What are you currently saving up for?

[Lieutenant Kije]

Do you have the patience for this, Mr. Ehlers?

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

patience for what?

Oh! look at that shiny object!

Just so you know, turns out a friend of the family is REALLY into Bonsai. It's hard to keep track with him, as he has so MANY weird hobbies like this. He's sort of like Wilson. Except that i've seen his face. And he doesn't live next door. And he doesn't spout the useless mystic trivia. Ok, he's not very much like Wilson, but he DOES know bonsai. so he and I will be having a conversation.

[Mad Dr Jeffe]

Some new CD's, a satellite XM radio for my wife.

[Mistress of Darkness]

I'm saving up for my wedding and honeymoon, but after that I would like to get a PS2. I don't think that's very likely though . . . like all newlyweds, we are going to be very poor.

[Mad Dr Jeffe]

mmm poor

[Fellfrosch]

That's okay, a newlywed's primary source of entertainment is free.

[Gemm: Rock & Roll Star; Born to Rock]

Heh, that's funny but makes me sad...

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

"Get thee a wife!"

Oh, I also want a digital camera, a new scanner, and a nice sound card.

[Mistress of Darkness]

lol Thanks Fell, but I could have used 16 more days before the pointed reminder

Oh, and I need a new computer. Mine runs Win95 and has 2GB--harddrive space, not memory. shiver I mean it runs Starcraft, which is good, and most of the reason I don't just throw it out the window, but . . .

btw, anybody have a Win98 SE license I could have?

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

I have a stack of them, but I don't give them out since I gave away my modem (to you) and found myself buying one even though I didn't think I'd ever need to.

The lesson is that you never know when you'll need even your crappy computer stuff. So hoard like Ebeneezer Squirell

[Brian]

New computer for me, as well. Well technically an upgrade... new case, new CPU, new motherboad, new RAM, new video card, new mouse & keyboard, new modem. So a complete overhaul. I figure I can pull it all off at just under $500.

But first I gotta pay back my parents for the loan they gave me when my car broke down. Five hundred washingtons for that too.

[42]

For me, saving for new computer would be nice. It's just competing with the desire for a new apartment.

[Mistress of Darkness]

Okay Saint, how much would you sell on for?

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

Actually, I lied about the stack.

Not really, I *DO* have a stack of legitimate Windows CDs/liscences, but they're all different versions. And, as I said, never know when you'll need them. My old WinME liscence came in handy during my last spate of troubles. So I won't sell them. Though I'm sure you can find Win98 cheap somewhere. Try ebay or half.com.

[Mistress of Darkness]

That's true. I also have a friend whose brother works for MS and at one time could get Win98 SE for $15. I'll have to ask her if she can get one for me. Thanks.
