Spend the weekend hooking up the new system. I was glad I had these babies delivered, they are freaking heavy man! My thighs felt like they had done an obscene amount of squats after shifitng the woofer around. I think the woofer must weigh at least 20kg.

So far the sound is not bad, but I’ll prolly wait for the speakers to get warmed up before delivering my judgment.

Oh, yeah those are rams you see on top of the box. Prepping my system for Hyboria, hehehe. 4GB of DDR2 500 goodness.

I had a quiet celebration last week, and was really surprised my free champagne turned out to be Moet! It was nice, just like the company I was with. It was interesting showing the 31 April voucher to the staff. Most of them had no idea there’s no 31 in April till I point it out lol!

Best part of the whole thing … no cake!! Finally, a cakeless year. :D

Or of things to come?

Long queues for free instant noodles. I think they gave out well over twenty cartons of noodles.

Finally got to watch it, and I daresay its the best comedy I’ve watched this year.

Actually, I think this is the first comedy I’ve watched this year. Oh wait … damn, I can’t remember the first one I watched already. Anyway I digress.

The women in the audience definitely enjoyed watching it more than the men. I guess the journalist was right, women DO enjoy watching men suffer. But what I really loved about the movie was all the hidden nuances throughout the show. Most of them are really corny though, but if you like corniness and did spot them, you’ll absolutely be tickled.

I did feel the movie was trying to deliver a message about abstinence though. But somehow it seem to tire of preaching and decide to heck it and have a bit of fun instead.

Oh wait, gee… maybe that’s what it’s trying to say …

Happy Birthday

I still remember.

Happy Birthday babe.

Zhng My Soundcard

modded xfiIt seems, these days, everything and anything can be modded.

I just got my Extreme Music soundcard made even more extreme, replacing the op-amp with a LM4562 and a Ruby Backgate (thats the big black thang you see sticking out).

The damage was $55, but I must say I can hear a difference. The vocals in the music sounds much richer and fuller.

Now to upgrade my aging Crossfires. These are the most likely candidates :
