My faithful switch, 16 delicious ports that were crucial in LAN parties and then my home network once I got broadband. Dead. This switch worked to the very last; it died while it was running during a really bad storm. The storm also killed my telephone. Bastard. All the electronics in my room were running when the storm hit and I was not at home to unplug them -- so I was lucky to have a surge protector (except for on my phone lines).

Last night I went to see Star Wars with some buddies. Jeff almost got himself killed driving his saturn -- but I rode with Dane so it wasn't too bad for me. The movie was great, it redeemed lucas for the last 2 crappy movies he put out. The only problem with it is the sappy-love dialogue between Anakin and Padme. Lucas is brilliant at writing stories -- but when it comes to the actual dialogue and in this case romantic dialogue, he is quite lacking. I dont see why people have thrown their lives away for the Star Wars universe though; When I was a kid I was a huge fan. I think its a form of escapism; Lucas began an entire universe detailed down to the different worlds and govt's for these people to escape to -- It is quite appealing, but at some point one has to grow up.
I recommend seeing the movie to you guys though -- unless of course you will get overly attached and camp outside of theaters for the rest of your life.

Dude, you sound like Marvin from Hitchhiker's guide in your old Deadjournal blog!
'I'm depressed and lonely'
Glad you perked up these past few years
Silly old Bumbo, you....
Yeah, that old journal's pretty funny. Interesting how people change.
Isn't it- - I did say some creative things in my old journal. . . Could prolly make a webcomic outta that stuff;
I think I've changed more than anyone I know over these last few years;
Hopefully its been for the better;
Yeah david, I saw the movie last Saturday night and I thought they threw everything together way to sloppily and didn't give enough time for things to emotionally develope.
It was cool though.
Me and my friend Robdeadskin saw it and we both almost died from laughter when Darth Vader took his first steps and did what he did, after he found out about Padme. I don't want to give anything away but that was soo effing funny dude. What is wrong with Lucas sometimes man.
Good to hear you're taking control of your life at such a crutial point, coming out of high school and all. There are lots of speed bumps and valleys to shake that control, so hold on tight.
