Battlestar Finale
L.A. Times posted a Battlestar Galactica drinking game. Too bad Rich's Lost drinking game is way cooler.
In response to the author's query, more people watch Lost because it's called "Lost" and the cast aren't living on space ships. Yeah, I know, it's the sad truth.

New Computer
Just as Admiral Adama has accepted the inexorable truth about his dying Battlestar, I too have prepared myself for an upgrade to a kind of Cylon Basestar - pictured here in the form of this massive new laptop: 
I've transferred everything I couldn't bear to part with from the reliable heap I've been operating for five years. The last stage involved cracking into the DVD-RW drive to extract a Blackberry installation disc - pictured here as photographed on my Blackberry:
As testament to this old girl's reliability - I spilled coffee on her twice thus far into my seven month tenancy in the House of Fairfax. Believe it or not the coffee mishap wasn't the impetus for purchasing a new laptop. It had no effect on the old PC's performance.
So now I have a fully functioning PC taking up precious leg room, and it begs the question, what can I do with an old computer? I'd like to recycle this machine and put it to good use before it ends up on a Brooklyn sidewalk. MAME-ing it comes to mind, followed by decorative Pac Man table. Perhaps some artistic endeavor. Maybe create a pleasure bot. If any of my chums on google reader can think of something I'm open to suggestions. Comment away.
