So strange I can’t help but convey my recent experience picking up a pizza I had ordered over the phone for carry out at the only Domino’s Pizza in Columbus, Mississippi.
Having called ahead, after some moments I proceeded to drive to Domino’s on Main Street and pick up my order. I always pick up, [...]
So, I make the mistake of ordering a XFX 6600GT AGP card. Monarch’s happy to take my cash, even though I later learn that at least one of the support representatives there is familiar with how often they’re RMA’d. That card shows up and is, of course, dead. For $6 I send [...]
Every semester, never fails. I’m about ready to stop going. For the price of a single bagel without creamcheese at Einstein I can buy two larger, more imaginative, better tasting bagels from Panera Bread on the way to work. It now costs me $1.38 for a single bagel. It’s less than [...]
That’s what I was reminded of, this morning, hungry and tired from arising early to park on campus, when I went up stairs and discovered a plentiful bounty of fruit, orange juice, and doughnuts for waiting students seeking guidance from the building’s only counselor.

I bought an XFX 6600GT from MonarchComputer. The first card arrived and was confirmed [...]
That’s pretty sad. Most forums just kick your password back at you via email and leave you alone.
Not anandtech. They seem to think you really care about your forum reputation. If you don’t remember your password — and who does if you’ve posted once in the past five years — you have [...]
Rarely do I rent DVDs. This evening I had the distinct misfortune of renting a DVD from Blockbuster. I obtained a copy of Hutch, which had many copies available despite being prominently displayed in the new releases section, immediately visible when you enter the store. After paying just over $5, I brought [...]
Updating a Windows XP Home box on dialup, I find myself wading through the nonsense that is Microsoft Windows Genuine Advantage. Before I can actually apply any security updates to this Dell OEM’d copy of XP Home, I have to download an initial Genuine Advantage package. Once installed, after ten minutes of downloading [...]
