Friday Gaming

Friday is upon me, but it doesn't feel like Friday. Probably cause I
will be working tonight and then maybe a little tomorrow. I am starting
to get grumpy. I was even chiding Best Buy last night as I noticed the
placement of their HDTV flat tubes are on the ground to make people not
see that it has almost the same quality as the more expensive HDTV LCD
TV's. Maybe I should go into professional gaming where I would spend my
time playing computer games. I hear they can make up to six-figures a
year by winning tournaments. I once knew a guy who played that "Golden
Tee" golfing video game every day. He went to Vegas and won a tournament
and got something like 20k for doing it. Last I heard he was planning on
buying a big boat and spending the rest of his life sailing around some
island in the Philippines. When I was in college my aspirations led me
to play Magic The Gathering and dreamt about winning tournaments. I only
won a couple and the prize was only free cards. Which in turn, got me
more hooked. Eh, it was something to do. Now that I look back I sure did
have a lot of free time in college. Go Texas Tech!

Thought of the Day
"They don't have a decent piece of fruit at the supermarket. The apples
are mealy, the oranges are dry... I don't know what's going on with the
papayas!"
- Kramer, in "The Mango"

I don't have too much to add. Depending on my parents, the wife and I may have some kid free time. If so, we'll probably go out to dinner and do something fun. I'll probably get a little yard work in too. I hope everyone has a safe weekend.
