I know what you mean. I've played guitar on and off and would LOVE for a game to really be able to teach me some new things (game + music is like a dream for me). It's just unfortunate that it IS so expensive. Maybe someday... *sigh*

Yes, the Fender Squire is at Best Buy only and is about $330 after you get the required Midi-adapter.

I swear, this is the first new console in a while that I can go into any store and find DOZENS of them available for sale. I was actually shocked to see so. But considering I got a headache from playing for less than 5 min on a demo unit, I won't be getting one for a while.

A lot of people have good points on both sides, however I know some of the people who saying "It's her tuition money, if she wants to fail/slack off she should be allowed to; that's her problem not the professors" are missing a huge point. It's true, let her fail and teach the kids who are there to learn, however this…

In that sense it makes perfect sense for things to be hands-free, but for something like sanitizing your hands in a grocery store or something, you don't need to worry about making contact with a pump for 2 seconds.

What I don't understand with this "hands free washing" bull isn't just for faucets, it's this new fascination with hands-free anti-bacterial pumps. "Never touch a dirty pump again!"...well...if my hands have bacteria on them, using the soap/cream/liquid will kill it...so what does it matter if I make contact with a…

Or, sleep for about 10 hours and have a bottle of gatoraide next to your bed. Whenever I do that, I wake up feeling great.

I was at a Target earlier today and they just so happened to have a 3DS on display and I was excited to take a look at it. Now, it may just have been the game but I really thought the 3D effect was super lame. It looked like there was just another screen a little further back and really had no sense of things…

I agree with both of you really. Kral2, I was probably one of the few kids who liked (and still do) Raisin Bran. But it is true that (for example) I have Fiber One cereal which is almost 200 kcal without milk, while my cornpops are only 110. That's a huge difference for someone who tries to maintain an intake of 1900…

It's dumb that people are getting all uppidy about "sugary cereals are horrible for kids!". Yes, kids don't need a lot of sugar, but sugars are simple carbohydrates, which a lot of "healthier" cereals have just as many if not more. It's also funny that a lot of "healthier" cereals have almost 100 more calories per…

Uhh.. "Loot" can still be defined as personal possessions and aren't necessarily stolen. For example, you've just won big at a casino: "Dude, Fred! Look at all this loot!". Nothing illegal there.

I would disagree with this. I moved into my apartment not long ago and figured out the shower in about a week. Turn all the way to the left (blistering hot), wait until it reaches that temp. Turn back right a bit until I find desired temp. Is it really THAT much of a hassle? I GUESS I could save about 10 seconds, but…

If you want to be a grammar nazi, it would be "Wore".

I wish I had time for games now, but classes are just taking over my life again. *sigh*. In other news. GO PACK! So happy to see them win their 4th Super Bowl. Made me really happy to finally see Driver get his ring, and to see Rodgers get his in 3 years with the Pack. It just shows how great of a QB he really is. I…

I was worried about my PS3 getting to warm in our little stand, so I cut out a hole, had an old 120mm tower fan lying around, stripped the black and red wires, attached them to a usb cable, plugged the cable into the DVR we have, and bam; cheap circulation.

@SKiTz: Well, it is when it's the game before the Super Bowl. :p

Pfffft. The game has a 1-2 chance of getting it right, so what that it's been right 6-7 times in the past 7 years. Flip a coin 7 times and you have the same odds of calling it 6-7 times as well. How often were the points anywhere near accurate? Probably not often. I'm sure it would have NEVER picked the Packers to go…

@SKiTz: Bitter much?

@Chestnut Bowl: It can be a challenge if you've never opened a PC before, but I would assume you have a pretty good knowledge of computers. It's mostly common sense of how and where things plug in. I think the biggest pain in the ass is attaching the power/reset buttons/LEDs to the motherboard. Luckily with the mobo…
