    This is most likely legit. I got in on a Frys.com bundle about this time last year that included Premium, Bioshock, Orange Box, and Two Worlds (exchanged for Halo 3) for $400. Best deal of 2007 for me.

    Is 5.00 a good tip for a 23.00 haircut?

    I tip $5 on a $20 haircut that includes cut, wash, conditioning, and styling. And my guy does a consistently good job, unlike the cheaper places I've been to over the past seven years.

    Fighting a bogus red light ticket?

    Are you from the South? I've heard that it's considered bad etiquette in the South to pull into an intersection and turn when the light turns amber or red. Up here in Chicagoland it's a fact of life for one or two cars to pull into an intersection so that they can turn when the light turns red...

    Large Gaming Centers near Milwaukee/Chicago?

    There's a LAN center in Naperville, IL... I don't remember the name but it's next to a bar named Pepe's that I go to sometimes. It's on Chicago Ave somewhere between Naper Blvd and St. Charles ave.

    Embarrassment?

    I'm 6'5" and 210lbs with a developed lower body due to running and basketball but pretty much no upper body, except broad shoulders. When I finally decided to hit the gym seriously about four months ago I found that I was only slightly embarrassed about my lack of strength. I had a 12-week plan...

    A game that REALLY scared you when you were young.

    Dragon Warrior I - Dungeon music + watching older cousin play in the dark + being 6 years old + green dragon popping up and loud sound effect = scared of DW1 for many years Ninja Gaiden I - Creepy (but revolutionary) cut scenes and scary music in level 4 = didn't get past level 4 for years...

    Xbox 360 gets Blu-Ray

    PS3's bluray drive reads dvds. I doubt MS would publish games on bluray as that would alienate millions of established gamers.

    Never played KOTOR

    KOTOR is an excellent game and should be played no matter how long ago it came out. The graphics aren't that dated, especially if you play it on PC. I remember 4 years ago I played it 1.5x in 2 weeks... during school time... it was damn addicting. I played about half of it as a good...

    COMP USA going out of business.

    The best deal I ever got from CompUSA was Conqueror 1086 A.D. in 1995. I spent an entire summer playing that game when I was 11 years old -- it only cost me $1.88 from the bargain bin (remember those sales?). It's sad to see them go since they were a fixture of the PC world in the 90's, but...
