's an OC'ed, screamingly fast, rock solid, beast which is why I decided to try them for a change.

IMO, there's still no need for liquid-cooling unless you're a fanatic about utterly silent HTPCs. So you have a couple of fans blowing--okay, normal house chatter, let alone the music playing on your speakers, will easily drown it out.

As for Alienware... no one in their right mind should buy from them. They overprice as if they're a week away from bankruptcy.

I actually am fanatical about a silent PC and you can also get a much better OC on a liquid-cooled, rather than air-cooled, rig which is always nice.

Well, your rig. Hope it brings you lots of enjoyable gaming hours. While you're waiting for Resurrection of Evil, pick up Brothers in Arms next month.

Didn't mean to, just wanted to stuff it in the faces of any libs that would read this thread. After I posted it did sound rather ignorant. A buddy of mine had a split window 66 and that car was beautiful. By the way JLO I got my just rewards, we are now having a blizzard.

I have been saving for this for years, like a reward for finally getting my dream job, which happened in December. I am by no means rich. I know it sounded like I was bragging and I apologize, but, those idiots with their don't spend a dime day made me go out and realize my dream. I will not apologize for the golf and the round at the bar, though, that is a tradition for my golf group it was just sweeter that it happened on the day of the Bush was sworn in.
