UPDATES!!!

With all the hype that our latest Winter Death Storm(tm) had, it was sure weak. I know, I know, it isn’t over yet and we still could get a couple more inches, but geez, is that all we are going to get out of the monster storm? A measly 4 inches? Oooo, Death Storm(tm), I’m sooooo scared. Please don’t dump too much snow on me. Please spare me from the bad road conditions. Ok, I’ll stop. So, all the schools are closed today and I would have to say that travel may have been worse yesterday. Sure, it took me a little longer to get to work today, but that was because there was an accident on M-59 today and I stopped to get gas. It only took me about 15 more minutes to get to work. I could have easily spent 5 of the 15 minutes getting gas though. Maybe I am taunting the storm a little, but maybe I just wanted the weather monkeys to be right for once. I would have loved the day off and a chance to see how high I could get the snow piles at the end of my driveway.

THIS JUST IN: Utica schools are open. Congrats to Utica for not backing down to the winter bully storm.

So, my Ebay auction is going pretty well. As of this morning, the bidding is up to $595 and I have drawn the attention of one Nigerian guy who wants to buy my laptop for his daughter. He wants to pay me $1800 plus shipping for it. Yeah, right. A quick search of Google will tell you that this is a scam. Oh well, you know what they say about things too good to be true. Anyway, if you want to read a similar question to the one I got from my Nigerian scammer, here is the link for it:

Speaking of my new TV, I have spoken to a salesperson at ABC Warehouse and he seems to be giving me the best deal and I haven’t even set foot in the place yet. You know, they are the closest thing to wholesale! Coming in a close second is Hod’s Home Theater. Hods can deliver quicker and they even will set up your TV and make sure it works and you know how to use it before they leave. I don’t think that I would have any problem figuring out how to use it, but I do like the setting it up feature of their delivery. We shall see which way I decide. Does anyone out there have HDTV? How do you get it, cable company, dish, or over the air? Any good deals out there? Let me know what you think.
