I haven't had the need. Sure, it's inconvenient, but I live in a fairly large city with a decent public transportation service. Compared to the cost of a vehicle and insurance, I can deal with taking a little longer getting where I need to go or just walk.

Rush Limbaugh’s Advertisers Facing Social Media Firestorm
By Adam Peck on Mar 2, 2012 at 3:40 pm
Rush Limbaugh’s latest misogynistic tirade against Georgetown University Law Student Sandra Fluke may be the last straw for many of the shock jock’s corporate sponsors. Thousands of angry customers have been inundating dozens of Limbaugh’s corporate sponsors, demanding that they cut ties with the program.
So far, three companies, Sleep Number, The Sleep Train, and Quicken Loans have pulled ads from the program, and several others are considering following their lead.

Other companies though have been slow to react, or are simply ignoring mounting feedback. Technology company Carbonite, online legal service LegalZoom.com and automotive company AutoZone have all been quiet on their official accounts.
We need to take a stand now against his revolting behavior. Sign our petition and let Sandra Fluke know that you are on her side.
So he didn't really get elected? Fine! I'll make my own school! With Blackjack! And hookers!
In fact, forget the school!
Beat me to the joke, huh? Fine! I'll go start my own joke! With Blackjack! And Hookers! In fact, forget the joke and the blackjack! Ah, screw the whole thing.
The smell of mothballs, festering feces and wrinkly betrayal reminds me of my grandparent's house.
I don't mind the smell of mothballs too much and feces I actually quite like but wrinkly betrayal; that stinks worse than a year old garbage bag, left out back of a butcher's shop.
I mean, a few years ago, we had hard drives that could only max out at like 20gb, and yet this tiny little card has so much more capacity, and at a much more affordable price!
I'm currently putting a load of music on one of them, and I'm going to stick it in my caanoo for a little bit.
(Since I got the headphone port fixed on it)
The other one, I don't have a use for currently. If I actually do buy another PSP, I'll likely use it in that.
(With the other 32gb, in a converter)
I'm also considering moving one of my 16gb SD cards into my 3DS. Should give it enough capacity to last a good while. Plus I don't watch much stuff on my Caanoo when I'm not on holiday.
(Needs to be charged a lot. And USB charging is SSSSSSllllloooooowwwwwwww.....)
I've been strongly craving a playthrough of anything at the moment. This week has been fun, but also mildly hellish, particularly the bit where I had to write a ten page scientific research paper in three days.
Thank you Tescos! (They had a £5 meal deal that was actually fairly classy)
I had some sort of pasta and sausage in a tomato sauce italian meal thing.
I don't know its exact name, but I can tell you the ingredients and what we did.
6 Pack Sausages with Cherry Tomatoes
Pasata Sauce (Cooked in the oven with the pre-fried sausages (we fried and added some left over bacon and mushrooms as well! )
Fresh Egg Pasta (got a extra spare pack with it too)
Mascarpone (mixed in with the pasta just after its cooked and de-watered at the end. Added some ground pepper in to taste)
Fresh Thyme (added to the sausage sauce)
Parmesan cheese (sprinkled on top at the end)
Also added:
2 Streaks of Smoked Bacon
Some mushrooms
Cheddar Cheese with Chilli (grated on top at the end with the parmesan) (£1.99)
Garlic bread bites (£1.34)
My god, the end result was just fantastic. Mmmhhmmm! Just glorious. An explosion of flavours.
My dad liked it too, which means it must be really good. (He's pretty nitpicky when it comes to food)
OKAY so, in Pirates of Vooju Island, tell me if this sounds familiar:
A loser pirate must save the island of Merry Cay, by allying with the mermaid forces of the town in order to fend off an impending bombardment by a rogue pirate leader, who is under the influence of a voodo curse.

idk if you know, but i think that game was directed by the artist for curse of monkey island. there's a thread specifically for that game lingering around in the monkey island board where there's a bit more info on the matter.
I'm getting only one day off this week. Same with last week. The plus side? 12 hours of overtime!

Yep, the wonderful artist known as Bill Tiller. Though that doesn't really give a reason as to why certain plot elements are the same in both 'Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island' and 'The Curse of Monkey Island', considering that Tiller had no say in the story direction of 'Curse', let alone 'Tales of Monkey Island'.
Seeming as both games were in development at roughly the same time, I'm willing to chalk this one up to being merely coincidental.
and then the next year there was a concept album called Voodoo!
...Which doesn't mean much and most likely, no one here has heard it.
voooooodoooooooooo
Heeeyyyyyyyy, I know that one; it was from Les McQueen's seminal album 'Crème Brulee'...
"Voodoo Lady, I don't mean maybe, black magic child."
"Voodoo, voodoo, you do; voodoo."
"I don't mean maybe, Voodoo Lady. The chills you gave me."
"No-one knows the secret of the black magic box of mine."
"voooooodoooooooooo Laaaaaaadddddddyyy, Ju-Ju, hey hey."
"Black magic child."
Yeah I actually ended up being ambivalent to it at best.
The thing is, it was a bit too ghetto. I grew up in the ghetto, but at this point in my life, with three degrees and an upper middle class mentality at best, that sort of place just doesn't do it for me.
Comments
I'm also really really tired. I'd be better at the "cheering Dashing up" excursive if I weren't a zombie.
Moral Orel.
Why not? I mean, I understand why Divten doesn't, but why don't you?

A wizard did it.
Because the universe is a cruel bitch mistress.

TIMING!
Something about your avatar looks, different, but I can't put my finger on it...
Oh, I get it! You got a haircut!
And a pair of hipster glasses!

Wow. That is scarily similar.
It also happens to be the second chapter of the game.
Eery.
